YOU'RE BEING

UPGRADED!

Alexandria v5 & v6 will no longer be supported after August 31st, 2022

We created Alexandria Library Management Software over 30 years ago, and we have never stopped our commitment to improving Alexandria! During this time, we have had to make some strategic decisions about obsolescence to keep up with technologies, advancements and integrations.

We realize this might come as a shock, but as of August 31st, 2022 Alexandria v5 & v6 will no longer be supported. To ensure we’re providing the best experience, we are asking all customers to switch to Alexandria 7.

Alexandria 7 has been out for eight years and those using it have experienced increased customer satisfaction through our powerful partnerships, time-saving features, and increased accessibility and circulation. As such, Alexandria 7 just won the 2022 Modern Library Association's Platinum award for innovation and customer satisfaction.

Switching to Alexandria 7 will allow you to unlock your library's full potential, with features like SIS integration with Clever and GG4L, our integrated Textbook and Asset Management module, partnerships with Mitinet, Gumdrop Books, and add-ons like Navigator and Engagement+, to name just a few. Our included cloud-hosting service ensures your catalog is easily accessible and your items are circulated more frequently.

Alexandria v6/v5 Self-Hosted Customers

We’ve made the conversion to Alexandria 7 easy but will need to work with you directly to initiate the process. We will be contacting you shortly to start the Switch to Alexandria 7 Cloud Hosted Software. Be sure to plan to Switch before August 31, 2022 to avoid additional conversion fees, which we are waiving for this promotional period. Please let me know if there is a good time to schedule a call to ensure we get this started for you.

We understand that you may have concerns and we're here to address them all. Feel free to call 800-347-6439 to discuss how you can take advantage of the latest features and accessibility that comes with Alexandria 7! We can start moving you now to ensure you're getting the best experience, no reason to wait until Summer.

Why Switch to 7?

The latest release of Alexandria 7 is more than just library software - it is transforming library management. Alexandria 7 was designed to empower librarians by removing obstacles that impede their primary objective: inspiring students and facilitating learning.

The latest iteration of Alexandria 7 has a flexible new interface that strips away unnecessary steps to create worry-free and intuitive processes. It includes many new features that allow you to manage, share, and interact with your catalog in innovative new ways, such as Library Usage Module (to track usage of your library beyond circulation statistics), and a highly-requested, integrated Textbook and Asset Management Module to name a few.

Access Your Library from the Cloud!

Our Cloud Hosted service, you allow Alexandria to manage all of your data. Not only does this reduce the amount of expensive hardware and software your library will need to maintain servers, but it frees your time to focus on what you do best.
