If your library uses Atriuum as its cataloging software, you can download Librista - the companion app for patrons. With Librista, you can search the library’s online catalog and view your items out, renew and reserve items, create book lists, and more.
To begin, use the Library Locator to find your Atriuum library by location or searching. To log on, enter the same credentials you normally use to access your library’s account. Based on your library’s policies, you may be able to register for a new account.
Librista features:
● View trending and newly added items.
● Access eBooks if your library partners with other providers.
● Place holds on books, DVDs, etc.
● Watch subjects, authors, or series to be notified if your library acquires new items.
● Save items and categorize them in book lists, such as Favorites, To Be Read, etc.
● Find out about community groups/events if your library posts this information.
● View account information, including items out, fines, etc.
● Set preferences for when you receive alerts (based on your library’s notification policies).
● Scan ISBNs to see if your library has a specific book before you purchase it.
● Switch between different catalogs if you sometimes visit other libraries in your area.
Confused. Don't understand the point of this app. Can't log in. Says to contact your local library about that. I did and the library assistant didn't know what I was talking about. Her exact words were "I'm not familiar with that, is Librista one of those electronic reading apps?" Told her I didn't think so. Looks like you can see the inventory of what your library has and reserve items etc. Reply to librista: I did use those credentials and I can't log in.
App will not load all the way so you can sign in just spins like its trying to load every now and then you can get sign on page but says have server issues this has been like this for two weeks . PLEASE FIX APP.
Some what a loseing battle.
This app is... Useless? You can see your library hours and a handful of trending books, but there's no way to actually view an online catalog of books available there. There's no menu for it, no book genres, no author lookup, nothing. What's the point of this app?
Great support when I had problems with the app. It's working great now!
Absolutely love this! You get access to so many books!
Useless because no one seems to be able to log in.
With 2.3.7, Librista provides a more stable experience to patrons. Recent bug fixes address lost reading history and server/loading issues. New features include the ability to apply for library cards online (if your library allows it) and the savings widget (view your community’s annual savings from borrowing rather than purchasing items).
