24-Hour Library

24/7, We’ve Got You Covered! Read, Watch, and Listen for Free

Did you know you can access free books, movies, and more—anytime, anywhere—with your Red Bank Public Library card?

Libby

Libby is the library reading app and is the best way to instantly access books, audiobooks, magazines and read-along books, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! 

Libby is available to use on smartphones, tablets, and Kindle devices. When you download Libby to your device, follow the prompts to connect your Library card to the app. From there, you can immediately begin browsing for books. And, just like at the Library, Libby lets you place holds, check-out, read, and return books. Libby even lets you connect multiple Library cards to your account! 

Download Libby by visiting the App Store or Google Play Store, and search Libby.
