National Library Week is just around the corner, and we are sure you're gearing up to celebrate. This is the perfect time to reflect on how your current practices can be updated to best serve your library staff and guests.
Librarians play an incredibly important role in our access to knowledge and resources to help us learn and grow. They deserve to be celebrated for their efforts, and we’re here to help. If you’re looking for products to make your library staff’s jobs a bit easier, we've got you covered. Our range of ID products is practical, functional, and stylish, allowing your library employees to express their unique personalities while getting the job done. Here are a few of our favorites:
1. Premium Blank PVC Cards
During National Library Week, you should turn your attention to updating some of your older and outdated materials and processes. When was the last time you took a look at your library cards or labeling system? Making sure that visitors have all of the necessary information to find the correct resources and check them out properly is essential to maintaining a functioning library. With our premium blank PVC cards, you can upgrade your library like never before.
These cards are not only durable and long-lasting but also completely blank, giving you the freedom to customize them as per your library's theme. Try using them to section off different bookshelves by genre or to verify guest membership to your location. Guests will love them, and they’ll add a new spark to your library's look.
2. Translucent Badge Reel
Are you looking to celebrate National Library Week in style? Jazz up your staff's uniforms with some fun and functional accessories like our translucent badge reels.
These reels are not only practical for carrying your staff's identification but also come in a range of vibrant colors that are sure to add a pop of personality to their work outfits or uniforms. (They can even be paired with school colors if you work at a university library!). Plus, the swivel clip ensures that the reel stays securely attached to clothing without causing any discomfort. It will be much easier for your staff to keep their materials handy while assisting patrons with their book requests.
Make this National Library Week even more special by upgrading your staff's work attire with our badge reels.
3. Vinyl ID Holder
Another way you can improve your library’s accessories is by upgrading your badging systems. Maybe your staff needs a convenient way to indicate to visitors that they’re employees, or your guests need a pass for the bathroom or certain areas of the building. Our vinyl ID holder is the perfect fix!
These card holders are flexible and durable and designed to securely fit most ID cards, making them easily visible to guests and staff. Plus, these cardholders are clear, which means the information will be easily displayed without removing anything from the badge holder. They are the best way to help visitors know where to turn when they need assistance and to streamline library visitor management systems.
4. Vinyl Credential Neck Wallet
Sometimes your staff will need to carry multiple items while on the job, especially in periods of inventory increases or when reshelving returned books. That’s where our vinyl credential neck wallet comes in. This product will allow your staff to carry their identification in addition to a pen, notebook, or any other recording materials they may need to ensure the job gets done right.
With this lanyard wallet, your employees can store their employee credentials in the clear ID window for quick identification, secure a pen or pencil in the side loop, and fit a small notebook, sticky notes, or anything else they may need while reorganizing the library’s stock. This neck wallet is not only spacious enough to hold their essentials but also comes with an adjustable lanyard that makes it easy to carry around. Don’t let your staff go without them!
