Check out BK Library card discounts on your smartphone

If you want to use your BK Library card for more than just looking legit, you can use it to save money on things you need! A partnership  gives cardholders discounts at stores and restaurants including Ozzie’s Coffe, PSBrooklyn, Awedacity and more. But you don’t have to go hunting for these deals any more — get the iPhone/Android app Vidappe and it will send you push notifications when you’re near a business that offers a discount.

The app also works for many other types of cards, such as student/teacher IDs (15 percent off at Madewell, 20 percent at Banana Republic) and AAA. Haven’t gotten around to getting a Brooklyn Library card yet? What the heck, yo? You can do it online.
