World class vision

With minor differences, all library management systems will do what libraries know they want to do

Spydus is a library solution, more than a software product People (Our customers and our staff) Processes (How we do business) Technology (Best integrated library management system)

Spydus will do the things that libraries don’t yet know they want to do

Spydus is setting the standard for library automation systems, allowing libraries to take service to a new level, enabling them to take a pivotal role

within the community they serve.
