We believe in libraries.  We get libraries.

Hosting Solutions & Library Consulting (HSLC) believes strong libraries make strong communities.  We are driven by our mission to contribute to the success of libraries by delivering sound technical solutions and expansive consulting services.

As a nonprofit, we understand your mission and the unique challenges libraries face.  Our team of library and technology professionals works to strengthen your library using proven evaluation and assessment methods and cutting-edge technology solutions, along with recommendations based on current national trends and best practices. 

What we can do for you.

Hosting Solutions & Library Consulting (HSLC) can help you maximize your current assets and invest in change that will launch your library into the future.   Our consulting projects come in all sizes for all library types.  Every consulting service we provide is uniquely designed to fit your library’s needs no matter the scope of the project.

At the Library of Accessible Media for Pennsylvanians, we have been using HSLC for our domain hosting for the past few years and have been very happy and impressed with the service. HSLC’s customer support is excellent and they are always available and responsive with finding solutions to any problems.  Additionally, HSLC provides a secure environment for our developers to access the domain space and that allows MyLAMP.org to remain current.   HSLC is a reliable, secure and personable domain hosting provider.
