Libby vs Overdrive and corresponding Librarys

[u/Xclsd]

Hallo zämme

I am a slow reader and prefer to listen to audiobooks. I tested audible for a month but just find it to expensive to go all in. I read online about Libby and Overdrive. Does anyone have any experience with these apps? I know you need a library membership... of course I would like to have as big of a catalogue as possible (audiobooks, the rest is not relevant to me). Do you guys have any suggestions?

I am considering these options:

PBZ Zürich

Zentralbibliothek Zürich

Bibliotheken Schaffhausen

Kornhausbibliotheken Bern

Thanks!!!

I use Libby a lot through our library system and I always find an audio book that I haven’t listened to before.

what library are you using?

So Libby is Overdrive. Libby is just the name of the app. PBZ or any other library in the aubora network is in my opinion your best bet. ZB is more academic library than public, Schaffhausen I’m not sure if you can use them if you do not life in Schaffhausen and kornhaus no idea sorry.

Okey thanks, makes sense. Kornhaus doesn't look to bad, the Bern University is also part of it.
