Add Internet access to your Concourse library catalog!
The development of the Internet raised the bar for information access. Your patrons are no exception - they expect the same accessibility to their local library's catalog. Book Systems provides innovative Web-server technology for Concourse customers that can make it happen in a snap, giving your patrons 24/7 access to your library.

WebOPAC enhances Concourse by providing instant access through an Internet or local intranet connection. Using a standard Web browser from home, a favorite coffee shop, or virtually anywhere else with an Internet connection, patrons can take advantage of WebOPAC's powerful search options to view the library's collection anywhere, anytime.

WebOPAC supports Easy Word (keyword), Title, Author, Subject, ISBN, Visual, and Study Program (Accelerated Reader, Reading Counts!, etc.) searches. Even more advanced searches are available with WebOPAC's Combo and Expert (Boolean logic) searches.

Your patrons will also like the WebOPAC themes - KidZviZ (Pre-K through 3rd grade library explorer's toolbox) and other eye-catching themes make searching appealing to all ages. Likewise, patrons will enjoy the benefit of searching for cataloged electronic media resources like e-books, PDF files, Word documents, and Web sites.

WebOPAC allows patrons to check items on loan, to request items, to build their own bibliography lists, and more. Access is secured with a PIN number.

From hardware failure to hurricanes, disasters never strike at a good time. Is your anti-virus software up-to-date? Do viruses go undetected? We can protect against the havoc that any disaster could wreak on your system, and have you up and running again in no time. Subscribe and use Book Systems' Remote Backup Service (RBS) to recover your Concourse database after disaster occurs.

RBS is an exclusive service for Concourse customers. As a subscriber, you receive immediate benefits of security and peace of mind. Protect your library's investment by implementing a disaster recovery plan using RBS to store your database files off-site. You decide how often you need the backup to occur and we do the rest.

How RBS works
Your database files are securely uploaded to a server at Book Systems. Once we receive your files, they are scanned and verified. If corrupt data or a virus is found, we notify you immediately. Necessary steps will be taken to remove virus(es) and/or repair the damaged data. Should you need help with data that is overwritten, damaged, or is missing - simply contact our Technical Support for aid in restoring your backup.
