How does Accessit empower Students to Learn, Explore, and Discover?
Helping Students Pave Their Own Learning Journey.
Every student’s learning journey is unique. Accessit Library gives them the freedom to explore, research, and read in the way that works best for them – whether that’s through videos, audiobooks, podcasts, or printed books. Our goal isn’t to tell them what to read, but to help them find what excites them and keep them coming back for more.
Students need school libraries
Every student deserves a well-resourced and easily accessible library. The tie between libraries and academic success is well documented. It’s been proven that reading for pleasure is the single most important indicator of a child’s future success. Accessit helps to engage your students in your school library catalogue, supporting them in their reading and discovery.
Supporting research
Students need access to credible online sources at a moment’s notice. Accessit’s One Search enables students to reach curated resources across all your online content providers, in a single search.
Engaging student interface
With an attractive and customisable homepage, and an interactive user experience, your students will love engaging with the online catalogue (Web App). They can manage their own library experience and reach everything they need with a single login.
Intelligent searching
Searching with Accessit is varied and inclusive, catering for misspellings, truncations, phonetic spelling, and visual learners – ensuring all your students find the resources they need.
With personalised, individual access to borrower areas, and bright, colourful features like the visual search facility, my library catalogue has never looked better both inside and out! My life is so much easier as a result, the students love it!

I recommend Accessit primarily because of what seems to be the core values of the company. You deliver a very good stable and responsive package, you listen to your customers and you don’t try to take the micky about pricing. Exactly what every librarian is looking for.

I’ve used several library management systems, and Accessit is by far the best. The support is fantastic and so quick, the videos are really user friendly and the product is brilliant. I can’t fault it!

We moved over from our previous system to Accessit Library and WOW what a difference. I would liken it to moving from an Acorn Electron to an iPhone 10!

Accessit saves time and delivers at every level. Stocktaking is a breeze, updating records and cataloguing is quick and easy. It’s intuitive, fun to use and has made my job so much easier. The support and training is also second to none. I totally recommend it to any school – so many of us have it and love it.
