Chicago Public Library - West Loop Branch issued the following announcement on Nov. 9.
We've released a much-improved version of our Android app, which you can use to manage your checkouts, place holds, find new titles and more. You can also use the app to show your library card when you're checking out materials in person.
A corresponding version of our iOS app is already available.
