User Reviews

Users broadly praise SHARE Mobile Library as intuitive and easy, with convenient catalog search and holds across libraries and a clear benefit to both patrons and library systems. However, several reviews report reliability problems, including the app not opening or failing after updates. A subset mentions missing app-specific features like saved lists that exist on the website. Overall, the app is valued, but reliability and parity with the website remain areas for improvement.
Pros

  • Convenient catalog search and holds across multiple libraries
  • Beneficial for libraries and patrons, enhancing access to the catalog
Cons
  • Reliability issues: the app sometimes won’t open or function properly

Since the most recent update I am unable to renew the books I have checked out. I receive an error message when I try to renew.

I’ve used this app for a while and it’s been fine. Now for the last couple months I’m unable to place a hold on any books.

I use this app regularly to manage my items checked out, for both mine and my kids’ accounts! I love that I can so easily request books and they are available in a few days at the library of my choice. I do wish I had access to my saved lists through the app, but I’m glad that’s an option on the website.
