MCHENRY, Ill., Aug. 1, 2019 — With the 2019-20 school year approaching, Follett has released Destiny 17.0, a new version of the market-leading solution featuring important enhancements to Destiny Library Manager, Destiny Discover, Collections by Destiny, and Destiny Resource Manager.

Follett has scheduled a "What's Coming in Destiny 17.0" webinar, which is set for 3 p.m. EDT on Tuesday (Aug. 6).

Destiny 17.0 highlights include:

The four student-friendly theme options include space, kids outside, aquarium and book fair. Also, new to the discovery interface are customizable homepage options for news, links and more, as well as easy-to-see search results and clickable links.
• Destiny Library Manager. Two new enhancements will protect patron information and privacy during the self-checkout process. Plus, new options are being introduced to streamline the book check-in process at any site in the district.
• Destiny Resource Manager. A new feature will allow users to see the number of items on-hand when ordering resources from a district warehouse. Users will be able to easily order new items and ship any that are available for circulation to the requesting site.
