Features

A rich set of features

The FOLIO LSP includes functionality in each of the domains that support the library’s operations such as circulation, acquisitions, cataloging and e-resources management. Each domain may consist of multiple, smaller apps (for example a check-in or checkout app within the circulation domain). For example, features include the ability to:

  • Manage the library inventory including cataloging and bibliographic management functions
  • Manage vendors, budgets, orders and invoicing when acquiring materials
  • Manage electronic resources including holdings, licenses and agreements
  • Manage users including library staff, faculty and students
  • Support different patron types, loan types, fine and fee structures, recalls, and holds, as well as reporting functions
  • Circulate items and define circulation rules including loan, fines, notices and requests policies
  • Manage data import and export
