Iguana Library

Search the catalog of your library, reserve items or renew your loans

Use the app to search for and reserve items in your library’s collection. With a book in hand you can scan the ISBN barcode and check whether your library has a copy. You can reserve materials and renew your loans. Besides that, the app supplies information on addresses and opening hours of all branches and you can phone or email them directly. Please note this app does not support all libraries. Check the website of your local library to see if the app supports it, if not, ask if it can be added.
