e-magazines

The Johnson County/Olathe Public Library (OPL) system subscribes to Libby– an incredible service with access to thousands of magazines you can read online or with the Libby app on your iOS, Android, or Kindle device.

Using Libby is easy– but creating your personal account requires a public library card number. If you have a traditional library card that number will work. If you don’t have a card yet, you can apply online for an e-card which gives you access to all of the library’s electronic resources.

Various guides are provided below to help you get started. Feel free to contact me, smcnerneyoe@olatheschools.org or the public library for additional support.

See the e/audiobooks page here for help getting e-cards and Libby

  • I’m linking to the Johnson County Library e-magazine page because I prefer their directions! But it works just the same when you enter your Olathe Public Library card using these directions. (The two library systems share their Libby account.)
