Video request: How to set up the Kobo to borrow books from the library. Merci.

Thank you for the review. I'm a long time Kobo user and currently have the Forma. I've debating picking up the Libra Colour and I think your review sold me on it. I agree, as a Canadian the Kobo makes book purchasing and borrowing easy. As for my TBR list - it's the year of fantasy for me. Catching up on all things Sarah J. Maas at the moment.

Something else to consider: Kobo devices support .epub ebooks natively, Kindles do not. Calibre makes this less of an issue but with Kobo you can literally drag and drop your DRM free ebooks without the need of conversions. I love the Kindle as a device but them pushing their store so hard in the homescreen and not supporting open standards is unacceptable to me. I'm looking for a Kobo now, just not sure which to get (Libra Colour, Clara BW or Clara Colour...) The Drive integration seems extremely convenient too, I wish they also put that on the Clara devices, really shitty that they don't.

That’s old. It used to be like that. They changed it to actually accept epub files now opposed to mobi.

Kobo also has Kobo Plus which is similar to KU. About the same price, not as many books as KU but they are adding content all the time..

@macimassacre 2 месяца назад

Would you be willing to show us how to load books from Google drive to the kobo? I have a ton of downloaded ebooks and I’m about to transfer from kindle oasis to kobo library color myself & that’s one of the things I’m interested seeing in action.

@3choblast3r4 Месяц назад

after watching a dozen or so reviews, I'm really tempted to buy the color to replace my aging libra h2o. But on the otherhand, my libra still works perfectly fine and I don't really need color, I rather have a carta 1300 bw. Then again, I take a ton of annotations and annotations in color would be kinda nice. But if I buy the color I know I'm going to want the pen too ... and I will also need a new sleep cover. So now I'm looking at 300+ euro for a 7" ereader. And at that point I might as well go with 8", but the 8" kobo hasn't been updated with a new model yet ...

@nathalie8135 2 месяца назад

Love your personality and your video! New subscriber! I also have this device, I am like you, I like to have the latest eReader device! I haven't touched my Kindle either. The pen is great too. Works so well together. I finally finished "Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo" it was such a great book. Truly enjoyed it. Sad it's finished now though. I miss Evelyn, she's such a badass. 😂 What have you been reading and how are you enjoying it? Keep up the great work on your videos! Truly enjoy your vibe and content! ❤

Hi 🥰! Thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing! Means a lot to me😊 I have "The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo" on my TBR list; it looks so good! I'm currently reading "Yours Truly," and it is soooo good too! Highly recommend this series. Have a great day! ❤️

@AlexSedevie 2 месяца назад

Hi Mary, great video! I have watched so many reviews, but your comparison to the Kindle experience is perfect for what I was looking for. I have a super specific question I haven't been able to find an answer to... what happens if you annotate a library book that is returned to the library/removed from your device? Do you get to keep the annotations on the device, or do they get wiped with the book? P.S. Your dog in the background... SO cute. I had to pause, because I don't want to miss the device, but I wanted to appreciate your sweet pup, too. 😂

@marypivin 2 месяца назад

Hi ☺️ Thank you for your comment, it really made my day, and thank you so much for the lovely words about my dog! 🐶😊 I'm so glad you found the comparison helpful. Regarding your question about annotating library books: from what I've researched, you don't get to keep the annotations once the loan is returned. Unfortunately, the notes are tied to the specific copy of the book and get wiped when the book is removed from your device. Have a great day!!

Hey! Im assuming that when you annotate on a borrowed library book, the annotations dont stay after the book has been returned. Is that correct? BTW this was an amazing review, you hit every box!

Thank you for your review. I’m glad you are happy with it. I’m considering this ereader, it would be my first. I use my library app a lot (Libby) do you know if you are able to annotate in the borrowed books also? Thank you 😊 I’ve been watching so many reviews 😅

@marypivin 26 дней назад

Hi! I'm so happy you enjoy it! I believe you can't go wrong with this eReader-you are going to LOVE IT! Regarding annotations, you can make them, but as far as I know, they won't be saved once the book rental period is over.

