The collaboration between two visionary companies, Systematic and Nexbib, is setting new benchmarks in the digitalisation of public libraries. The innovative Cicero library management system, provided by Systematic, will soon be implemented at the Public Libraries Bücherhallen Hamburg. This includes the launch of two digital solutions by Nexbib: a smartphone library app and a web-based content platform. Both solutions are seamlessly integrated into Cicero, Denmark’s national public library management system, offering users a modern and enhanced library experience.  

The integration of the Nex.App and the Discovery Platform from Nexbib into the library system developed by Danish software provider Systematic enables smooth interaction and unlocks new potential. Both user services and internal workflows for the library team are modernised, making them more efficient.  

With the Nex.App and the Discovery Platform, users are offered with a wide range of possibilities to discover, manage reading lists, make reservations, get access to e-media and much more. Both applications can be easily customised and are available in the library’s corporate design. Access to content is conveniently available via smartphones (iOS/Android), tablets, laptops, and PCs.  

Helle Lauridsen, Senior Product Manager at Systematic, comments: “The Hamburg Public Libraries sought a future-proof library system to continuously evolve its services and operations. We are excited to have found a partner in Nexbib, whose adaptable digital portfolio complements our library system in a timely and relevant way.”  

Markus Rösch, Managing Director of Nexbib Germany, adds: “Our partnership with Systematic is a prime example of our strategy to collaborate with visionary partners, enabling us to equip libraries with nex.generation solutions.”
