Links to extend to google, Wikipedia etc are also provided. The definition uses the Oxford Dictionary as well as ‘topic’ results from Duck Duck Go which are amazing succinct summaries with related topics also being surfaced. Whilst reading a book, you can highlight passages or look up the meaning of words and phrases. There is a history and timeline of the various books you have borrowed, placed on hold and returned which is already proving useful. You can add cards at multiple libraries and manage the loans and holds across all seamlessly. This app is brilliant for its main purpose, borrowing and reading library books, but also all the supporting features are pretty solid too.
