This is also the first digital library card in public libraries in the country. The digital card is part of the digital journey of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur municipality and is linked to the cooperation of municipalities in digital development.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Everyone can upgrade to a digital certificate on their next visit. <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Library has been working closely with the libraries in K\u00f3pavogur and Gar\u00f0ab\u00e6r in recent years, and they will follow suit and introduce digital library cards of their own in the coming months. The start-up company SmartSolutions developed the solution. Anyone with a plastic library card today can upgrade to a digital one on their next visit to the library. This means no one will have to worry about forgetting their card, provided they have their phone with them. New borrowers can, of course, get a digital card straight away. Many people already have a digital driving licence on their phone, and digital cards will undoubtedly become much more common in the coming years.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_7607-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_7607\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2048px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2048\/1536;\" \/>\n<p><sup>Gu\u00f0bj\u00f6rg Oddn\u00fd J\u00f3nasd\u00f3ttir, forma\u00f0ur menningar- og fer\u00f0am\u00e1lanefndar, f\u00e9kk fyrsta stafr\u00e6na b\u00f3kasafnssk\u00edrteini\u00f0 afhent fr\u00e1 Sigr\u00fanu Gu\u00f0nad\u00f3ttur forst\u00f6\u00f0umanni\u00a0 B\u00f3kasafns Hafnarfjar\u00f0ar \u00ed morgun.

On the new website, access to information about the library's services has been greatly improved. All content on the website has been completely redesigned from the ground up, and the site is now available in four languages. School groups can book visits on the website, and it is also possible to book a time in the Rabbr\u00fdmi to record podcast episodes. The new website is another product based on Vitanum, the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's design system, which enables the municipality to accelerate its digital development and carry out such projects more cost-effectively and quickly than before. The website was a collaboration between the museum's staff, the city's web team and students from the University of Iceland's web media course. The design was created by Metall Design Studio, while the programming and implementation were handled by Avista, and the requirements analysis was led by K\u00f3ral.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201eWe are extremely pleased to have reached this milestone and we are convinced that a large number of borrowers will welcome this new feature, as it is very convenient to have a certificate on your phone. In recent quarters, we have striven to improve the service at the library with various innovations in our operations, and the library is bustling with activity from morning until night. That's how we want it. The library's new website is also of great importance for improving the library's information provision and service in the years to come,\u201c,<\/em> says Sigr\u00fan Gu\u00f0nad\u00f3ttir, director of the Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Library.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00cd dag ur\u00f0u t\u00edmam\u00f3t \u00ed s\u00f6gu B\u00f3kasafns Hafnarfjar\u00f0ar \u00feegar fyrsta stafr\u00e6na b\u00f3kasafnssk\u00edrteini\u00f0 var afhent. \u00deetta er jafnframt fyrst stafr\u00e6na b\u00f3kasafnssk\u00edrteini \u00ed almenningsb\u00f3kas\u00f6fnum h\u00e9r \u00e1 landi.
