Traverse des Sioux Library System (MN) launches MessageBee SMS notifications

The 69-location consortium adds 10-DLC compliant SMS notifications system-wide to keep their patrons up to date on their transactions.

Unique Library is proud to announce the addition of MessageBee SMS notifications for the Traverse des Sioux Library System (TdS) consortium this week. Patrons will receive native notifications from the library via SMS notifications, creating a new channel for their patrons.

TdS is the latest consortium to join Unique, serving nine counties across southern Minnesota. The consortium is comprised of public, school, and special/academic libraries and are starting their first ever service with Unique.

MessageBee is a powerful and customizable messaging tool that offers numerous features, making it an essential asset for libraries looking to enhance their communication strategies. Easily understandable SMS notifications made MessageBee a great choice for TdS.

Key features of MessageBee include:

  • SaaS Email and SMS service: Our SMS and email notifications require no library-based equipment. We handle the back end, so libraries can focus on their patrons.
  • Superior Deliverability: Unique is on the cutting edge of SMS-based notifications. Our 10-DLC compliant notifications are an upgrade on traditional email-to-SMS in deliverability and clarity.
