Improved User Experience and More With New Library Catalog

We’re excited to announce that we will launch a brand‑new library catalog in May, designed to make searching, browsing, and discovering materials easier than ever! 

With the new catalog, you’ll discover: 

  • A new, modern, mobile-friendly design 

  • Easier ways to browse by genre, age group, and popular titles and more 

  • New tools to save and organize titles using personal shelves 

  • More ways to explore through staff picks and curated lists 

You’ll still be able to do everything you’re used to—placing holds, renewing items, and managing your account—just with a smoother, more streamlined experience. We can’t wait for you to explore! 

Timeline 

We’re rolling out the new catalog in phases to make the transition as smooth as possible: 

  • Preview Phase: Get an early look at the new catalog before it officially launches! During the preview phase, you’ll be able to explore the new catalog before it replaces the current one. Switch between the current experience and the new one as you explore! 

  • May Launch: The new catalog will officially launch in mid-May.   

What to Expect? 

  • The design and layout may feel different at first, but familiar actions—like searching, placing holds, and managing your account—will work much the same as they do now. View training videos to help you get comfortable with the new catalog, and check out the FAQs for answers to common questions.
