  • Tablet and phone screens with text "Library App Available"

    PCLC Libraries App Available

    Good news! Our original Polk County Library Cooperative (PCLC) Libraries app is working once again and is available for use while we continue the process of replacing it with a new library app.

    If you still have the app installed on your device, you should now be able to log in and resume use with accurate, up-to-date information about your checkouts and holds. If you removed the app from your device, it is currently available in the Apple store and should be available in the Google and Android stores in the next few days.

    We are continuing to work with our vendor on our new, next-generation library app. When it is released, the new app will seamlessly upgrade and replace the PCLC Libraries app on any devices where it is already installed.
