What is TinyCat?
TinyCat is the ILS and online catalogue powered by LibraryThing. Targeting small libraries, it's a simple, yet powerful, system to manage your collection, patrons, and circulation.
Import your existing collection, from MARC or other formats.
Copy catalog from over 4,900 libraries and other sources.
Leverage the power of LibraryThing to add tags, covers, and other metadata.
Enhance your data with LibraryThing's series, awards, published reviews, and over two million user reviews.
Online Catalog - Mobile-ready, right out of the gate.
True faceted searching, like one of those expensive "discovery systems."
Stable URLs and social media buttons mean users can share what’s in your library anywhere on the web.
Simple circulation system designed for small libraries.
Holds, renewals, overdues, reminder emails, circulation exports, and automated reports.
Optional patron accounts, with patron sign-in and borrowing history.
Includes an even simpler circulation system for high-trust environments, like classroom libraries.
