Support Local Libraries
Love supporting my local library!
No Longer Good
This app does not work anymore so you should delete it from your phone because it’s just taking up space they are going to develop a new one, but this one is now out of service for good.
Good app, bad update
This is SUCH a good app for conveniently accessing library services and putting books on hold, but it’s become almost unusable since the last major update. It no longer keeps you automatically signed in, instead making you log in every time you use the app. Half the time I try to log in, it says it’s unable to do that even when I use the same information every time. Then it magically works again a few hours later.
Basically, the app is great when it lets you use it, but it’s a coin toss whether or not I’ll even be able to open it after the last update.

Good but
I’ve really liked using the app, but all of a sudden today, I noticed that I can no longer see the due dates of items when I search for them. I liked seeing the due dates before I put a hold on an item so I can gauge how long I’ll have to wait for it. I’m really unhappy about this. If it’s a privacy thing I don’t get it, as I will have no idea who has the item based on a due date. Ridicule. Please return it to normal!

Great app, Filter feature broken
I really like this app. It makes borrowing stuff from the library much easier. I did notice that since the latest app update the filtering and cancel buttons no longer work. Anyone else having this problem?
great
easy to put books on hold, and see what’s available.
Crashes all of the time!
Great app when it works; which isn't very often. I have to delete it and relaunch it all of the time.
Helpful to me
This has been a very useful little app for me to have! As an educator and parent ( and book junkie) the app's search, hold and "location at" functions are a lifesaver.
So Handy!
I love having this app on my phone; it makes my life so much easier. I love that I can find books, audiobooks, and other forms of media for every member of my family without having to travel to the library all the time and without having to look on the website. We have a seemingly endless amount of books on hold at any given time, and I love that you can renew the books you have currently checked out with a quick visit to the app. Definitely worth the price ;)

I hate it
It's clunky, unintuitive, and unpleasant to use. Perhaps if you're reading popular, current fiction, it might be ok, but for finding any sort of even semi-obscure title, it's horrendous. I hate it so much, tomorrow I'm going to visit my local branch and see if there is any kind of public feedback committee I can join and tell them how horrible it is. It's so bad, pirating books looks attractive by comparison, and that idea revolts me.

Love this app!
This app has thousands of ebooks and audiobooks that you can read/ listen to in your browser or download so you can read wherever. It will automatically return them for you so you don't acquire late fees! 📚📚📚 Free and easy

Adding the option of putting the card with barcode in my apple passbook would be a great convenience.
What's not to love?
Easy access to my library account. Looking books up is a breeze and adding things to my hold list any time. Excellent!
Trouble with the last update
I really loved this app, before the last update. It was easy to use and I used it frequently. Now the app always crashes while trying to open, which means I can't use it anymore. Please fix! It is a great app!
Really love this app!!
I don't have enough good words to say about this Omaha Public Library app. It makes searching for a new book, CD, audiobook, movie, etc. so very easy.
Did the library just order something new? Let's find out! Did it just arrive at the library? I don't know, but this app will tell me.
It is so all-inclusive. I love that I can add books or music to my "For Later" list instead of adding it to my list of hold requests now. I can also see where I am on a specific waiting list and if it is being transferred to my chosen branch location. Thank you OPL for giving your patrons such a powerful tool.

Good
I love this app!
Easy way to find books, CDs and movies available at the library. The recent additions feature is great and the app is an easy way to get updates on your ordered items.
Excellent
Extremely user friendly, simplistic design, and absolutely worth getting. Better than the website, I won't even use the website anymore!
Useful app
Really helps to be able to quickly look up branch hours. Handy way to keep track of books checked out and easy to place a hold on books I want to read.
