## Overview

### Who Uses Lyra Library?

Diocesan and otherwise private or independent school libraries.

## About the vendor

- **Company**: Lyra Library

## Commercial Context

- **Starting Price**: US$635.00
- **Pricing model**: Flat Rate (Free Trial)
- **Pricing Details**: Lyra is priced as a simple annual subscription per school, sized to your library rather than your headcount. Instead of charging per staff seat or per module, plans scale with the number of patrons your library serves — so a small parish school and a large independent school each pay for what fits, and adding staff accounts never costs extra.

Every plan includes every feature. Cataloging, circulation, holds, the student catalog (OPAC), roster sync, and the Vega AI assistant all come standard at every tier. There are no add-ons, no per-feature upcharges, and no premium modules to unlock — the only thing that changes between tiers is patron capacity.

You can try Lyra free for 30 days with your own catalog and patrons — no credit card, no demo call, no sales pitch. Migration is self-serve and included: import your existing catalog file (MARC) or a spreadsheet, connect your roster, and run Lyra side-by-side with your current system during the trial. You can export your data at any time, so there's no lock-in.

Early adopters can lock in founding-customer pricing for their initial term. Specific tiers and current pricing are listed alongside this overview.
