Today we’re happy to announce the official launch of TinyCat, the online catalog solution for tiny libraries. In other words, YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Check it out here! https://www.librarycat.org

What’s this all about? Religious institutions, community centers, small schools and other “tiny” libraries (up to 20,000 items) have used LibraryThing to catalog their collections for years. TinyCat gives them an attractive and powerful library catalog, with easy-to-use circulation and patron-account features.

• Simple. TinyCat is simple and clean. Faceted searching adds power.
• Mobile. TinyCat looks and works great on every device and platform.
• Professional. Robust circulation and patron log-in features, and a “Simple Circulation” option for classroom libraries.
• Flexible. Import and export MARC records.
• Secure. HTTPS always.
• Enhanced. Enhanced with optional professional and user reviews, recommendations, and more.
