📣 Reminder: You may now need to verify both your library card number and PIN to access ebooks, audiobooks, and digital magazines from OverDrive with the Libby app or the Wisconsin's Digital Library website.

This will be the same PIN you use to log into the LINKcat catalog to access your account and defaults to the month and day of your birthday (MMDD).

Forgot your PIN? Instructions for resetting your PIN are in the LINKcat Help section of the LINKcat online catalog, or give us a call and we'll be happy to help!
