Presentation

Decalog Software a l'ambition de faciliter le quotidien de ses clients bibliothécaires en leur proposant des solutions numériques innovantes : Système Intégré de Gestion de Bibliothèques, portails web, système de gestion d'Espaces Publics Numériques, automates de prêt…

Ces solutions sont élaborées pour et avec nos utilisateurs dans une démarche de co-construction, l'objectif étant de garantir une parfaite adéquation aux besoins.

Avec 30 ans d'expériences sur le secteur des bibliothèques de lecture publique et des centres de documentation, Decalog compte 2300 établissements équipés et plus de 10 000 utilisateurs professionnels, en France et à l'international.

Chez Decalog, nous partageons la conviction que chacun et chaque organisation peut et doit faire évoluer son fonctionnement pour lutter contre le dérèglement climatique et la chute de la biodiversité. Nous avons conscience du chemin à parcourir et essayons chaque jour de progresser. Notre volonté d'améliorer notre responsabilité numérique s'inscrit dans cet objectif.
