User Reviews

The app is widely hailed for convenience and up-to-date account data, including copy locations and due dates, with a visually appealing, feature-rich update. The main drawbacks are recurring login/authentication friction, unreliable mobile search (inconsistent results and difficulty placing holds), and occasional stability issues that prevent searching or reserving items. Overall, users who rely on the library for on-the-go access see real value, but core usability problems—especially login and search—limit its reliability.

Pros

Convenience and ease of use, with ability to search/select while on the go.
Real-time or near real-time updates for holds, checkouts, and returns.
Clear copy location details and due dates for borrowed items.
Improved, visually appealing and intuitive interface after updates.

Cons

Frequent login/authentication friction: users report being unable to log in or being prompted to log in repeatedly.
Unreliable mobile search: results are slow or don’t match expectations, making holds hard to place.
Stability and usability issues: occasional crashes or features not working, requiring restarts or hindering use.

Recent reviews

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.

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!

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.
