SWAN Libraries
The vendors that work with SWAN to develop and support the SWAN Libraries App have unexpectedly disabled the app as of November 28, 2023. SWAN is working to get a new app up and running in 2024, but in the meantime, you can access the library catalog on your phone or other electronic device at lsfbrookfieldlibrary.org. Using the My Account feature, you can still access your account to checkout e-resources, and you can access your Library Card barcode and number for self-checks.
