## What is Bookshire?

Formerly Your Own Library.

Ever bought a book you already own? Or lent a favorite and forgotten where it went?

Bookshire turns the books around your home into a library you can search, find, and enjoy. Know what you own, where each copy lives, and what to read next.

KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY ANOTHER COPY
Scan an ISBN barcode or enter one by hand. See book details, review the match, and check your collection for the same work or edition. Keep track of multiple copies without losing their individual histories.

FIND THE BOOK, NOT JUST THE TITLE
Give each copy a home: Office > Walnut Bookcase > Shelf 3. Search your catalog, browse your shelves, and move books as your collection changes. Add notes, tags, collections, and reading status to make it yours.

LEND YOUR FAVORITES WITH CONFIDENCE
Remember who borrowed a book and when. Record a return in one tap, with an optional reminder to help you follow up.

REDISCOVER WHAT YOU ALREADY OWN
Find unread books and get suggestions from your own collection with Ask My Library. Each suggestion explains the match and can show where the copy is shelved. Recommendations run on your device.

A LIBRARY THAT FEELS LIKE YOURS
A guided welcome learns how you read and collect, helps you name your first bookcase, and sets your name on your library's bookplate.

BRING YOUR COLLECTION WITH YOU
Preview and import CSV or supported JSON catalog files. Export your catalog in CSV or JSON.

A PERSONAL LIBRARY, WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT
Your catalog lives on your device. There are no ads or tracking. Looking up an unknown ISBN sends that ISBN and a random installation identifier to our metadata service for book details and fair-use limits. Cover images may load from their credited sources.

COMPLETE LIBRARY SUBSCRIPTION
Try a book scan or preview an import for free. Saving books and organizing your library require Complete Library, an auto-renewable subscription: US$4.99 per month or US$39.99 per year in the United States. Prices in other countries and regions are shown in local currency before you subscribe. There is no free trial.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm your purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for the renewal within the 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your Apple Account settings. If your subscription ends, the books you saved stay readable and exportable.

ALREADY A MEMBER?
If you bought Complete Library as Your Own Library, it's still yours: use Restore Purchases. People who used the original free version keep their existing free library features.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2026-10-20

Moving from Goodreads or Libib? Bookshire now reads their library exports.

• Choose Settings › Import a library and pick the CSV. Titles, authors, ISBNs, publishers, page counts, tags, and what you've read line up on their own.
• Libib exports that include movies, music, or games bring in just your books, and the preview tells you how many were left out.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-05

Your Own Library is now Bookshire, with a new look inspired by grand old libraries: walnut, ivory, brass, and arched windows.

• A guided welcome learns how you read and collect, helps you name your first bookcase, and sets your name on your library's bookplate.
• A refreshed design throughout, with a new icon and logo.
• Complete Library is now a subscription for new members: US$4.99 a month or US$39.99 a year.
• If you bought Complete Library or used the original free version, your access is unchanged, and every book you've saved stays where it is.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-07

Meet a clearer way to start your own library.

• Try a book scan or import preview before committing.
• New users unlock cataloging, shelves, duplicate checks, and loan tracking with one Complete Library purchase. No subscription.
• Existing users keep their original free library features, and previous Complete Library purchases still unlock full access.
• Your saved books and exports remain accessible.
