If you have a web-capable mobile phone (smartphone), just bookmark this site on your phone's Web browser, and you can access a streamlined version of the site from anywhere! See your Bookshelf, your Wish and Reminder Lists, and search the site by ISBN, title or author.
Without a bookmark, you can still access PBS Mobile easily, using the "Mobile Site" link at the very top of the Homepage if you log in from your phone's browser.
Why use PBS Mobile?
Check the Club Wish LIst when you are at a book sale. See if the ISBN on that book for 50 cents is wished for in the club!
Check the Posted (available) books when you see a book you are considering buying
Mark your incoming books received easily
Mark your mailed books as "mailed" on the go!
How to Use PBS Mobile:
Use the Web browser on your phone to access the site http://www.paperbackswap.com/mobile/index.php
Bookmark that page
Now whenever you go to that page, you will have access to the PBS database and your account.
You can also go to the regular PaperBackSwap site and use the "Mobile" link that will appear at the top of the page when you log in.
To see if a book you are looking at is Wish Listed in the club:
Go to the PBS Mobile site, choose "Wish List books" from the dropdown menu at the top of the page
Enter the ISBN below that and click Search.
You will see a listing of the book if it is Wish Listed, and how many wishers there are.
To see if a book you are looking at is available in the club:
Go to the PBS Mobile site, choose "Posted books" from the dropdown menu at the top of the page
Enter the ISBN (or title or author) below that and click Search.
You will see a listing of the book if it is available
To mark a book mailed - click the "Mark Mailed" button
To mark an incoming book received - click the "Mark a book received" button
Note: you can't document problem books using PBS Mobile - that needs to be done from a computer. Only "good condition" books can be marked received from the phone.
