Magazines now available on BorrowBox!

Great news for our members and magazine lovers! You can now find eMagazines on BorrowBox, along with your favourite eBooks and eAudiobooks.

That means everything's in one convenient place, all available for free with your library membership. From titles like Better Homes and Gardens to Women's Fitness to National Geographic and New Scientist, you can easily browse, borrow and read eMagazines straight from the BorrowBox app or website.

This change comes as we say goodbye to Libby, with all eMagazines now moved to BorrowBox. You'll now find most of our eLibrary content on BorrowBox — our most popular app. Which means you can enjoy more of your favourites in one handy place.

If you already use BorrowBox, open the app and start exploring eMagazines today. 

Not a member yet? Join for free and gain instant access to BorrowBox, as well as all our other fantastic online resources. You can sign up online or visit any of our library locations to speak with our friendly team. Join the library and explore BorrowBox today!
