ALP has made great use of standard PowerPAC design elements to engage their patrons including custom dashboard web parts and content carousels.

Like many Polaris libraries, the Ames catalog features a few content carousels based on booklists compiled manually by library staff. Ames has done something unique. They’ve put a mechanism in place which creates a booklist automatically. The list (and therefore the content carousel) updates dynamically as items are added to and removed from a specific shelf location (“staff picks”).
Baltimore County’s catalog represents a very high level of careful customization. The layout has been modified to include a custom header and footer. The navigation mechanism in the header offers the same effective “drop down” behavior they employ on the BCPL home page.
Maricopa County not only uses PowerPAC as their library website, but they’ve populated the site with some great content.
The MDPLS PowerPAC features a custom header and footer consistent with the overall library web presence. The menu navigation in PowerPAC includes a very clever interactive search prompt built right into the header so the option to start a different search is always available to the user.
