Recently, PCIN libraries were informed that KitKeeper, the booking software used to reserve book club kits, will be unavailable as of December 31, 2024. The parent company has decided to shut down at the end of this year. Due to this short notice, we are unable to provide an alternative booking method immediately. Book club kits will still be available to our library users, in a limited form, until June 2025, when we hope to have a new system in place.
Until then, it is important to note that current kit bookings will be honoured until June 2025. In order to have these bookings recorded before KitKeeper is taken offline, we ask that clubs place any bookings for kits they would like to use between January and June 2025, by DECEMBER 21, 2024.
No new bookings or drop-in requests for kits will be accommodated after December 21, until our new procedures are in place. Only bookings made prior to December 21 will be filled for your club between January and June 2025. We hope to have a new booking system up and running by the time clubs are wanting to place holds for the next book club season. We thank you for your understanding as we make a rapid pivot to a new software platform.
