Day‑to‑day feedback from librarians and staff using WhoFi in the field drives everything we build. These six enhancements grew directly out of that partnership, giving libraries—and any hybrid community space—smarter tools for managing room reservations, resources, and patron demand. Check out our library room reservations improvements below, or watch the video here.

1. Kiosk Mode for Rooms

Give patrons an instant snapshot of room availability the moment they walk through your doors. Kiosk Mode lets staff display a live schedule on any tablet or monitor and even allows on‑the‑spot bookings when a space is free.

2. Kiosk Mode via QR Code

No spare screens? Print a flyer with a unique QR code instead. Patrons simply scan, view the real‑time schedule on their phones, and reserve an open room in seconds.

3. New Booking Schedules: Week & List Views

Whether you’re planning next week’s events or need a quick, scrollable list of upcoming reservations, two new calendar views make it easier to spot open time slots and create bookings in a single click.

4. Export Bookings to CSV

Need a custom report for a board meeting or community grant? Download filtered booking data—complete with notes and form responses—straight to CSV for quick analysis and printing.

5. Prevent Same‑Day Bookings

Set how many days in advance you would like patrons to be able to reserve rooms (e.g., 24 hours) so staff have time to prepare rooms and resources. It’s a simple safeguard against last‑minute surprises.

6. Tagging Meeting Rooms

Group spaces with tags like Study Rooms, Makerspace, or Outdoor. Staff can filter by tag today, and patrons will soon be able to do the same on public booking pages—making the right space even easier to find.

These updates were added to keep libraries thriving as patron needs surrounding library room reservations evolve. Ready to see them in action? Visit whofi.com/demo to schedule a meeting and live walkthrough.
