Update: Library Libby Access

Changes are coming to your Libby access associated with the Whiting Free Library. Libby is the library’s app for eBooks and audiobooks. Currently, to access Libby, you add your library card information.

The Change
As of October 1st, you will need to enter your library card number and a PIN. We have set up a default PIN for each person. Your PIN will be your ZIP code. After the change, when you log in to Libby, you will be prompted to update your information and add your library card number and PIN.

We emailed anyone with an email address with your library card number and PIN. If you did not receive an email, please email the library at [email protected].

New to Libby
If you haven't accessed Libby yet, you can download the app on your computer, smartphone, or other device using the app store. Add the “Green Mountain Library Consortium” as your library, then search for “Whiting Free Library.” There are two Whiting libraries, so please use the one with “free” in the name. You will then be prompted to enter your library card number and PIN. If you have any trouble, email us or call a library trustee for help.

Thank you for your patience as the town renovates the library and town hall. Unfortunately, we received an update that the renovations may not be complete until 2027, and we will send updates as we receive them. We look forward to celebrating the reopening with you.

Thank you,
Whiting Free Library Trustees

This late summer and early fall is the perfect time of year to save seeds. We are always taking donations for our seed library and many of our patrons "check out" seeds starting in January. Don't know how to save seeds? Check out you tube for a seed saving basics video or search "save seeds from (name of plant)" to get specific directions.

Libby is now fixed, thank you for your patience!

Hi Libby users, we were notified that there is an issue with the connection between our library system and Overdrive, which runs Libby (audio and eBooks). We are working on getting that fixed as soon as possible. I will post an update as soon as I have one.
I am sorry if you are waiting for your next read, and I hope it will be fixed quickly.

A couple of updates!

The town hall renovation project will be wrapping up near the end of August. Then we will have to get everything set up and ready to roll again before we open back up. No summer program this year which breaks our hearts but we are looking forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall.

Plant sale update: A few of the "yellow" lilies that were sold at the plant sale turned out to be orange. This definately was not all of them, we had many yellow lilies donated this year and many of them are truly yellow but a few orange ones seemed to have slipped in as well. Our plant donors are the best and always do their best to identify things for us but sometimes something just gets misidentified. Beautiful either way!
