The Only Calendar Tool You'll Need

  4. Librarian Appointment Scheduler

New Features Will Have You Doing a Double Take

  • Card View - Check out the “card” layout to show your upcoming events in style. In this new view, each event is represented as a card – the event’s date, time, and location are displayed at the top of each card for easy scanning, and each event’s title and description are displayed inside the card.
  • Internal Tags - Help manage your events with internal tags for classification and data-gathering purposes. 
  • Privacy-Related Updates - Enable a public cookie notice, make use of privacy scrubbing, and more.

We'll Cover:

  • Overview Tour - a brief tour of LibCal including all four components.
  • Mobile-First/Responsive Design - Learn how LibCal displays beautifully on any device.
  • Integration With Patron Authentication Systems - LibCal integrates with various authentication schemes for easy patron login before bookings or event registrations.  [Shibboleth, LDAP, SIP2, LDAP, self hosted supported]
  • In-Depth Statistics - Produce detailed reports showing how library rooms, equipment, and spaces are being used. 
  • Combine With Other Springshare Tools For Improved Workflows​ - If you're using other Springy Tools, enjoy seamless connections between LibCal and LibGuides, LibStaffer, and LibChat.
