Respected LIS Professionals, 

Now a day 63% Internet users using from mobile, so library services to reach at their end user is one of our tasks. In this manner, I developed an Android App for IIITDM Kancheepuram Central Library "Knowledge Plaza".

I Created an Android native app using MobiRoller and published Amazon app store - No Fee For Creating and Publishing. I know google pay store has $25 Fee so I choose Amazon Underground.
