Nice little app but at some point it stopped working with my mac (mini) a few versions ago. The developer seems too busy or uninterested to fix the problem.

Developer is NOT being non-responsive - quaoar
You are absolutely right about how klunky and outdated library software is and how libraries tinker with it to boot.Library Books stopped working for me shortly after I noticed some changes on my library website. Stopped cold. Never worked again. I keep trying new versions, though.

I know I'm an impatient person when it comes to a lot of software and freeware, but in this case I must disagree. Back a few months the same thing began to happen with my own local library and upon emailing the developer, he ''fixed'' several times what kept breaking while someone in the library system was ''tinkering'' with what is generally really badly developed and arcane software running the library system. Anyway, after several attempts, apparently things finally stabilized and I've been once again a long time without incident. Before that I had been using Library Books for a couple years.Long story short: There are a lot of libraries here and abroad, not to mention library systems, add to that stupidly designed software running it, one can imagine just how daunting trying to keep LB up and working for everyone must be.
All in all, for a one-of-a-kind freeware, this ''ain't'' bad.
