Let’s Fill Those Seats
Want to increase attendance at your library’s programs and events? Let everyone in your community know what you have to offer. With SignUp, you can easily promote events for patrons to discover, register for, and attend — without adding to your librarians’ workloads.
Pique Your Community’s Interest
In addition to seeing information about the events you choose to promote in your physical library or online, people can seek out programs they’re interested in with SignUp’s easy-to-use search and filter functionality.
Make Sign-Up Easy
With convenient online registration, people can quickly and easily sign up and pay for events at any time and from anywhere. It’s especially convenient for registrants using mobile devices.
Put Promotion in Your Patrons’ Hands
Registrants can quickly add library events to their personal calendars, request reminders, and receive notifications for upcoming events. They can also share events on social media, spreading the word to their friends and followers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can my library use SignUp to send event reminders to registrants via text message?
Yes! When patrons register for an event, they’ll have the option to choose whether they’d like to receive event reminders via email or text message — they’ll also get to select how many days prior to the event they’d like to receive that reminder message. Patrons can opt out of receiving future event reminders at any time. If desired, your SignUp administrators can turn off the reminder option altogether.
Can I use SignUp to limit early bird event registration to library card holders only?
Yes! Enabling authentication when you create a new event will require registrants to input library card details when registering. This will allow you to limit initial registration to cardholders only. Then, when you’re ready to open up registration to the masses, you can simply disable authentication for that event, which will remove card-related fields from the registration form going forward.
