The Solus library app offers a powerful, flexible platform that connects communities with library services anytime, anywhere. What truly sets our app apart is its highly customisable home screen and dynamic home tabs. These features give libraries control over how collections are presented and discovered.
A library experience tailored to every community
The Solus Library App is designed to be more than just a catalogue in your pocket. It brings together collections, events, account management and more into one seamless interface.
Libraries can fully customise the look and feel of the app – from branding and colours to layout and navigation. This flexibility is especially valuable for library systems and consortia, where each branch can maintain its own unique presence within a shared platform.
The power of customisable home tabs
At the heart of our app’s user experience is its dynamic home tabs. A feature that transforms how users interact with library collections.
Rather than a static homepage, libraries can configure tabs to highlight what matters most to their community. Whether that’s new releases, staff picks, digital resources, or upcoming events, everything can be displayed in an engaging way.
The app offers a wide range of tab configurations and display options, enabling libraries to:
- Showcase themed collections (e.g. “Summer Reads” or “Local Authors”)
- Promote specific formats like eBooks, audiobooks, or physical titles
- Highlight popular or newly added items
- Create dedicated spaces for events, services or announcements
These options make it easy to present collections in a way that feels modern, intuitive and most importantly they encourage users to explore the app. In fact, the platform supports over 25 different home screen customisation options, giving libraries the tools to continuously refresh and refine how their collections are displayed.
The Solus Library App empowers libraries to move beyond static digital catalogues and create meaningful user experiences which can adapt quickly to community needs. The result? A library app that inspires discovery and provides a memorable user experience.
