Our Approach

At LSSI, we create an environment that brings our librarians out from behind the scenes and outfront serving their customers. We work with local library boards and interest groups to develop programs specific to the needs of the community. And, we carefully listen to civic managers, and design thoughtful library solutions that meet growth, funding and community challenges.

A major focus of our brand promise is to help envision and deliver the next generation of libraries, fully leveraging advanced online information services and automation technologies. Because of our scope LSSI is better positioned than any single library or library system to bring exciting, new, and valuable solutions to the communities and institutions we serve.

LSSI is a library services firm founded by librarians. As the national corporate leader in library management services since 1981, we feel a great responsibility to leverage and share the collective experience of hundreds of our top library professionals. Whereas an individual library can become isolated and out-of-date, our nationwide library network puts fresh ideas based on sound library practices into play every new day.

LSSI is proud to be a force for new opportunity. As one of the largest employers of library professionals, we create new career opportunities every day. As creative problem solvers, we bring new options and opportunities to challenged communities and community leaders. Our vision for the brighter future for libraries fuels the opportunities we create, and betters the communities we serve.
