The free MackinVIA digital content management platform is recognized and awarded their highest honor giving Mackin their fourth consecutive award with MLA.
Burnsville, MN, January 11, 2020 --(PR.com)-- Mackin, a leading provider of print and digital fiction and non-fiction books for K-12, is pleased to announce it has received a Platinum Award in LibraryWorks’ sixth annual Modern Library Awards (MLAs.) The MLAs were created to recognize the top products and services in the library industry.
Products and services were submitted in the fall using a simple application, and then were posted on a private site with an enhanced description and attendant materials. These products were batched into small groups and sent to the LibraryWorks database of more than 80,000 librarians at public, K-12, academic, and special libraries. Only customers with experience with these products/services in their facilities were permitted to judge the products/services, resulting in a truly unbiased score.
Each judge scored the product on a numeric basis from 1-10 on a series of questions regarding functionality, value, customer service, etc. MackinVIA received a remarkable score of 9.4, resulting in their third Platinum Award from this prestigious organization.
“Since its inception, MackinVIA has made large strides and has continued its technological growth to remain one of the world’s top choices for digital content management. As a company, Mackin has always been known for their ingenuity and superior customer service. It’s no surprise that these efforts helped MackinVIA to be recognized and validated again,” remarked Troy Mikell, Director of Marketing and Communications for Mackin.
