The Springy Signal over Gotham
When you're at the drawing board and drawing a blank... know this, we didn't build a white flag into Readle. There's no escape hatch. No reset button. No additional lives. Nope. Two heads are better than one, so Readle comes with a brainstorm Springy Signal. If you're stumped -- get pumped. The system allows you to trigger a call for craniums to help you solve the puzzle and get back to your patron. Say goodbye to emailing the regional listserv for help, the Springy Signal projects a call for help into the night sky.
If a tree falls in the forest and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound? Not sure, but if a tree solves a Readle and helps a patron branch out or fall into a new literary adventure -- we're sure that tree is not about to stay silent! Whether the puzzle was on the easy side or one that had you upping your ginko dosage, you have the right to get your brag on. Springshare ensures an easy way to share your wins on your various channels.
Once you’ve correctly identified the book, put it on hold for the patron with a simple click! That's right, Readle has ILS Integration so you can connect your patrons with the books they've been looking for without having to open a pesky OPAC.
BONUS MODULE: Have a lot of heavy ILL users? Readle+ connects directly to WorldCat so you can request any esoteric book with ease!
