The App For Junior Librarian.net and Eclipse.net
iMLS is an educational mobile app that allows staff, students, and even parents to access their school library from their Android devices. Any school using Junior Librarian.net or Eclipse.net for their library can make use of iMLS in order to check the online library and do their transactions on it, without having to physically visit the place. If your school falls under these requirements, you can try out the iMLS app. However, you should know that this app isn’t always reliable.
The Library Online
Educational mobile apps can include ones that let you access learning websites or even an archive of information with just a few taps. Some are interactive apps with quizzes and such, some just provide cool facts you’ve likely never heard of before, while others are for online services that can usually be accessed via a web browser. One of these services is commonly for online libraries that schools make use of alongside their physical copies of books. As such, schools and the websites themselves collaborate in order to make the libraries easily accessible and convenient for its users—which is where mobile apps for them come in. iMLS is just one of the many apps that cater to this purpose and is geared towards the Junior Librarian.net and Eclipse.net websites.
Now on Your Phone
Using iMLS, you can check out your school’s online library on your phone. All of your library’s resources will appear listed on the app and you can interact with it the same way you interact with your school library. The app displays any latest news from your library and shows the Top Ten, New Arrivals, Latest Returns, and Book of the Week titles. You can even get recommendations on what to read next based on your past loans. If you’re a student, you can leave reviews for the books you’ve read, just like other book catalog websites. You can also reserve any books you’d like and renew the ones you’ve borrowed, as well. There are tons of other materials available in the library, like educational videos and even interviews of authors. Plus, parents can also track borrowing patterns for their children and see their past loan information. If you’re a library staff, on the other hand, you can use iMLS’ tools to Catalog, Issue, and Return resources.
Just Visit the Library
iMLS should be easy to use since all you need is your username, password, and school postcode in order to start using it. However, it’s actually a disappointing library app to use and mostly just wastes your time and uses up too many resources from your phone. It keeps crashing and even librarians and admins are having great trouble with it. You might be better off going to the library yourself.
