Bug fixes and improvements

User reviews

Works great

Overall a great app, works well for finding and placing holds on books, as well as for looking at library events going on. Do wish you could save books for later though and that you could look at similar titles for books when you click on them, like you can on the website

Search function terrible

This new app looks nice but is not very functional. The account function works well—I can see my holds, checkouts, etc in almost real time. But the search function is terrible. I could type in the exact title of a book and it will take forever to find and possibly tell me there are no results. Same for searching authors.

great!

Considering how few of people seem to use this app, I think it works great. It updates right away when you place something on hold, check something out or turn something in. I love how it shows the specifics of where each copy of a book is, including when the return date will be. I do wish it had a feature that shows related books (for series) instead of having to search each one individually. But regardless, if you use the library often, I think this app is great!

Moving backward

Previous versions had ‘New and Notable’ on the home page of the app. This allowed you to easily see what new books were available. With the update this is no longer there and has been replaced with a section called events and Emagazines. Nothing against events but I go to the library for books, not magazines or special events. Needs to be restored.

Five Stars

I love the convenience and ease of the library app. The fact that I can look up and select books while I am running other errands is a time saver. Let’s face it we all could use a little more time.
