To access Libby (OverDrive) content, begin by searching or browsing the Pitt Libby website, select the title you would like to check out, and select "Borrow". To login with your Pitt credentials, select "Add Card" then select "Sign in with your library card."

Once the title has been borrowed, you can select the format in which you would like to read it. You can read or listen to titles in a browser or use an app.

If you select a title to read through Kindle, login when prompted by Amazon with your Amazon account information. Once you are logged into Amazon you can select the device (your Kindle, the Kindle app on iPad, etc) in which you’d like to have the book delivered before selecting to get the library book. Most recent Kindle and ebook readers should be able to connect to Wireless-Pittnet, so you can complete the final step of getting the book from your Amazon account to the Kindle itself on Pitt’s network.

More information is available on this OverDrive Help page.
