The digital foundation for modern libraries

Libraries allow us to understand the past and help shape the future. They are an essential part of our education system and play a key part in the evolution of modern knowledge societies. The library is a cultural space. A knowledge hub. Often the only place where you can sit for free, for as long as you like, in warm and safe surroundings. It is a place for parents and prams, for knitting clubs, enjoying the daily paper, or simply being.  

However, the library has also taken on a changing and new role in society. New demands are made on staff who must focus an increasing part of their efforts on local community responsibility and experiences. This puts pressure on time and competencies as it leaves less time for intricate cataloguing and administrative work – and it increases the need for well-designed user interfaces, frictionless workflows, and smooth integrations to external systems.

Digitising Denmark: Joint Library System

Our leading library management system, Cicero, currently powers every Danish public and school library across 98 municipalities. Every year, we help Danish libraries handle more than 50 million loans to more than four million patrons.

Cicero was originally created as a national Danish initiative to allow all the nation’s libraries to collaborate on building the strongest, most modern library system possible – and to continue developing it.  

With Cicero, the Danish libraries now take full advantage of their data and ensure efficient workflows to make the most of their available resources – both personnel and materials.

Designed as a ‘software-as-a-service’ platform, Cicero is continuously and seamlessly updated, and all upgrades are made available for all customers across markets.

By leveraging a shared data platform, Danish libraries can offer shared materials to users in every municipality, creating equal opportunity for interlibrary loans across the country.
