Just launched Optimum is a new product that increases awareness and access to catalog inventory, creates efficiencies for library staff and fosters a more engaged reader community.
A game-changer for book-hunting. New Boopsie BookLook Mobile™ leverages bar-code scanning technology that makes it easy to see if that new bestseller at the bookstore is available at the local library.
BookLook Mobile™ is the first to cross-reference ISBN data with multiple ILS systems and integrate with library account functionality. By simply scanning or entering the ISBN barcode data, cardholders can see if a book is owned by their library, find the branch where it is located and place it on hold or add themselves to the waiting list.
Scan, Check, Reserve – it’s that easy!
Reviews and Recommendations. Optimum offers access to licensed services such as publisher reviews, bibliographic information and crowd-sourced sites such as GoodReads.
BookCheck™ This previously announced feature saves time at the checkout line. Patrons can checkout a book, DVD or CD from anywhere in the library using their mobile phone.
One-click access to OverDrive eBook collections helps meet growing demand for digital titles.
Boopsie’s native mobile app technology will revolutionize the patron experience inside and outside the library in ways that will increase staff availability and ultimately lower capital costs.
Compatibility. Full Optimum functionality is available for Android, BlackBerry and iPhone. Patrons using other phones must manually enter barcode data in order to take advantage of BookLook Mobile™ and BookCheck™ features.
Optimum for Libraries is available to both new and existing Boopsie customers.
