[Web4lib] Boopsie Anyone?

[Greg Carpenter]

Antoinette,

I may be biased, because I am the CEO of Boopsie, Inc.   However, we have
mobilized around 100 libraries (public and academic) this past year with
custom apps.

Here is a link to some recent customers:

And here is a link to a press release showing that mobilizing the catalog
isn't the only thing you need to do in an application (we work with all
major ILS systems), but the key is also to mobilize the other content of the
library - which is where most of the use is seen.

We've seen about 10 million queries come thru the mobile apps - so they are
clearly being used quite a bit.

We're happy to answer any questions.  Email libraries at boopsie.com

Cheers,

Greg
