Over 1,000 libraries, from small academic libraries to large, multi-branch public systems, use Mosio to communicate more efficiently with their patrons in an increasingly digital world. Librarians love us for the reliability, support and work efficiencies we provide.
There's a reason leading companies and organizations don't have their customer service reps replying to all inquiries through free instant messaging programs (Google Talk, AIM, etc): it's an inefficient and inflexible way to manage customer communications, especially across channels. Mosio provides libraries with enterprise-grade customer support technology for all channels (Chat, Email and Text Messaging) using an easy-to-use, "accessible anywhere" dashboard.
Being available to your patrons in so many places doesn't need to be more work. Mosio saves you time and money by enabling librarians to do more in less time, providing patrons with get quicker responses to their questions across multiple channels. Patrons can send in questions through their mobile phones, tablets or PCs the way they're accustomed to communicating, librarians respond using time-saving tools like auto-responders and answer templates to their advantage.
You spend plenty of time and money building and maintaining your digital presence, but patrons have plenty of distractions and the "back" button is a simple click away. We make it easy to put your support tabs and widgets on all of your electronic collections. Mosio integrates seamlessly with the most popular CMS systems (Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla!) as well as the library industry's leading online databases and discovery tools.
With our popular Text a Librarian solution built into the core of our patron support platform, your library is accessible to patrons whether they are online or out in the world. Smart phone, simple phone, tablet or PC, Mosio makes libraries more accessible to patrons.
One librarian at a single reference desk or multiple librarians across several branches, Mosio for Libraries provides an efficient way to collaborate, answer questions and communicate. Librarians can log-in from any internet-connected computer, making virtual reference management as flexible as you are.
From initial setup to launching the service to your patrons, Mosio for Libraries makes it easy for you to take advantage of the growing use of digital technologies by patrons, whether it be chat, text messaging or good old email (it still works, very well, thank you).
Mosio for Libraries was developed with end-user security and patron privacy in mind, utilizing the same security protocols as online banking. Patron phone numbers are kept private and your data is backed-up daily. Our technology is mobile carrier-certified, ensuring message delivery and security.
Quickly and easily generate numerical and graphical data reports for statistical analysis. The system also builds an online knowledge database of past questions and answers specific to your library.
Mobile carriers actively blacklist non-compliant technologies, resulting in service delays, interruptions and/or sanctions. Workaround systems have privacy and security issues and little or no technical support. Solutions that use email to send text messages have not been carrier-approved.
We are always making Mosio for Libraries better by listening to customer feedback and suggestions. Product and feature updates are added automatically on our end, with nothing for you to download or install. Seamless integration of new features means no service disruption during their release.
Simply put, we play well with others. The Mosio development team prides itself in being knowledgeable about all of the latest search, web 2.0 technologies and popular social networks.
