Are you struggling to find the time to renew your books or to keep track of your fines?

Have you often needed to ask a question about your account, check when your books are due or to place a hold on a book from your favourite author?

At the touch of a button you can do all of this plus more!

The Hastings District Libraries app makes it easy to digitally browse your library’s collection, set up an account in less than 5 minutes, renew items, download e-books and e-audio with 1 stroke, including searching the catalogue for your favourite book and placing holds. The intuitive mobile app has been designed to make your library experience easier and convenient to use on iOS and Android.

Families have the added benefit of linking together digital library cards to manage multiple accounts with ease. A location feature lets users find the location and operating hours of their nearest library.

Keeping in touch with what’s going on at your local library is easy. With one swipe you can connect to Facebook and Twitter to keep up-to-date or to send a message to the team.

Download the app by searching for ‘Hastings District Libraries’ in your app store today.

If you need assistance downloading the app, please contact your nearest library and a staff member will be happy to guide you through the process.
