Tried Libby's #Passkey to restore a backup and, well, entering a pin was easier because the Pin method took all my library card details with it. The Passkey method did not. I had to enter all my library card information with the Passkey method, rendering the passkey method more tedius than just entering a pin, but I used a passkey tied to a database instead of a device, and now I love Passkeys as a concept, I just think Libby was trying to put the cart before the horse. I do love the idea of using them as an easy backup tool though. #Libby #LibbyApp

@starkraving666 I’m on a bit of a book binge and have been sharing the cover of each book I read. As most are ebooks from the local library (shout out #libbyApp) the covers vary

Decided to use the #LibbyApp and resurrect my Kindle 2.0 and discovered the lithium battery is permanently dead. Used #iFixit to open and take it out and have ordered a replacement from a random Amazon seller. Hopefully it will arrive in a few days 😐

Currently listening to "What's Our Problem: A Self-Help Book for Societies" by Tim Urban on Libby for free through my local library.

Can't wait to get my hands on the hardback copy.

The Wide Wide Sea

Other audiobook readers, this happened to me on 3 different apps now so I wanted to alert others of this. As I usually do, I look up what new books my favorite narrators have narrated. Now, when I click on the narrator name, I am treated with audiobooks with their AI clone instead of their human narration. I already checked. That narrator is alive and still is recording audiobooks. Always listen to audiobooks before you make a purchase/borrow. Even now, it is incredibly obvious which ones are AI and which are narrated by the original human. This has happened to me on Hoopla, Libby, and on Audible so far. I know the audiobook narrator I looked up works for Recorded Books. It would not surprise me if they claim that they will never produce AI narrated audiobooks and then turn around and exploit their narrators without them knowing about it.

I took the liberty of emailing the narrator about this. This was his reply.

Robert,

Thank you very much for alerting me about the clone of my voice. As a Black narrator, this deeply troubles me, especially since I did not make this clone nor did I authorize it's creation. I will be extra vigilant as to what publishers I work with in the future and will make my displeasure very clear. I cannot thank you enough for your advocacy and for alerting me. In a hostile world that's more than willing to embrace this technology, we desperately need more people such as yourself.

Thank you again, my new friend!

Still pleased Queer Liberation Library bought all my books so far! QLL is a free nationwide, online, Queer library! https://libbyapp.com/search/queerliblib/creator-1071868/page-1 @reading @bookstodon #Library #Libraries #Libby #LibbyApp

What are good #audiobook alternatives to #Audible? Their "10€ per audiobook" prizing with at least one book per month subscription is really nice.

Best I found so far is libro.fm, with 12€ per credit. Any experiences with them?

I tried #Onleihe, but they simply don't have the kinds of audiobooks I'm looking for. My local German library doesn't appear to be part of #LibbyApp or #Hoopla.

One of my favorite things about the Libby app is that I can subscribe to magazines and it lets me know when there are new issues.

I'm going to enjoy the heck out of PieceWork this evening.

After an online training on #ReadersAdvisory for Millennials and Generation Z, I made a mega list on Libby called “Romantasy” and ended up needing arthritis cream on my wrist today with all the mouse work. Overdrive findability is tough. Metadata is scant. Neither author nor genre searches recovered most of these. It’s almost like they want to bury your old content licences.
