The Library Corporation (TLC) is thrilled to announce the latest version of TLC.Go! is now available to customers. The feature-rich mobile app allows patrons to gain access to Library and Media resources using their CARL.Solution, Library.Solution, and Library.Solution for Schools integrated library systems in the public, K-12, and academic library markets. The newest version showcases exciting features including an updated user interface, reading tracker, Chromebook support, and additional language options.

Originally launched in September 2021, TLC.Go! provides Android and iOS users access to their favorite library services, including a digital library card that can support linked accounts, the ability to search the catalog, connection to curbside services, and support for 24 languages. Library staff can also enjoy the highly configurable Content Management System (CMS) allowing for changes in logos, colors, menu layouts, and more.
