From people who trusted and invested with us
“Transitioning to Vega Discover has helped our library highlight items that were previously difficult for our patrons to navigate. Our Library of Things and Learning Kits are now easy to find in our catalog and have increased our patron’s independence in putting those items on hold.”
” Vega Discover has been especially valuable because of its visual appeal and engagement capabilities.”
” We knew it was time to get Vega Discover as the staff and patrons had been admiring the neighboring libraries’ catalogs. As with any major project, there’s always the concern that implementation will be an arduous experience filled with missteps and hiccups, but this was not the case working with the Vega team. They were helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive, and they helped us pull off a seamless transition. The patrons are thrilled with the new catalog and its inviting and intuitive interface. We’re also very excited about additional features to add down the road!”
