Any item, its own fields
Books, DVDs, tools, tech kits, seed packets — each gets a record type with exactly the fields it needs, not a book-shaped compromise.
For public & community libraries
Catalog what your community actually borrows
Public libraries lend more than books now — tools, tech, instruments, seeds. Librygo's custom fields keep up with all of it, fines work however your library decides they should, and the portal is the front door your community sees.
A portal that feels like your library, not ours
Your logo, your footer, your brand color — members search and browse without ever seeing a generic system. Turn on self-service holds and renewals so members can manage their own loans, day or night.

Collections for programming

Roles for a mixed team
Full-time staff, volunteers, and pages can each get access scoped to exactly what their shift requires.
