Innovative, founded in 1978 and headquartered in Emeryville, California, is a global provider of integrated library management and automation software. The company’s software is installed in various types of libraries including academic, public, consortia, school, medical and law.


“We have had a very positive experience of the business environment in Ireland since we first set up our EMEA headquarters in Dublin in 2012,” said Kim Massana, Innovative’s CEO.  “Dublin has a rich talent pool and we have been able to recruit an exceptionally skilled and multi-lingual staff to serve our customers throughout Europe – our current staff of 25 is fluent in 15 languages.  This is a real advantage to a global company like Innovative that serves libraries in more than 60 countries.”  



Innovative offers the broadest and most complete portfolio of library automation products on the market today. Innovative's flagship library services platform, Sierra, is the most rapidly adopted product in library automation history.  Headquartered in Emeryville, California, Innovative serves thousands of libraries in over 60 countries and has offices around the world.