@jasonmatthew94 9 дней назад

I am obsessed with Libby as well and Kobo is integrated really well with it (at least in Canada). I have the Kobo Libra 2 and almost exclusively use my ereader to read library books. I still use my phone app to manage my library rentals through Libby because I find it a lot more easier, but once I borrow a new book it gets synced instantly onto the Kobo and ereaders are so much easier on your eyes than reading on a phone or tablet. The integration with Overdrive is the reason I stick with Kobo instead of Kindle (as in Canada, as far as I know, you cannot read library books on Kindle)

@nat4465 9 дней назад

@@marypivin yes I have found this out. I’m a bit disappointed by this because I wanted to mostly enjoy Library books but it’s all good. I’m still enjoying the ereading experience and so glad I got the device anyway ☺️ thanks for the heads up

@nat4465 9 дней назад

@@jasonmatthew94 yes I agree with you, it has been so easy on my eyes I’m enjoying my experience with it now that I finally have the device but I’m a bit let down about there not being a way (as far as I know) to have your highlights and markups saved from your library books. Annotating is a big part of my reading process it helps me understand things. But other than that I’m happy with my new device and enjoying the ereading experience with books a couple of books I have purchased and I have transferred files from Project Gutenburg thanks to the Dropbox integration. All in all I am so thankful to have made the step to get it 😊 *and yes, once you do get the book from your phone it shows up quickly on the ereader ☺️

@aleksandragarcon3476 2 месяца назад

Hi, thanks for this video! Do you think that while reading your ebooks in BW the screen is a little bit yellow compared to Kindle ot Kobo libra 2? 😊

@marypivin 2 месяца назад

It is slightly more yellow, but I can only really see it when comparing side by side!

@nathalie8135 2 месяца назад

It's yellow to make it easier on the eyes. Like when people write on yellow lined paper. It's warm lighting which Kindle also has.

how about synchronisation of kobo device with kobo apps on other devices? especially when you don’t buy the book from kobo.

@marypivin 3 месяца назад

From what I have experience, you need to buy the books from the Kobo store in order for it to sync with Kobo apps on other devices. I have not figure out if there is a way to do this with books from elsewhere yet!

@hidamitaka007 3 месяца назад

@@marypivin awww that’s a bummer. I love to add books i bought from elsewhere and really bothered if it’s not synchronised at all my devices.

Do you adjust the brightness a little higher than a normal kindle? a lot of comments online talks about how dim the screen is than a normal e-reader.

@marypivin 3 месяца назад

To be honest, I do have to adjust the brightness settings a bit more than with the PaperWhite, but it's nothing major like the online reviews I've read while preparing this video!

@hannkg7715 2 месяца назад

Hi can I ask - if you touch the screen does it turn the page or do the buttons turn the pages only? If thats the case, this would be a game changer. I really dislike how my Kindle is always turning the page just becasue I accidentally touch the page

Are the letters not as black or crisp on the libra colour vs the kindle paperwhite? Some reviewers mention that for pure text, the letters on the black & white ereader are crisper.

@marypivin Месяц назад

Hi! Yes, there is indeed a difference in the crispiness coming from the Paperwhite Signature Edition. However, I don’t see the difference anymore; it is very subtle. I never reach for my Kindle anymore. You would have to hold them side by side to notice it, I feel like.

Great review. I am also Canadian, from Vancouver. I had to return a Kindle Paperwhite as I realized that it was not compatible with the Libby app, already on my phone. Is the Overdrive seamless with the Libby app on the Kobo? Are there a lot of steps to connect with your own public library page? Merci pour votre review!

Can you use Kobo to read e-books from the library app Libby??

I have not try it unfortunately, only overdrive!

@eightbitminiboss 2 месяца назад

Yes, does so through Overdrive the same backend that Libby uses as it's owned by the same company. Any holds and loans you have in your Libby account should work with the same library card when you login on the Kobo.
