So I can’t guarantee your library will have this. I DO know however that there is a number of libraries in Kentucky that have access to both Hoopla AND Libby and each one has a different set of books that they have access to.
Kentucky Libraries Unbound (KLU) is a consortium of Kentucky public libraries that share electronic resources. KLU offers downloadable material through Overdrive/Libby. From what I can tell, the libraries that are predominantly using Hoopla have access to Libby/Overdrive this way.
You will download the Libby app > go to add a card > Select Kentucky Libraries Unbound > THEN you look for your county. I believe it’s at this point that you add your card and pin.
Here are a couple of examples of books using the https://www.libraryextension.com/ and you can see that the availability is different. Same library card, different options:



Is something like this available in your state? It’s actually more likely a question of the county you are in versus the state. Hoopla is licensed individually by each library and Libby/OverDrive is typically funded statewide so if a Library prompts you to use Hoopla, you may also have access to Libby through a similar consortium.
