About:
Be the first to know about two brand new tools from Springshare: LibSites and Patron Portal! Two tools that work together to deliver a customized library website experience for patrons.
LibSites, coming soon, is Springshare’s simplified website management tool for libraries. It focuses on making it easy to build and publish a library website or webpage using a super simple drag & drop interface. Plus, with LibSites you can personalize the online website experience and deliver customized landing pages depending on the patron type. With built-in blogging functionality, LibSites is your all-in-one website builder delivering a personalized patron experience.
Patron Portal works seamlessly with LibSites to deliver a streamlined library experience. Patrons can login and see all relevant data from the library catalog, including their checkouts, holds, and fines. Plus, it integrates with other Springshare tools, such as LibCal space and event registrations, so patrons can review all their reservations, and make modifications, from one interface.
