Welcome to the NExpress Shared Regional Catalog!

NExpress helps libraries of all types and sizes provide rapid and direct access to shared library resources through a technically advanced library automation system at a reduced cost, with training, technical support and software enhancements provided by NEKLS.

The NExpress service is a web-based automation service that features flexible searching, item availability status, and the ability for library users to directly place requests for items in the collection of any participating library, with delivery by courier to the patron’s local library.

NExpress uses the open source Koha integrated library system, with hosting and support through ByWater Solutions.

To contact the NExpress Team, please email nexpresshelp [at] nekls.org.
