An org code is a short acronym that Plymouth Rocket uses to identify different organizations. It can be found at the very top of the Org Configuration screen. It will always be in capital letters:

TixKeeper or KitKeeper? Managing hotspots, library of things, games collection, and programming kits

TixKeeper or KitKeeper? Managing hotspots, library of things, games collection, and programming kits
+

Whether it is mobile hot spots, ereaders, STEM kits, programming kits, or a Library of Things, Plymouth Rocket offers two software platforms to help manage special item collections. 

Our museum pass software TixKeeper and our book club collection software Kitkeeper can both be used to manage special collection.  There are benefits to using TixKeeper or KitKeeper based on what you need.  Both programs can track reservations, send confirmations to patrons, and maintain usage statistics.  Patrons can reserve items in advance and the staff can keep track of past, present, and future reservations.  Both programs can provide detailed information about the devices and resources as well as availability.  Each option allows for staff only collections that can only be reserved and used by staff members.

Feature TixKeeper KitKeeper
Buffer days allowing items to be shipped between libraries  
Patrons can book in advance
Block out same-day pickup  
Include images and videos in descriptions  
Add library barcode authentication and rules
Staff-only collections that don't display to the public  
Limit number of item reservations and check-outs
Limit reservations during a window of days  
Set days the libray is closed for item pickup  

When to use TixKeeper for resource management

  • For collections with check out periods as short as one day (due that very same day) or as long as several weeks.
  • For on the fly check outs or short reservation periods. Devices can be checked out for one day and returned the next in TixKeeper.
  • Items that live in one location and can be picked up by patrons there. THere are no built-in buffer days in TixKeeper.
  • For users interested in a mobile friendly platform. TixKeeper is responsive and looks great on various mobile devices.

Great examples of libraries using TixKeeper for resource management:

Bellingham Public Library

West Islip Public Library

When to use KitKeeper for resource management

  • For collections with check out periods that are a week or more
  • Items that can be sent from one branch to another for check out. KitKeeper has a built in system for allowing time for transit in between branches.
  • For collections that include devices, programming kits, as well as book club kit, which are bags with several copies of the same title for book club users.
  • For staff only collections that can only be accessed and seen by staff members. TixKeeper can also have staff only collections, but patrons will be able to see that they exist.

Great example of libraries using KitKeeper for resource management:

Sandown Public Library

South Carolina State Library

Mayville State Univeristy

Please contact us for more information about resource management software.  We would be happy to set up a web demo to go over the possibilities with you.
