Fargo, N.D. (June 16, 2020) - ScheduleAnywhere, online library staff scheduling software developed by Atlas Business Solutions, Inc., will be featured in the American Library Association's (ALA) virtual conference & exposition June 24 - 26, 2020. The conference, originally scheduled for June 25 - 30 in Chicago, was moved online in response to COVID-19.
"Our software has always been a good fit for libraries and library systems, but we've never exhibited at ALA," said Jon Forknell, vice president and general manager for Atlas Business Solutions, Inc. "After receiving the Modern Library Award this year, we wanted to talk firsthand to more people in the library industry and discuss how ScheduleAnywhere meets their specific scheduling requirements. We're excited to participate in ALA Virtual, and we look forward to exhibiting in person at the ALA Conference next year."
The Modern Library Awards were created to recognize the top products and services for the library industry. Winners are selected based on numeric scores provided by library employees with direct experience using the products or services. Products are scored on factors such as quality, functionality, value, and customer service.
ScheduleAnywhere ensures proper service point coverage and provides library staff with real-time schedule access from any computer or mobile device. Managers can review staffing needs and quickly email or text all employees, individuals, or a select group of qualified and available staff members or volunteers about open shifts, additional hours, or anything else they need to know.
Schedules can be shared with multiple departments, locations, and branches, so managers throughout the library system always know which employees are scheduled and where they are assigned to work. This prevents scheduling conflicts such as overlapping shifts, inadequate service point coverage and double-booking employees.
Coverage can be monitored by skill, position, shift, service point or location. Managers can assign tasks to each shift and create an unlimited number of schedules for each location or department. Additionally, ScheduleAnywhere tracks skills, training, and certifications to ensure the appropriate number of qualified employees are always scheduled.
