Powering modern library service: Tipton County Public Library is live on Polaris and Vega Discover

 

Innovative, from Clarivate, is delighted to announce that as part of our commitment to delivering best-in-class library technology and patron experience, our company has partnered with the Tipton County Public Library, Indiana (TCPL) to implement a comprehensive upgrade across their services. This rollout encompasses Polaris, the powerful Vega Discover catalog and Vega Interact SMS. Together, these systems will streamline library operations, modernize the patron interface, and create stronger, more meaningful connections with the community. 

 

TCPL was originally a Carnegie library that opened in 1902 and was replaced by a new building in 1981, which incorporated parts of the older structure. Today, it is a modern facility that includes a 3D printer, a library of things, and small group rooms for private meetings or study. The library is also home to a small collection of fine art by prominent Indiana artists.  

One of the standout components of this upgrade is the Vega Discover solution. Patrons can look forward to a more intuitive and efficient library experience, including a faster, easier-to-use catalog, improved account management tools, clearer notifications for holds and due dates, and streamlined options to renew, request, and track materials. Vega Discover offers an intuitive, modern patron-facing interface that aggregates all formats and editions into unified title displays, delivers a responsive and accessible experience across devices, and exposes richer discovery through connections between authors, topics and formats. For your staff and patrons, this means faster, more relevant search results, easier browsing and checkout workflows, and built-in flexibility to customize catalog experiences (for example via dedicated Kids Catalogs or curated staff lists).  

You can explore their new catalog here.
