You can easily manage your library account with our Spydus mobile app.
You can use this to:
- Use the Borrower Barcode option so you always have your membership number available – this works with the self-service kiosks in Solihull libraries.
- Check what loans and reservations you have and manage them, including renewing items
- Search the library catalogue and place reservations (now free for in-stock items). You can save searches
- Manage your personal details if you change address – please make sure your email address is accurate and up to date so we can send loan reminders and reservation notifications
- Scan book barcodes in shops to see if libraries have a copy of the book in stock.
- See what you have borrowed in the past.
To download the app, follow the links below. Use this basic guide to get started.

Please note there is a bug with Android 14 and 15 that will mean the app can't be installed. This has been reported to our supplier. You can of course continue to use the library website and catalogue and your library cards as normal.
