AGent for the Library

The AGent™ platform is the most modern, comprehensive and effective resource management platform available today, allowing libraries to manage, share and search their resources. The AGent integrated product suite – currently used by more than 6,000 libraries in North America – is comprised of AGent Iluminar™ a next generation patron user interface; AGent VERSO™ a complete integrated library system; AGent Resource Sharing™ a robust interlibrary loan and consortial borrowing solution; and AGent Search™ a powerful federated search application. AGent products are standards-compliant, built with an open systems architecture and are available via the Software as a Service (SaaS) hosted delivery model.
