Integrated Library Systems

An Integrated Library System (ILS) is a software platform that helps libraries manage their collections, including cataloging books and resources, tracking loans, managing memberships, and handling reservations. It consolidates these functions into a single system, enabling staff to efficiently organize, access, and update library data. For users, it simplifies the borrowing process through online catalogs and account management. Overall, an ILS streamlines library operations, improves user experience, and ensures accurate, up-to-date information about the library’s collections and services.
