Unique Library is excited to announce that CLEVNET, a northern Ohio consortium of 47 library systems, has implemented MessageBee for email notifications. Patrons across CLEVNET will now receive circulation notices and marketing emails powered by the advanced MessageBee platform.

CLEVNET is the latest consortium to join Unique, serving 47 systems and nearly 1 million users across northern Ohio. Founded in 1982, the consortium continues to expand its services, and the addition of MessageBee represents a significant step in enhancing its communication with patrons.

MessageBee is a highly customizable messaging tool, designed to streamline communication efforts for libraries. Its user-friendly interface and robust features make it an ideal choice for delivering clear, effective notifications, ensuring CLEVNET's patrons stay informed.

Key features of MessageBee include:

  • SaaS Email service: Our email notifications require no library-based equipment. We handle the back end, so libraries can focus on their patrons.
  • Next-level branding: Each library has a customized email template with their own links and logos, bringing the benefits of consortium membership and big-library tools to each individual branch
  • Superior Deliverability: Unique is on the cutting edge of email-based notifications. Our spam compliant notifications are an upgrade on traditional ILS generated emails in deliverability and clarity.

About MessageBee

MessageBee has three different ways to communicate with your patron base. SMS alerts get in front of more of your patrons with simple and understandable messaging. Email takes boring and confusing ILS generated email notifications and turns it into a patron engagement tool with a simple drag-and-drop design. Phone notifications cater to your patrons that prefer the personal touch of a recorded or voice-to-text phone messages.

Patrons across CLEVNET will now receive circulation notices and marketing emails powered by the advanced MessageBee platform.
