We would like to share some of the feedback we received from the judges:

“The adoption of Meescan technology has greatly improved our self-check operations over our previous technology. I am continually impressed with not only the functionality of their system, but also their customer support. It’s shown to be a great improvement to our overall operations.”

“It has been one of the easiest wins for our team. The installation and setup process was smooth and straightforward… Their team has been consistently responsive and supportive. When we’ve identified features we’d like to see added or improved, they’ve made every effort to accommodate us.”

“Their team continues to check in regularly to ensure our needs are being met. Every person we’ve interacted with at Meescan has been friendly, generous with their time, and clearly committed to excellent service.”

About the Modern Library Awards program

The Modern Library Awards (MLAs) is a program designed to recognize elite products and services in the library market which can help library management personnel enhance the quality-of-experience for the library user and increase the performance of their library systems.

The MLAs were created to recognize the top products and services in the library industry in a truly unbiased format. Products and services were submitted in the fall using a simple application, and then were posted on a private site with an enhanced description and attendant materials. These products were batched into small groups and sent to the LibraryWorks database of more than 80,000 librarians at public, K-12, academic, and special libraries. Only customers with experience with these products/services in their facilities were permitted to judge the products/services, resulting in a truly unbiased score.
