Going to the library again

We had stopped going to the library because it was getting too hard to sift through books to find ones that fit our family values. I found this app on TikTok and my kids are so excited to be able to go to the library again. They bring me a stack of books they’re interested in and I just use the barcode scanner. We get to leave with a giant backpack of books and everyone is happy.

Looking for something exactly like this!!

Our family loves to read, and frequents our local library on a weekly basis! This resource will help us both to catalog books we have read and provide a helpful resource for others!
