As of March 26, 2019 the existing Atlantic County Library System mobile app is no longer be available. However, because we understand the value and ease of a mobile friendly app, we are in the process of creating a more interactive one for our patrons.

Here's what to look forward to in the new mobile app:

• Updated and responsive design
• Easier navigation and searching
• Straightforward account management features
• Enhanced integration with our Catalog, digital media and databases
• Modernized programming and event calendar with registration capabilities
• Future improvements include notifications for holds, due date reminders, and upcoming events

The changeover will take some time but the goal is to launch the new app by summer. In the meantime, you can always search our catalog or log into your account from your PC or mobile device's browser to place holds and renew items.

We understand and apologize for the inconvenience this will cause those of you who have become so dependent on ACLS’s app. However, the ultimate objective is to enrich your user experience and we know this change will do that.

Egg Harbor City may be the smallest branch in the Atlantic County Library System but we have a big heart for our community and our local talent. Currently, we are honored to showcase the beautiful and unique art work of Tom Peterson and Ann Fox. Both are long time patrons and Egg Harbor City residents who have generously donated pieces for exhibit.

Service station owner Tom Peterson imaginatively uses car parts and scrap metal as well as everyday metal objects for his sculptures.

Tom’s Lady Liberty is fashioned with forks, nuts, bolts, washers, screws and even a rivet from the Ben Franklin Bridge. For Magic Tree House, car exhaust shields, bicycle chains, muffler clamps, and other scrap metals come together to create magical quality.

When not focused on her art, Ann Fox enjoys sewing, baking (often treating the Egg Harbor City book club), and walking around  her  working Cranberry Farm. Ann's pencil drawing illustrates her appreciation for detail as well as libraries and the pursuit of knowledge through reading.

We invite you to come by to peruse their art and our shelves.

The Atlantic County Library System has two collections for our eBooks and eAudiobooks resources – OverDrive and Axis 360.  Some book titles are available in both platforms and some in just one or the other. Wouldn't the ability to search both our online collections in one place help save you time and reduce the chance of missing a great read? Well now you can.

Users of Atlantic County Library System's online catalog can now search both our e-Collections for availability. Even better, ACLS cardholders can place a hold or checkout a title directly from the catalog.

Reading an eBook, or listening to an eAudiobook, will still require downloading it to a PC or mobile device once it is checked out – a message will instruct the user to do that. For instructions on how to use these new features read our tutorial "ACLS Online Catalog ."
