This just in from the Wyoming State Library… . We’re pleased to announce that the new mobile app for WYLDcat was released in both the Android and Apple app stores over the holidays. To find it, search for ‘WYLDcat’ in either app store. Users must log in with their library card and PIN to see their library’s version of the app. *The app has versions for each public library system and the community colleges. Users logging in with K12 or special library cards will see a generic version of the app.
To learn more about the features available in the new app, visit the State Library website at http://library.wyo.gov/wyld/support/wyldcat-mobile/
