Enhancing Community Engagement with Easy Communications

With Apollo’s new Gabbie 2-way texting feature, patrons can experience an exciting and innovative way to engage with their library. Now they’re able to have easy one-on-one conversations via text messaging while quickly accessing account information without any distracting staff action. Plus, libraries now have the ability to offer a convenient “Ask A Librarian” type of service through custom SMS/cell numbers that can be advertised on websites or in other marketing outlets – no third party solution needed!

Features:

2-Way Texting with Auto-Commands

Communicate directly with patrons via SMS from your Apollo console.  Automatic services like renewals and account status can serve your patrons with no staff intervention required.

No Phone Equipment Needed

We provide you a dedicated SMS number useable directly through your Apollo dashboard – no need for additional hardward.

Integrated Dashboard Alerts

Manage conversations directly from the Apollo dashboard with both visual and audio notifications. 

After-Hours Replies

A patron who text messages the library after hours gets and automatic reply notifying them of the closure.

Flexible Chat Widget

Insert a chat box into any desired webpage including your Apollo catalog.
