Watch our video here.
"Our success with ResourceMate® (and Web OPAC) is the major factor in the increased recognition our organization is receiving. People all over the world are discovering that we are here and have things that no one else does – something we didn’t know either until this project took off."
Sheila Moll, Vincent Graves Greene Philatelic, customer since 2001.

Make your library searchable on the web for just $299 per year. Add an optional password to restrict your audience. ResourceMate® Web OPAC is a great way to increase the awareness and accessibility of your library!
We host your web OPAC on our server.
Note: This Web OPAC is not available for users of ResourceMate 3.0. Contact us if you are still using 3.0 and have not yet upgraded to the Family of Products (4.0).
Benefits
- Promote your library by taking it to the people instead of asking them to come to you.
- Your library will now be available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day allowing anyone in the world, who you have given your password to (optional), to search whenever convenient for them.
- Curious "surfers" may drop by and search for their favorite subject or author, just to try out this new feature you have told them about.
- A book bin is available so patrons can accumulate items across multiple searches, then print or email to themselves or someone else.
- Display New Items, Most Checked out items, Featured items, Popular items
- Patrons can login (optional) and optionally view checked out items, fines and payments, circulation history, request holds and request renews
- Full flexibility. You decide what is available.
- You can have two or more web OPAC's from your one collection (multiple fees per year apply). This is handy if you have a public collection (limited) as well as a staff only collection (all items). Another example is a children's and adults library contained within the same ResourceMate database.
- Search two or more collections at the same time (Inter-Library). This is great for school districts as well as multiple locations of any organization.
What do I need to make my library searchable on the web?
You need to have ResourceMate 4.0 and internet access on your ResourceMate computers that are maintaining the database.
Note: It is not necessary for your ResourceMate computer to be on when the daily or weekly update of your data is taking place.
Upon setup you will receive the url that your website can link to so people can search your collection.
