Less coordination, more time for your program

Without centralized booking, you're juggling calendars, phone lists, and keys, making it easy to lose track.

Double bookings and underutilized resources

Without clear rules, reservations collide and places remain unused. This wastes program time, frustrates users, and obstructs planning.

High administrative effort around registrations and no-shows

Waitlists, cancellations, and reminders occupy staff, although much can be automated. Transparent processes and consistent information on-site are lacking.

Everything for spaces, workstations, devices, and software

Manage resources, access, and classes centrally, integrate calendars, and gain reliable data for management and promotion.

Smartly manage rooms, workspaces, and equipment

Make learning spaces, zones, shared desks, and makerspace equipment intuitively findable, and prevent conflicts through rules and dependencies.

  • Booking page with categories, filters, and locations

  • Interactive 3D room planner for zones, seats, and studios

  • Smart availability and multiple availabilities without double bookings

How to use anny in the city library

Industry Insights

How Digital Booking Strengthens the City Library

Digital Self-Booking has become the expectation in public institutions. Many users prefer online reservations over phone calls, wanting to see transparent availabilities and secure a suitable slot immediately. Libraries are evolving into vibrant learning spaces with work areas, community labs, and programs that require reliable planning. Clear bookings create commitment, reduce spontaneous cancellations, and increase the utilization of rooms, equipment, and zones. For networks with multiple locations, having a unified view of capacities is essential. Equally important are barrier-free interfaces and consistent information on room displays and websites. Analyses of target groups and times help refine offerings and justify funding criteria. Those who book in a structured manner today can plan more flexibly tomorrow.
