TLC Updates Its ILS Software and Launches a Customer Newsletter
The Library Corp. (TLC) announced “new software version general releases for both its CARL•Solution (2025 Release 2) and Library•Solution (v5.9) Integrated Library Systems; … and the launch of Nerd Rabbit News, a customer newsletter focusing on what’s new at TLC.”CARL•Solution 2025 Release 2 “ brings updates to CARL•Connect Discovery that enhance the search and browsing experience for patrons with intuitive, Google-like searching that detects stop words and delivers the most relevant results first. Location-smart searching also ensures that materials available at the patron’s current branch rise to the top of the search results automatically, even without logging in—making it easier than ever for users to find the right results at the right location, right when they need them.” Library•Solution v5.9 now allows users to “manage hold requests more efficiently by declining holds, adding comments, replacing holds, and marking items as Missing. This version also allows printing and exporting of hold request details, with support for higher screen resolutions to enhance usability.” In addition, “TLC launched the inaugural edition of Nerd Rabbit News on January 15th. The Nerd Rabbit—a grassroots mascot of TLC’s annual user group, TLCU—has expanded its role beyond the conference to promote more content to customers more frequently. This once-a-month, at-a-glance roundup of TLC news for the month ahead includes webinars, events, useful tips, and the occasional customer story, all in one place, with links to anything customers wish to explore further.” For more information, read the news item.
