Spydus, enabling Western Australia's regional library consortium to grow from 17 to 34 libraries in 6 months
The Regional Western Australia Library Consortium (RWALC), supported by Spydus, has experienced rapid growth by increasing its library count from 17 to 34 within the past six months. Covering a vast geographical area from Albany to Pilbara, RWALC emerges as the largest group of local government libraries in Australia.
From its roots in Albany as a Spydus hub, this consortium continues to provide library services that enable seamless sharing of resources, such as inter-library loans across multiple libraries.
Additionally, Spydus’ flexible consortium capabilities allow Albany Public Library to efficiently manage contracts, subscriptions, and support for all consortium libraries, ensuring equitable solutions based on population.
