We are excited to announce our December release with some great new enhancements in Alma.

One of the major outcomes of the new release is the birth of Alma Mobile. Now Alma can be by your side while you roam the floor of the library, and you can access and work with Alma from anywhere!

You can download Alma Mobile for free from Google Play for Android or from iTunes for iOS.

Alma Mobile features include:

• Review the “Pickup from Shelf” list for a library location
• Filter the list by request date, request type, material type, location, call number, or destination
• Scan items to see where they need to be placed
• Track usage of items left on library tables and shelves
• Scan bar codes via the device’s built-in camera as well as portable wireless bar code scanners
• Hold shelf processing
• Social login

After you download and start using the app, you can enter our contest to win free registration to ELUNA or IGeLU.

As more and more of our Alma users download the app and begin to use it, we would love to hear your comments and feedback. Enjoy leaving your desk with our now mobile library management system.
