Library-Specific Content Types
Our library of custom content types provides centralized, easy management of the kinds of content most libraries need to make available such as databases, community resources, policies, and more.
These are generally available as pages where users can browse or set filters to find what they need and as blocks for presenting items from particular categories on your pages.
Recommended Reads & Book Rivers
Both of these features stem from the same central content type. Adding books is as easy as entering the ISBN (which prefills the title, author, summary, and jacket image) and tagging it with your custom categories.
Links back to your catalog are created automatically. Highlight your collection with Book Rivers on your home page, and use Recommended Reads to create custom books lists.
Custom Design
A library’s website should serve as a “digital branch,” offering 24/7 information, services, and resources. Our design team uses your brand to reinforce the connection between the digital and physical library and provide a modern web experience for your users.
This may include adapting your color palette for web use, creating custom backgrounds, and using logo elements in creative ways.
