Overdrive Magazines

The Nassau Digital Doorway, a service of OverDrive, includes magazines as well as ebooks and audiobooks. Download digital magazines through either the Libby app or view them in a web browser.

Magazines may be checked out for 21 days and are renewable. Magazine checkouts do not count toward a patron’s maximum number of checkouts on Overdrive.

On Wednesday, February 23, 2022, the OverDrive app will no longer be available for download on the Apple App Store, Google Play, and the Microsoft Store.

Although no longer available for new downloads starting that day, current OverDrive app users will be able to continue using the app for the time being, but should transition to the Libby app, as the OverDrive app will be decommissioned later in the year.
