We are changing because Aspen Discovery offers a more user-friendly, modern browsing experience, making finding the materials you want even more accessible. It also provides exciting personalization features and search tools designed to help you discover all CLEVNET libraries offer with ease.

CLEVNET App

The CLEVNET app will be down for the foreseeable future.  The owner of the mobile application and the vendor that controls access to the app are different. Unfortunately, the vendor unexpectedly disabled the app, rendering it inoperable.  An entirely new, next-generation mobile app for CLEVNET is in the works, but it is not yet available.
