Easy-to-Use Space Booking Widgets
Reducing friction is essential when you're trying to keep the attention of your users.
Put booking a room or space right at the point of need with a widget on your library website, on your maker space page, in your LibGuides system, and other online resources.
The Hours Widget Saves Everyone Time
Very often, when someone reaches out to you, it's to ask, "What are your hours today?" The hours widgets take care of those queries.
Widgets Options:
- Today's Hours
- Daily Hours
- Weekly Grid View
