Statewide Library Solutions
The Challenge:
State libraries skillfully provide comprehensive support and oversight to libraries across their jurisdiction. However, it has been brought to our attention that finding tools that will be used to help accomplish these goals can be a challenge. This sometimes results in frustration from wasted resources, missed opportunities for improvement, and a disconnect between available resources and library needs.
The Solution:
All-in-one library membership management allows libraries to plan, promote, and report on all of the various services offered at their location for the state survey. WhoFi offers a tailored solution to address the specific needs of state librarians, providing tools and support that are designed to be impactful and easily integrated into library workflows.
By offering consistent data collection methods and simplifying complex processes such as annual survey completion, WhoFi empowers state librarians to provide tangible value to their libraries and make apples to apples comparisons. State libraries can ensure that the resources and support they provide result in measurable benefits for libraries and their communities.
Consistent Data Collection: WhoFi ensures standardized data collection methods across all libraries within the state, enabling state librarians to gather accurate and comparable information for reporting and analysis.
Simplified Annual Surveys: Our platform simplifies the process of completing annual surveys for participating libraries, reducing administrative burden and ensuring timely and accurate submission of data to national reporting to the IMLS.
