Heritage CIRQA in School LIBRARIEs AND RESOURCE CENTRES

There is a myth in this industry that schools require a 'simple' library system. It is not surprising therefore to find a number of such systems available in the marketplace. These systems demonstrate well, because they are apparently easy to understand, but soon run out of steam in practice. In our experience the school library is a demanding environment; it often holds large stocks of resources, with a growing range of e-resources, and can experience fast and frantic activity throughout the day. This is no place for a 'simple' system.

We have hundreds of schools libraries running Heritage or Heritage Cirqa, and many of them make extensive use of the sophisticated features it contains. Heritage Cirqa users appreciate what it does for them now, but also what it will do for them in the future.

In addition to comprehensive and reliable library software, we also provide excellent support for our users. Upgrades are included in the modest annual support fee, which is why many of our schools have used Heritage for over twenty years!
