Grove for Libraries, the premier provider of services for the open-source Aspen platform, is proud to announce that The North Olympic Library System (NOLS) has migrated to Grove for Libraries to host and support Aspen Discovery.

“We switched to Grove-hosted because we felt that the support model Grove offered better aligned with getting issues resolved and new development underway.”

- Erin Shield, Technical Services Manager

“NOLS has very high support standards, and we’re pleased that they’ve selected Grove as their Aspen provider. We look forward to supporting their team with reliable hosting, responsive service, and the flexibility they need to best serve their community.”

 - Jordan Fields, Grove Co-Founder
