FBCL Launches New Mobile “PAC” for electronic devices

Smartphones are about to get a lot smarter! Fort Bend County Libraries announces the addition of a new feature – Mobile PAC – to its online catalog system! Library patrons can now search the catalog and manage their library accounts “on the go” with their iPhone or Android device.

FBCL’s new Mobile PAC (Public Access Catalog), is a web-based public-access library catalog that has been optimized for mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad, Blackberry, Android, Windows Mobile phone, and many other smart devices.

There is no need to download an app. When patrons access FBCL’s website (www.fortbend.lib.tx.us) with their mobile device, the website will automatically recognize that they are using a mobile device, and will switch to the mobile view.

Mobile PAC allows patrons to search the catalog, view their account, renew items, place holds, check library hours, and view new and popular titles.

For more information, ask at any of the branch libraries, or call the library’s Public Information Office at 281-341-2677.
