Unique Library is proud to announce the addition of MessageBee for Arcadia Public Library this week. Patrons will receive notifications from the library via email and SMS notifications, creating a new channel for their patrons. Unique has served Arcadia Public Library for nearly 20 years already, thanks to a longstanding material recovery partnership between the two organizations.
Arcadia Public Library has a rich history, having been founded in 1913 as a branch of the LA County Library, with its current location opening in 1961. The area has been the backdrop to countless movies and TV shows throughout the years, too.
MessageBee is a powerful and customizable messaging tool that offers numerous features, making it an essential asset for libraries looking to enhance their communication strategies with patron-focused communication.
Key features of MessageBee include:
- Simple design interface: The drag-and-drop email editor makes it easy for anyone to become a marketing expert.
- Multiple language support: Send emails and text messages in either Spanish or English, whatever the patron indicates on their ILS profile.
- Superior Deliverability: Unique is on the cutting edge of patron notifications, and our notifications offer an upgrade on deliverability vs ILS-generated notifications.
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.
