Easy to navigate. Clean interface **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jenny W. | ., Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023 **What do you like best about Bibliotheca?** It has a very clean and crisp interface. Easy to navigate around. **What do you dislike about Bibliotheca?** Price points aren't available unless you send for marketing information. **What problems is Bibliotheca solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are going to transition to self-checkout systems and implement that as an option in our library. ### 2. Great product- awesome customer service! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Libraries | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2023 **What do you like best about Bibliotheca?** We use Bibliotheca for our RFID system in the library setting- we have the security gates self-check machines, and RFID pads. We love how easy they integrate into our system and the customer service is outstanding. **What do you dislike about Bibliotheca?** We have not experienced downsides- this has been a fantastic company to work with for us. **What problems is Bibliotheca solving and how is that benefiting you?** Workflows and security of library items. We have had a reduction of missed checkouts with the security gates and RFID. ### 3. Very good library item monitoring tool. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2018 **What do you like best about Bibliotheca?** Very good at instantly identifying items that our gate sensors alarm. This eliminates the problem of finding unchecked-out items in a patron's stack of books. **What do you dislike about Bibliotheca?** Occasionally there are false alarms, and items do not show up on the screen. This does not happen often however. And we have never had unchecked-out RFID'd items NOT set off an alarm. **Recommendations to others considering Bibliotheca:** If you use RFID tags on your items, this is a great product for instantly identifying those items when they set off gate alarms. **What problems is Bibliotheca solving and how is that benefiting you?** When alarms went off alerting us to unchecked-out items leaving the library (our gates detect RFIDs that have not been de-sensitized during checkout), we used to have no way to identify the item in question. We had to check each item a patron was leaving with. Bibliotheca pops up a box on our terminals that identifies the specific items. This saves a lot of time and aggravation at the circulation desk. ## Bibliotheca Discussions - [What is Bibliotheca used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-bibliotheca-used-for) - [View Bibliotheca pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/bibliotheca/reviews?open_modal_url=%2Fproducts%2Fbibliotheca%2Fwishlists%3Fhost_path%3D%252Fproducts%252Fbibliotheca%252Freviews%26source%3Dsticky_header_pin§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-08-08+13%3A23%3A11+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=62a490d3-513c-4ed1-8dab-8fe563e0b794&secure%5Btoken%5D=8a0f4469699e759d0913150d06b152f70ee020a01e2ae88f7ca62a6113465aa7&format=llm_user) ## Bibliotheca Features **Additional Functionality** - Fee Collection - Self Check-In/Check-Out - Search/Filter - User Management - Alerts/Notifications - Catalog Management - Reserve Shelf Management - Third-Party Integrations - Acquisition Management - Circulation Management - Generative AI - Customizable Reports - Resource Management - Data Storage Management - AI Copilot - Public Libraries - School Libraries - Customizable Branding - Digital Asset Management - Database Support - Content Library - OPAC - Serials Management - Church Libraries - Self Service Portal - Records Management - Online Catalog - Barcoding/RFID - Data Import/Export - Periodicals Management - Equipment Tracking - Private Libraries - Barcode/Ticket Scanning - Access Controls/Permissions - Patron Management - Barcode Recognition - Historical Reporting - Full Text Search - Activity Dashboard - Reporting & Statistics - Inventory Management - Reservations Management - Law Libraries ## Top Bibliotheca Alternatives - [Follett Destiny Library Manager](https://www.g2.com/products/follett-software-follett-destiny-library-manager/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (430 reviews) - [Atriuum ILS](https://www.g2.com/products/atriuum-ils/reviews) - 4.9/5.0 (109 reviews) - [Apollo ILS/LSP](https://www.g2.com/products/apollo-ils-lsp/reviews) - 4.8/5.0 (46 reviews)
