Superior search for all resources across devices
Libero’s superior single-search Discovery portal makes it easier than ever for library members to search, refine, locate and reserve items across your local library catalogue and eResource collections in one integrated search.
Give your library members a search experience consistent with how they use other online platforms like Google, Ebay and Facebook and combine this with highly visible search sorting and filtering parameters so your members can find exactly what they want, when they want it. This includes all the latest releases and newly introduced items available in your library catalogue.
Event Management for libraries
The modern library has adapted and evolved to being far more than the traditional repository of books and study spaces. Today, they are a centre for community engagement and a public space to experience and create meaningful interactions and lasting relationships.
With the Events Management for libraries module, Libero enables libraries in this community building role where staff can schedule, promote and manage free and ticketed events, making it easy for members to search, select, register and manage their bookings.
As an integrated Libero module, your library events will be promoted to all your members and managed to a professional standard. Schedule new and recurring events, manage event locations, assign event owners, manage maximum ticket numbers, and handle bookings for all your library events.
Room and Library Resource Booking
Room and Library Resource booking provides libraries with a flexible way to configure and manage bookings for rooms and resources (eg projectors, laptops) made available by the library.
The configuration interface gives libraries easy–to–understand room and resource availability information, and simple bookings management processes with the capability to archive resources while unavailable or in repair.
Community and library members can reserve and manage bookings through a calendar-style booking system, accessed from either the web or the Libero Library App.
Security and Compliance
The evolving nature of how libraries connect with their community both physically and digitally means that security and compliance is more important than ever.
From protecting member data, to managing collections and ensuring that libraries maintain trust and transparency means that the library LMS must ensure that the library meets those obligations day in, day out.
Libero protects member data by implementing recognised security standards, including:
- Meeting most WCAG 2.1 AA requirements;
- Supporting all major operating systems including Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android;
- Undertaking regular security audits, encryption and vulnerability assessments to ensure the protection of user data for enhanced security protocols; and
- Complying with relevant Australian digital accessibility and data protection laws and regulations.
Library App for Mobile
Enhance and extend member engagement and experience beyond the library to wherever they may be with the Libero Library App.
Members can access and connect digitally with your library 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
