Feedback from Honorees
​

"Beyond receiving our prestigious award from this esteemed organization, the feedback that we receive from practicing educators who are part of the judging committee, let us know, first-hand, that our products answer their call. Comments received allow us to tailor our marketing messages to highlight aspects of our products that people find most beneficial. Aside from the thrill of receiving an award from an organization of this caliber, the criteria of how a company is awarded has deeper meaning as it is accompanied with useful feedback derived from experienced practitioners."

Troy Mikell | Director of Marketing & Communications | Mackin

Andy Clutter | Director of Sales & Marketing | SenSource

Murray L. Dennis, Chairman | Scannx, Inc.

 

"We took part in the modern awards last year by LibraryWorks and received Product of the Year. Our company was elated over the results. We knew we had an outstanding product, but being a small company it is sometimes hard to be recognized. With the opportunity of having our application being judged by users, it provided credibility. This has led to not only greater market exposure, but greater revenue."

Sean Young, General Manager North America | Talkingtech

 

"We are honored to know that our commitment to our customers, the librarians who are at the forefront of everything we do, scored our solutions and service so highly.

"AGATI Furniture was honored to be awarded with a Gold certification in last year's MLA awards. Having the LibraryWorks group come by the booth was exciting, and the award itself became a focal talking point for the entire ALA Midwinter weekend. It was a spectacular way to engage with our audience in the library world, and we're looking forward to this year's events!"

Lizzie Hoffman, Marketing & Promotions Coordinator | AGATI Furniture

 

"There are very few, if any, award programs that recognize scanning hardware for library use. For the end user, the Modern Library Awards are a helpful stamp of approval. For the manufacturer and vendor, the MLAs are a validation of quality product. It's always better when someone else gives your product a glowing review, isn't it? Crowley's gold and silver awards last year helped to open the doors of discussion at trade shows, on social media and with the press. One year later, we still get mileage out of the Modern Library Awards."

Cheri Baker, Director of Communications | Crowley

Daniel Griffin, Vice President | Userful

John McKamely, Business Development Manager | Data2 Corporation

We look forward to entering again in 2016."

Jonathan Mansfield, Head of Marketing and Communications | Adam Matthew Digital
