The Free Mobile Checkout App Makes Borrowing Books Easier!

Post Published: September 22, 2023

Three screenshots of the Meescan app user interface.

Arlington Public Library is introducing a new option to check out library items!

Download the Arlington Public Library Mobile Check Out app to your mobile device (available from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store), log into your library account and scan the library barcode to check out an item.

There are three ways to check out at the Library: at the service desk with staff, a self-check terminal or with the Mobile Check Out app (powered by Meescan).

Mobile Check Out will only allow you to check out items while in a library location. The app does not work for the following collections:

  • Garden Tools
  • Hot Spots
  • American Girl Dolls
  • Energy Lending Library
  • DIY Items
Get it on Google Play
Download on the app store

In addition to the check out app, the Library offers two more mobile tools!

The Arlington Public Library App

Access the library catalog, manage your account, learn about programs and receive library news.

Developed in partnership with Arlington County’s Department of Technology Services, the app for iOS and Android puts the library at your fingertips, wherever you may be!

  • Browse book lists and news
  • Create your own lists in the app
  • Rate titles and get personalized recommendations
  • Search the catalog and library events
Download the Library App

The Libby App from OverDrive

Access eBooks, listen to eAudiobooks and read digital magazines.

Kids, teens and adults can read or listen to thousands of popular titles on their phones or tablets.

  • Download Libby from the Apple Store or the Google Play Store.
  • Add your library card, then search for and check out titles in the app.
