Your household's library, finally in order.
Scan your shelves, keep one shared catalogue, and lend books to friends with a simple link — no account needed to borrow.
Scan your shelves
Point your phone at a barcode and the book fills itself in — cover, author and all, with unusually good support for Norwegian titles.
One catalogue, whole household
Everyone in the household shares the same library — paperbacks, ebooks and Kindle Unlimited reads, each with its own owner and shelf.
Lend without losing
Give friends a personal link showing what's available and what they've borrowed. No app, no account, no awkward reminders — the link remembers for you.
Your data stays yours
Full CSV export any time and automatic weekly backups. Bookgard is never the only copy of your library.
Help keep Bookgard running
Bookgard is free, and built by one person in their spare time. The servers, the domain and the backups are not free — if the app earns its place on your shelf, you can chip in for them.
