Here is a slideshow guide to TitleSource 360, the online ordering software.

Looking for ideas of books to recommend or purchase? We can help. Our friends in IT developed this a truly fabulous tool we can use to get you a list of the top 10, 25, 50 or 100 titles in your choice of material types at your choice of locations. We can download a spreadsheet of, say, your school’s top 10 to create a poster for your library. Pictured above, you’ll see the first few of the top 25 Teen titles checked out since Jan. 1, 2023 at both IndyPL and Shared System locations. You can click on the hyperlinked titles in the spreadsheet (so thoughtful – thank you, IT friends!) to see if you own a copy, and request a couple to tempt some readers if you don’t.
Let us know your preferred date range, material type, and number of top titles. We should be able to get you the report within 24 hours. Sooner if we’re lucky!
