If Libby has been asking you for a PIN, don't worry! It's not Libby trying to hack the mainframe, it's a new step Libby added to keep things a bit more secure. Your PIN should be the same PIN you use with your library card, and if you're having any trouble, give us a shout! www.mylibrary.us/contact
