WCPL Mobile

I would love this app because of the ease of placing a hold, viewing book availability, and looking at my library account. But there is a big piece of functionality missing - book descriptions/summaries. How are you supposed to know what the book is about? I might as well just use the catalog browser site making this app pointless for me.

I was excited when I found this app because I’m constantly checking books out of the library. I signed in with my ID and password with no problem. And I have been able to access my lists of checked-out and held books and those work well. However, there is no sign of the separate list I keep of almost 200 books I want to read. Since I populate my Hold list from that personal list, that makes the app unusable for me. I can’t move books from it to my Hold list nor can I add books to the personal list from search results. There is also no sign of the lists of coming books. That’s where many of the books I add to my personal list come from. Did they not have voracious readers test this app?

I would be giving this 5 stars except when I was initially signing in the first time, the scan my card scanner did not work. But I realize this app is new and there could be a few bugs. Overall a great app, and very convenient!
