SBN UBO is an Android app developed by DM Cultura S.r.l. that helps you search for books and documents in libraries within the Bologna Library System. You can easily search for library holdings, check the availability of books and other materials, and request or place booking for the loan of an item. The app also allows you to save items in your personal bibliography and suggest an item for purchase to the librarian. With SBN UBO, you can easily view a map of libraries closest to you with a copy of the document you are looking for.

This latest version of SBN UBO comes with new search filters and capabilities using facets and classifications such as tags, authors, year of publication, and material types. You can now also choose multiple preferred libraries, and the listings highlight documents available in those libraries. Document details show availability on the same page, and you can even share events, news, and titles on major social networks. The app also allows you to synchronize your bibliography with the library portal and offers recommended reading based on your search history. Lastly, the news is updated in real-time, ensuring that you are always up-to-date with the latest information.
