Concurrently, the library introduced the iPhone application TECH NTK which allows patrons to check the availability of library materials, save catalog records, send them by email, and see an overview of their account. With TECH NTK, you can also see what you have checked out and see when your library registration expires. It's available for free at the AppStore; an Android version is in progress.
Our web team is currently working on further enhancement of functionality and user experience, including:
- Adding more options to the new books feature
- Extending utility and user-friendliness of the eResources list
- Expanding current/adding additional subject expert guides and supplementary instructional materials
- Facilitating accessible access for all patrons, including those using screen readers
