A library website patrons can use and staff can manage.
Most library websites are hard to use and even harder to manage. LocalHop fixes both, without requiring a developer after launch.
See it for your libraryLocalHop builds to WCAG 2.1 AA from the first line of code. Semantic markup, ARIA attributes, and keyboard navigation are included in every site — not patched in after the fact.
Clean navigation, mobile-responsive layout, and an intuitive structure mean people find programs, hours, and services without calling the desk.
The CMS is built for library staff, not developers. Add events, update hours, and swap page content without a support request. 30+ pre-built content blocks mean pages never start from scratch.
Your website should work as hard as your staff does.
Most website platforms weren't built with libraries in mind. They don't account for patron accessibility requirements, staff independence from developers, or connection to your other library tools. LocalHop builds around all three.
WCAG 2.1 AA compliance isn't retrofitted after launch. Semantic markup, ARIA attributes, and keyboard navigation are built into every page from the first line of code.
Adding a page, updating hours, or publishing a new program never requires a developer or a support ticket. The CMS is built for staff independence — from day one.
Room reservations, community calendars, and activity passes connect directly into your website without custom integration. One system. One login. No manual syncing.
What changes when the website works.
One update in the CMS reaches every patron immediately. No ticket. No bottleneck. No stale content waiting on a developer.
WCAG 2.1 AA compliance means screen readers, keyboard navigation, and assistive devices all work. The library's digital front door is open to every patron — regardless of how they access the web.
Outdated hosting, unpatched systems, and compliance gaps are managed by the same team that built the site. Your library isn't left holding the maintenance burden after launch.
Programs from your community calendar, room reservations, and activity passes all appear on your site automatically. No duplication, no manual syncing, no version drift.
The process is as good as the product.
"When you think of a website redesign, long and painful are usually the first thoughts — until you work with LocalHop."
"Our new website is clean and responsive, our users love it, and we love how painless the entire project was."
Built accessible. Handed off to staff. Done.
What began as a website redesign quickly became something more urgent. Washington District Library needed full ADA compliance, a Google Workspace migration with zero service disruption, and a CMS their staff could manage independently — without filing a support ticket every time the homepage needed an update.
LocalHop built a fully accessible WordPress site — semantic markup, ARIA attributes, and WCAG 2.1 AA compliance built in from the start, not added after. Google Workspace migration was completed without disrupting a single day of library operations. Staff took over content management from launch.
Long-term infrastructure risk eliminated. Staff manage the site without developer dependency. Every patron — regardless of ability — can access WDL's digital presence equally.
