myLIBRO is out...
We regret to announce that access to the myLIBRO app will expire at the end of November. Though we enjoy its features and recognize its benefits, issues involving our current budget, ILS (Integrated Library System) integration, and limited access for certain patrons has caused us to reconsider our subscription.
We apologize deeply for the inconvenience, but we are excited to say that we are now in the process of developing our very own app, customized for our specific needs and accessible to ALL library patrons.
but the CPL app is in!
