Changes with RBDigital & Libby
January 31, RBDigital will no longer be available to GCLD patrons (and those in the Marmot Network). But alas, Libby is expanding. Sometime in February, you will be able to not just choose eBook or eAudiobook but will also have magazines as an option. This means patrons can access digital magazines through Libby or Flipster.

Wall Street Journal
The Wall Street Journal will be added to the collection in the next couple weeks. This is in response to the heavy use of our online newspapers including the New York Times, Denver Post, and the 1,000s available through NewsBank.
