YakPac Kids’ OPAC

YakPac offers a unique kids' interface to both a library’s catalog and the web. Use YakPac with library catalogs, commercial databases, and federated search systems. YakPac is based on research investigating how today's computer-savvy youth use the Internet. The result is an elegantly simple search interface that achieves fun and functionality beyond any other kids OPAC available. YakPac has integrated, safe chat because studies find that kids are more likely to interact with peers to find information than use a standard library catalog. YakPac’s animated links make exploring the OPAC fun.

YakPac integrates completely with Koha ILS.

Quick Facts about YakPac:

• Fun, easy-to-use kids' interface
• Relevant searching of the library catalog
• Integrated web searching from safe sources
• Safe kids only chat environment
• Gives kids ability for organization and self-expression with book shelf and review options
