Surprisingly awful! Catalog never works, map never shows me the library I'm closest to, events tab always comes back with an error - at least the mobile checkout works and that's the only reason I keep this installed.
It wouldn't be life without books and NYPL does a wonderful job of providing them both online and in person.
With the latest update, the checkouts page became invalid, there's nothing being shown, although I have had books borrowed, and as a result, cannot use the renew option as well. Please fix this with next update.
