How-To . . . in WordsPub



The app has been tested extensively on Google Chrome and Safari. At this time we recommend you use these browsers to access the full feature set of myLibrary. We are continuing to develop and improve functionality on iOS devices (iPhone and iPad) android phones, as well as other browser platforms. 

NOTE: The app is NOT YET AVAILABLE IN the Google PlayStore or Apple AppStore.

Make sure you are running the most current version of Google Chrome or Safari to enjoy the full functionality of myLibrary.

Some features of the app are still under development (print-on-demand, calendar, expert directory). Please let us know what features you want and what recommendations you might have.
