<p>
In order to offer library system functionality on an mobile device (tablet or phone) venders may offer a '<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsive_web_design" class="urlextern" title="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsive_web_design" rel="nofollow">responsive design</a> ' approach. In essence this resizes the existing web based functionality to fit on a smaller (mobile or tablet screen). <a href="http://anleabharlannai.blogspot.com/2016/10/delivering-responsive-web-design-via.html" class="urlextern" title="http://anleabharlannai.blogspot.com/2016/10/delivering-responsive-web-design-via.html" rel="nofollow">Delivering Responsive Web Design via the Library OPAC</a> - a literature review.

Vendors may also offer an Apps. Apps have to be <em>downloaded</em> (from an 'app store' -eg Apple's app store, Google play) onto the mobile device and generally provide a different user experience -for example workflows and functions may be tailored to better exploit working on a mobile device.

<p>
Apps may be specific to the library or library functionality may be incorporated into a wider university app. For example, library system vendor Ex Libris (Clarivate) provides <a href="https://www.exlibrisgroup.com/products/campusm-mobile-campus-app-platform/" class="urlextern" title="https://www.exlibrisgroup.com/products/campusm-mobile-campus-app-platform/" rel="nofollow">campusM</a> - an app that is designed for multiple functions.
