We’re excited to announce a new offering: Ex Libris Web Design created just for librarians. Designed to be extremely low-tech, budget-friendly, and effortless for busy librarians. All we need is your accurate information, and we’ll take care of the rest.
To meet the varying needs of different libraries, we’re offering three flexible tiers of service. Whether you just need an online place for prospective patrons and donors to find you, you are a busy library with a need to post monthly event calendars, or you are actively trying to grow your library and need your web presence to be indexed on search engine servers, we have a plan for you.
Note: we are talking about a home page for your library - not a digital catalog or circulation software.
