Boopsie for Libraries offers powerful catalog search, library branch locator, reading lists, access to blogs and tweets, calendar of events, ask-a-librarian services, and other types of services for mobile devices.

With Boopsie for Libraries, staff at subscribing libraries simply fill out a few spreadsheets. In just a few days, Boopsie will provide the library with a completely mobile application.
