Waukegan Public Library launched a new website, increased engagement from patrons, and streamlined workflows among staff.
Waukegan Public Library (WPL), a two-branch library in Illinois, USA, launched its new Mugo Library website in the fall of 2025. The website is integrated with the Polaris ILS and Communico's Attend and Reserve systems to provide seamless access for patrons. Other native Mugo Web features include:
The new website is fully responsive and accessible, making WPL conformant to WCAG 2.1 AA standards ahead of new ADA regulations for US libraries.
When creating content in Ibexa using the RichText Editor, it is easy to realize that not every RichText field needs the same toolbar. A ”Body” field may need headings, embeds, and tables. A ”Short Description” or ”Caption” field usually needs bold, italic, and little else. When every field gets the full CKEditor toolbar, it might make editors waste time or even make them think they can add markup your templates were never built for.
Legacy eZ Publish solved this. Ibexa DXP does not, at least out of the box. In this blog post we describe how we added this feature to Ibexa 4.
Welcome to Mugo Web's new monthly digest, a quick way to catch up with some of the things we've been working on. In July we marked a momentous anniversary, launched a brand new site for a client, and offered free educational opportunities.
A new update to the Mugo Page Bundle now allows for a straightforward migration from eZ Flow to Ibexa DXP. We’ve also added functionality to this versatile tool with a new rich text block type.

St. Thomas Public Library launches new website with expanded features.
The latest improvements to the Mugo Library platform focus on enhanced usability for library staff. Since these back-end improvements aren’t as noticeable as the front-end user experience, we wanted to take the opportunity to give a peek “under the hood”, and showcase what makes the Mugo Library event and calendar solution ideal for public libraries. Our new enhancements include expanded reporting, a new viewing interface, back-end patron search, and integration with the meeting room module.
One of our clients needed to migrate all their customers to another entitlement service, requiring them to create new Single Sign-On (SSO) accounts. Concerned that many customers might struggle with the SSO setup process and overwhelm the customer support team, Mugo designed a "graduated authentication" system that dynamically balanced temporary free access with required account creation, allowing our client to manage customer support workload in real time. Instead of forcing all customers to the SSO setup at once, a smooth transition was implemented, providing immediate support for anyone who needed it.
Responsive images are a cornerstone of modern web design. They enable websites to deliver optimized visuals that adapt seamlessly to a wide range of devices, screen sizes, and resolutions. By serving appropriately sized images based on the user’s device capabilities, responsive images ensure fast load times, reduced bandwidth usage, and a consistent visual experience.
Recently, we added a new feature to the Mugo Library all-in-one CMS solution for library websites to make it easier for patrons to search for their event registrations. This enhancement makes providing quality customer service in libraries easier and puts more control in the hands of patrons.
