Press Release: Unique Management Services [March 25, 2026]

Unique to exhibit, connect with public library leaders at PLA 2026 Conference

Unique is excited to announce that we will be represented at this year's Public Library Association (PLA) Conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The PLA Conference brings together public library leaders from across the country to share ideas, discuss emerging challenges, and explore new ways to serve their communities. Unique looks forward to joining these conversations and connecting with the professionals shaping the future of public libraries.

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with President Rob Klaus at booth #833 and learn about Unique's solutions like MessageBee, our Automated Borrower Tools, and Gentle Nudge Material Recovery. Unique welcomes the chance to discuss how libraries are evolving their approach to patron communication, account management, and collection recovery.

Unique's Automated Borrower Renewal and Verified Borrower Registration are tools from Unique that simplify and automate the library card renewal and registration process for libraries. The system connects to your library's ILS and scans the patron database for patrons that have moved, and can automatically verify patron records for new card signups. Both processes are completely automated, saving both staff and patron time and effort.

"We're excited to connect with public library leaders and hear how they are serving their communities," said Rob Klaus ahead of the event. "PLA is a great opportunity to share ideas, learn from our peers, and explore ways libraries can continue improving access and service for their patrons."
