Innovative partners with LibraryIQ to offer comprehensive analytics to libraries
We announced today a partnership with LibraryIQ, expanding the analytics offering available through the Vega Library Experience (LX) platform.
LibraryIQ is an analytics and reporting solution that uses real-time data to offer actionable insights to libraries in categories spanning collection management, service development, patron engagement, and strategic planning.
LibraryIQ works seamlessly with Sierra and Polaris. It provides the holistic insights libraries need to improve their data-driven decisions.
