Fond du Lac Library Reduces Cost and Improves Patron Satisfaction with AtoZdatabases

AtoZdatabases helps libraries across the country reduce costs, improve efficiency and increase patron satisfaction.

Omaha, NE (PRWEB) April 03, 2012
AtoZdatabases, a leading provider of marketing and reference databases to Libraries and Government Agencies across the United States, is pleased to announce Fond du Lac Public Library as another recent library to join the network of libraries that have chosen AtoZdatabases as their premier reference and marketing database because of the value.

AtoZdatabases helps libraries across the country reduce costs, improve efficiency and increase patron satisfaction. The company compiles, augments and independently verifies data from hundreds of directories, so libraries can eliminate redundant reference subscriptions. In addition, AtoZdatabases makes all its information available electronically through one, simple, user-friendly interface. Consequently, patrons are more likely to self-serve both on-site and remotely rather than rely on help from overburdened library staff.
Daryl Rogers, Reference Librarian at Fond du Lac Public Library, said, “Their interface is really intuitive and that makes it very easy and quick to find what I’m looking for. In fact, one of our patrons mentioned they liked using AtoZ[databases] better than Google.”

In one month, library patrons accessed AtoZdatabases 910 times, as measured by log-ins. Prior to AtoZdatabases, the library subscribed to a competitor. Over the course of a year, the competitor was only accessed 150 to 200 times per month, on average or less than ¼ of the frequency experienced with AtoZdatabases.
“User-friendly not only describes the interface but the entire organization,” stated Rogers. “It’s a reliable, service oriented culture. In the six months we’ve been using AtoZ, we’ve had no downtime. Service consistency is very important to us and our patrons. What’s more, when I’ve had a question or needed additional information, everyone I spoke with at AtoZ was very knowledgeable, courteous and responsive. It’s hard to find that today.”

Library patrons have complete access to over 300 Million records in over 8 databases:
·         Executive Emails – 8 Million
·         Businesses – 30 Million
·         Business Executives – 29 Million
·         New Businesses – 50,000 added weekly
·         Residents & Homeowners – 210 Million Residents & 90 Million Homeowners
·         New Homeowners – 50,000 added weekly
·         New Movers – 200,000 added weekly
