Room Reserve
Are your meeting spaces managed by a single staff person? Do you allow self-service options for staff and patrons? Or, do you have an approval process for room requests that incorporates elements of both approaches? No matter what your approach, Room Reserve is flexible enough to adapt to your library and the way you manage your rooms. Room Reserve is a user-friendly, cost-effective room scheduling software designed to manage meeting and study rooms as well as the equipment in your library.
All features have been developed with the input of librarians in order to help streamline workflow and improve processes related to room management, staff and patron requests, equipment management, and more. The Web-based software makes information easily accessible, eliminates double bookings, and provides self-service options for patrons. Other features include automatic email confirmations and reminders, the ability to handle recurring reservations, and a generation of detailed reports and statistics. With the release of version 5.0, Room Reserve also provides full functioning equipment management. Room Reserve may be used alone or in conjunction with the Events software to further streamline workflow.
Library users can easily view and choose room availabilities. Room reservations can be staff mediated or unmediated. (From the Schaumburg Township Public Library, IL)
