Library Experience 4.0 Always connected

Libraries provide relevant media literacy in our digitised and interconnected society. It's high time to elevate the user experience to the next level within the library. An app is just key.

Everywhere and anytime, quickly and discreetly

Mobile keeps your community connected with you around the clock. You couldn't meet current demands for intuitive design, advanced operation, and communication any better.

And with Hublet tablets, which your users can borrow themselves in the library, you significantly contribute to digital inclusion.
