I appreciate Follett Destiny Library Manager for its user-friendly interface, which makes managing books, resources, and media easy. I value its powerful cataloging and search features, customizable settings, and efficient circulation and inventory management. The system integrates well with other school platforms and offers detailed reports and analytics to help school librarians make informed decisions. Additionally, its support for eBooks and digital resources, along with the flexibility of cloud-based access, allows me to easily manage the library remotely and provide students with easy access to a wide range of materials.

I’ve found that some librarians using Follett Destiny Library Manager feel it’s quite expensive, especially for smaller schools or libraries with tighter budgets. While the system is generally user-friendly, there can be a learning curve with advanced features, and some wish for more customization options for the interface and reports. Oveeall it is worth it to me with their good customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like several of the features of Library Manager. It is relatively easy to add new records using several approaches - title, author, ISBN etc. Circulation is easy as well. In elementary, I use the checkout by homeroom feature which has the students' ID pictures. We are web hosted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few downsides: the integration between Back Office and Destiny Discover still has a few glitches. A big one is that for Collections that are populated from a B.O. Resource List do not update when the RL is updated. Another issue is that books deleted are not removed from a Collection, causing confusion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Continuous service. Easy check in and out system. Help desk availability is convenient. Destiny Discover has an appealing interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reports can be hard to find when a specific data point is needed. Many times I rely on calling a colleague because I can't find a specific report and "help" is not usually helpful. Allow Discover interface to check out books. RESOURCE LISTS SHOULD TRANSFER TO DISCOVER!

Marc record cleanup with mitinet would be a better package. And offer some free trainings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very user friendly. What I don't know I can usually figure out quickly in my own. It's a lot of common sense Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not synced correctly maybe on my end. I have spent the past 2 days uploading my students current pics to it. I wish I could make the info upload on my own in bulk. I know that's an option but I couldn't figure out how to do it so I have had to do it one by one Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Library Manager is generally user-friendly and easy to use. It has been invaluable for my school library and our district and makes it easy to track books and patrons. I love how easy it is to see what's overdue for each of my classes and being able to do ILL between all our school sites is amazing for access to materials we don't have at our specific site.

I wish it were a little more intuitive to create customized reports and that the search feature functioned more closely to Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the most helpful features of Destiny is the limitless reports that can be printed or created for long term data purposes, or just everyday reporting needs. One of the upsides of using Destiny is the user friendly catalog format for students and staff that can even be simplified for the youngest of patrons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly cannot think of anything I don't like about Follett Destiny Library Manager. I like having the ability to suggest an idea for improvement through the "enhancement request" feature in Follett Community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything is in one place. It keeps me organized. Reports in Destiny have come a long way in the 12 plus years I have been using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes reports can be too restrive for high school use. High schools don't use homerooms. We need to run reports by periods and teacher to send notices to students and teachers. I often need to let teachers know which students in their classes still need to return a book each period and we still don't have a report for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to set up a self-checkout. I am the librarian for all 3 schools in my district (K-8, 1200 students) and I cannot physically be at all places at once. Self-checkout enables students and staff to get what they need when I am not at that campus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enrichment reports often still include books that were weeded, regardless if the collection has been reuploaded to Titlewave. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that everything is in one place. I can do administrative work as well as assist my students within Destiny. It is a tool that I use during my entire work day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When selecting date for various reports I wish that I could type in a date instead of having to go through the calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Follett Destiny Suite is super easy to manage. If you ever have questions there is always an online video to help you. My students find it easy to look for books in our catalog as well put books om hold. Personally I think it makes the library alot easier to run compared to the program used at my last school. It's easy to look up books, complete records, check what other schools have in their catalog, create records and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like more options to be able to delete holds when students have had them for too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
