Welcome to the heart of every school, the library.

A place where knowledge thrives and curiosity knows no bounds.

Meet Oliver, the ultimate companion for school libraries and the product of listening to librarians for over 40 years. Packed with interactive features to keep students reading, Oliver transforms the library into a dynamic learning environment.

With its intuitive search interface, finding the perfect resource is just a few clicks away, whether that’s a physical book, embedded video or an ebook, your students can access it all without ever leaving Oliver, on both computers and mobile devices. Personalised recommendations will keep students coming back for more of what they love. They can even earn badges for completing achievements, like leaving book reviews for their peers.

Plus, with fully customisable news pages, staying updated on library activities has never been easier.

But what about your younger students? Meet Orbit, your dedicated Junior School search interface. Alongside the user-friendly search and filtering options is the pick and click feature, allowing students to find a book they’ll love through picture based searching. With customisable avatars, colour themes and backgrounds, Orbit provides an immersive browsing experience and empowers students to take ownership of their literacy journey.

For library staff, Oliver simplifies management tasks with an intuitive management interface. Instantly access important information with the Library Overview Dashboard. Gone are the days of tedious cataloguing, Oliver’s comprehensive cataloguing capabilities mean it’s a breeze to organise books, digital resources, and multimedia materials, ensuring accurate search and retrieval for students and staff alike.

Oliver isn’t just about organisation, it’s about insight. With over 350 report templates that can be customised and automated, tracking circulation statistics, analysing usage patterns and generating insightful reports for stakeholders could not be simpler.

In today’s digital landscape, integration is key and Oliver doesn’t disappoint. Oliver seamlessly integrates with your school’s existing software, including school administration systems, e-learning tools and digital media platforms.

We believe there is no such thing as too secure! With a dedicated security team always working to stay ahead of threats and enhance our system, as well as being the first library software to be assessed by ST4S, you can be sure your students data is safe with us.

Future proof your school library with Oliver, the library management solution that grows with your students.
