Library staff has expressed enthusiasm for the integration of Vega Program alongside other modules of the Innovative library marketing suite, including Vega\u2122 Discover, and Vega\u2122 Promote.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cWe love pushing the limits of all three programs and have been thrilled with the results,\u201d said Kelsey Lamphier, Director of Surprise Arts, Culture &amp; Library Department.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The excitement is palpable, as Vega Program has already proven to be a tremendous asset. Since July 2023, when Surprise Public Library adopted the Vega Program events tool during its transition to a city-operated system, it has provided the community with 1,000+ offerings, attracting more than 28,000 attendees.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cVega Program has been a tremendous asset for the Surprise Public Library System. Library staff find the software easy to use and it has improved both our process efficiency and our ability to market our programs,\u201d Kelsey added.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cOur patrons enjoy the user-friendly interface to find all of our library programs,\u201d she continued. \u201cThe ability to manage room reservations has been a major community benefit. Patrons love to quickly see the room availability and easily reserve space online.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">From popular initiatives like the Summer and Winter Reading programs to unique events such as Touch-a-Truck and the Halloween Tale Trail, the library is a hub for learning, entertainment, and connection. With activities ranging from adult crafts to child fort-making, Surprise Public Library System is committed to providing diverse opportunities for all ages.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">With the consolidation of library branches, including Asante, Hollyhock, and Surprise Regional Library, the City of Surprise has embraced an opportunity to enhance its cultural offerings. The Arts, Culture &amp; Library Department is now positioned to innovate and expand programs that cater to the diverse needs of Surprise residents.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A particularly significant advantage of Vega Program is its room reservation management feature. For many library patrons, the ability to quickly check room availability and easily reserve spaces online has been a game-changer. This functionality has allowed the library to serve the community better, providing seamless access to facilities for events, meetings, and other gatherings. The Surprise Public Library System has effectively transformed into a communal space where learning and social interactions flourish.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iii.com\/products\/vega\/program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vega Program<\/a>, designed specifically by and for librarians, simplifies the complexities of event planning and room management. Its powerful administrative tools grant libraries comprehensive control over event management, attendee communications, and program marketing. By streamlining these processes, the library staff can dedicate more time to creating engaging programs that resonate with their audience.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Surprise Public Library System stands as a testament to the power of community engagement through innovative programming. With the implementation of the Vega Program, the library network has not only enhanced its operational efficiency but has also enriched the experience for its patrons. As the library continues to evolve and expand its offerings, it remains committed to fostering a culture of learning, connection, and fun within the community.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Vega Program is available for libraries of all types. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iii.com\/contact-me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Request a demo<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> or visit the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iii.com\/products\/vega\/program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Innovative website<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> to learn more.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Innovative\u2122, part of Clarivate\u2122, is proud to share that the Surprise Public Library System in Arizona celebrated one year of successful activities and events with the Vega\u2122 Program library event &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iii.com\/whats-new\/surprise-public-library-celebrates-a-year-of-event-management-with-vega-program\/\">Continued<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":33612,"template":"","categories":[472,11,415,517,514,520],"tags":[547],"class_list":["post-33611","blog","type-blog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcements","category-public","category-vega","category-vega-discover","category-vega-program","category-vega-promote","tag-library-events"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.0 -
