Libraries411.com...It's Free

Libraries411 is the synergistic, "mash-up" and is the result of employing existing, proven technologies in combination with a number of technology innovations.

For a public library, Libraries411:

1. provides a free, 24x7, on-demand, mapping and locator service that can:
   1. be “custom” linked to its website(s), and
   2. automatically returns a user to the Library’s website.
   
   
2. delivers a unique, self-management functionality that enables a Library to:
1. achieve “pin-point” Library map location(s) accuracy;
2. provide its customers (and potential customers) with:
   1. “closest” Branch searches (by name or ZIP/postal code),
   2. custom information in Library location pop-up screens.

3. automatically and immediately updates any of a Library's displayed information (be it correcting an incorrect map location or, updating information for a Library’s “pop-up” info screen), on both the generic
   Libraries411 maps (www.libraries411.com), as well as the Library’s custom “411” map links accessed via the Library’s web site(s).

4. does not impose any direct or indirect "advertising" on a Library website’s custom Libraries411 map links.
   

Dedicated to providing innovative and cost-effective management and customer solutions for public libraries, Libraries411 is a “value-added” service of Counting Opinions (SQUIRE) Ltd.

Libraries411's combined functionality is neither available or possible, with any other “value-added”, web-based, mapping system.

For your Library system's secure self-management access code, contact Ian Reid (ireid@countingopinions.com). Please place your name, job title, and work phone number in the body of your email along with a brief comment confirming that you are authorized to receive your Libraries411 access code.
