If at any time you need help with Beanstack, please visit their Help Desk and type in your question. If you cannot find your answer there, our Youth and Adult Programming staff would be happy to assist you! Please call the Youth Services Desk at (630) 879-1393 x500 during Library hours.
Beanstack is easy to use and available both online and as a mobile app. Get started by visiting our Batavia Public Library Beanstack website at https://bataviapubliclibrary.beanstack.org/, create your account. You can also register through the app (find out how under “Get the App”).
NOTE: To register for Beanstack you must have:
Find the free app in your Apple App or Google Play store under the name “Beanstack Tracker” and select “Get” or “Install.”
Once downloaded, open the app, and follow the simple step-by-step prompts to create an account for yourself, your child, or your family. If you have already created your account through the website, you can skip this step and just sign in to your existing account with your registered username and password.
Registering on the website vs. through the app: Since the app does not use our direct website link, the first prompt in creating your account is selecting “Find Your School or Library” and entering “Batavia Libraries” in the search option. Otherwise, the process is the same as registering on the website. All fields are required.
The Library’s Beanstack subscription is sponsored in part by the Friends of the Batavia Library.
