A quick and easy onboarding process — here's what to expect
The school exports its book list from the existing system and we import it into Pgishonim with the click of a button.
When a student or teacher wants to borrow a book, the librarian marks in the system which book was taken and the loan is recorded in the personal file.
Before the estimated return date, the borrower receives a reminder to return the book on time. After the due date has passed, the borrower receives alerts to return the book, along with a notification to the librarian.
With the click of a button, the librarian marks that the student or teacher has returned the book, and the loan is recorded and counted.

Since we implemented the Pgishonim library management system at our school, we have seen a significant improvement in the way the library is run and in how it functions. The system allows efficient and comprehensive management of all the books, with complete transparency regarding their availability. The comprehensive digital catalog makes it easy to find books and track their status, and the simple management of loans lets us follow loan history, return dates, overdue items, alerts and more. As a result, we are seeing a significant drop in lost books and in delayed returns. As the school principal, the system gives me peace of mind where the library is concerned. I can follow every action carried out in the system and get a full, up-to-date picture of the state of the library.
I have worked as a librarian in a high school for many years. I always loved the books and the special atmosphere of the library, but running it was no simple challenge. Keeping track of books, managing loans and making sure they were available to the students took a great deal of time and effort. I heard about the Pgishonim library management system, and at first I was a little wary of the change, but I decided to try. I fell in love with the system from the very first moment. The comprehensive digital catalog let me track every book easily, managing loans became simple and easy, and I always knew which books were available and where. The change was felt among the students too. They enjoyed the digital catalog, received alerts about return dates, and were far less often disappointed to discover that the book they were looking for was unavailable.
As a veteran librarian with many years of experience, I am delighted to share my impressions of the Pgishonim library management system. The system is a significant breakthrough in the management of school libraries. It allows efficient and comprehensive management of every aspect of the library, from a comprehensive digital catalog through to tracking loan history. The digital catalog is easy to use and accessible to every student. It allows books to be found quickly and easily, while presenting detailed information about each book, including its availability status. The loan management system is simple and intuitive, and allows close tracking of every book on loan. Return dates, overdue items, alerts and more can all be followed easily.
Since we started using the Pgishonim library management system, my work as a librarian has become far easier and more efficient. The system has saved me a great deal of time and trouble, and it has let me run the library much better. The digital catalog is comprehensive and easy to use, and I can easily track every book in the library. The status of the books is updated automatically, so I always know which books are available and which are not. Managing loans is simple and easy, and I can easily see who borrowed which book, when it is due back and whether anything is overdue. The system also sends me automatic alerts before the expected return date, which helps me make sure the books come back on time.
