Glasgow, Scotland and Madison, WI -- September 3015, 2020 – Solus UK, LTD is pleased to announce it has acquired the Boopsie mobile app and customer base from Demco, Inc. All Boopsie customers will be migrated to the latest Solus Library App at no additional cost to their existing subscription.
Matt Mulder, Executive Director of Product at Demco said, "Especially in the current environment, we understand libraries' digital services are more important to the communities they serve than ever before. We're excited to partner with Solus throughout this transition to ensure our Boopsie customers are able to continue delivering an optimal mobile experience to their patrons."
