How we build it
Four principles behind the product
- 01
Designed around the desk
Screens follow the real order of library work: find the member, find the copy, issue, return.
- 02
One copy, one record
A copy cannot be issued twice at once, and every change to it is kept in its history.
- 03
Your data, kept separate
Each institution’s records are kept apart from every other institution’s.
- 04
Focused, not bloated
We build what school and college libraries use every day, and keep it simple.
