Digital Magazines
Did you know you can get digital magazines straight to your device for free with your library card?
We currently offer over 4,000 issues of popular magazines in our OverDrive/Libby collection. Titles are always available, and there is no limit on the number you can borrow each month! Magazine issues can be checked out for up to 21 days and downloaded to a mobile device for offline enjoyment. You can find the magazine collection in the Libby App or through your computer browser.
A newer addition is the “BingePass” feature in our other digital collection, hoopla. The BingePass allows unlimited 7-day access to hoopla’s magazine collection using only one of your 15 per month checkouts. So if you borrow a BingePass each week, you can have constant and unlimited access to Hoopla’s 90+ titles! Note that this is a streaming service, so an internet connection is required to read these titles. Hoopla’s BingePass is located under the “More” section in the hoolpa app.
Due to both a decrease in use and cost of the service, the digital magazine service Flipster will be ending on December 31, 2022. However, library users can find thousands of great titles on OverDrive/Libby & hoopla here. Ask a librarian if you’d like help getting started! Call us at 412-741-6920, email sewickley@sewickleylibrary.org or stop by the library.
