Allen County Library Website made using Vega Promote Web
 
Allen County Public Library (ACPL) in Indiana is the first library to launch a website made with Innovative’s new website builder, Vega Promote Web.

ACPL was seeking a solution that would support their vision for a seamless user experience and greater discovery for their community, and Vega Promote Web quickly became the product of choice. Allen County Public Library used the opportunity to redesign two sites for their community: the main library website and the ACPL Genealogy Center website.

Kids Catalog for Vega Discover now in beta testing!
 
As announced at the 2023 Innovative Users Group conference, Innovative has been working on custom catalog options for Vega Discover, including a Kids Catalog that is eye-catching and easy for kids to navigate, and Themed Catalogs which allow the library to promote custom collections. 

These custom catalogs include unique URLs for each catalog, additional home page customizations for background themes and icons, and the ability to restrict or scope the resources displayed on the catalog by collection or location. These catalogs are ideal for places like kiosks, where the themed catalog can be configured to cater to a collection specific to that branch or area of the library.

What People Are Saying
 

“Now that we’re using Vega Program, I can say that it is easy to add events, and I like that we can add statistics after the events have finished. I also like that we can feature some of the events at the top of the public calendar.”

Sarah Marsack, Systems Librarian at Roseville Public Library
