Alexandria is the best for alternative libraries.

From churches to private collections to correctional facilities, Alexandria can be configured to fit your unique needs.

Church

Build the faith of your users

Alexandria’s easy to use cataloging system allows theological libraries to find MARC records from different sources around the world. Alexandria’s highly customizable interfaces allow you to create an experience that your whole congregation will love. Not only that, but you can promote and display events and activities through bulletin boards that will engage and help build your congregation and your local community!

Private

Manage your assets

Alexandria is flexible enough to be used in instances where circulation and search is not the main goal. Alexandria’s cost-effective license structure allows users from all walks of life to benefit from its organizational and inventory features. With Alexandria, you can actively keep track of excess inventory. You can even utilize Alexandria to catalog equipment! Alexandria will ensure that you aren’t overspending on assets and more importantly help keep organized.

Prison

Promote rehabilitation

We understand that correctional facilities require deep levels of security. We set out to ensure that Alexandria works for different institutions on multiple levels. Often times in correctional facilities, having access to the internet is not an option. With this in mind, Alexandria gives you the ability to run your catalog without being connected to your network. Alexandria provides an easy to use solution for ensuring your users can check out materials with ease.

SEARCH INTERFACES

Having your collection readily available for your patrons is most important. After all, this is one of the main reasons library automation software is available. Alexandria’s Search interface offers fun, interactive searching through icons, study programs or by simply putting a search term in and using our powerful Simple Search tool. Come and see how your library can open your collection up to your users.

SIMPLE CATALOGING

We understand that cataloging can be a long, arduous task. Alexandria makes the challenge of cataloging simple with our integrated SmartMARC® technology, allowing you to obtain MARC records from multiple sources including the Library of Congress.

QUICK CIRCULATION

Alexandria offers a robust, seamless circulation interface that allows you to handle all of your transactions without skipping a beat. Whether you’re checking books in, placing holds, or weeding, you can do this quickly and efficiently in our user-friendly Circulation interface.

CUSTOM REPORTS

Our reporting module is all about set it and forget it. Rather than having to re-create reports, you can save time and do what is most important for your library. Alexandria’s reporting module allows you to run the reports you want when you need them. Whether scheduling, or quickly trying to find out how many overdue books you have, Alexandria has you covered.

WHAT DO OTHERS SAY ABOUT OUR LIBRARY SOFTWARE?

We are a small parochial school who chose Alexandria Library Software to bring us up-to-date and we LOVE it!! The transition took time at first, but has paid off immensely. We came from the dark ages with Alexandria!

I have experience with 4 different Library Automation platforms. Alexandria is my favorite in terms of ease of use, ability to tailor to specific library needs, and the ability to tailor reports. I have had wonderful experience with their support crew whenever I needed any type of help. Just a great company and product.

Not only is the software easy to use, but their customer service is exemplary (in a world where this no longer exists) you can depend on them to not only answer the phone but to answer your problem or question.

I've been using Alexandria Library Automation Software for almost 15 years. The software is excellent and provides for many different reports that help me oversee our middle and high school libraries. The software has many functions and options to personalize your libraries. The support staff is excellent and has always helped me until my problem was resolved. I totally recommend Alexandria!

Alexandria is the best. If you ever have any trouble you just call them and they walk you through step by step.

As a new librarian using Alexandria for the first time, I really appreciate the customer service. They answer their calls promptly and have always been able to help me with my various questions. They never make me feel like I should know or are wasting their time. I like all parts of the system and my teachers appreciate what I can do for them by accessing the various functions.
