Why Destiny Resource Manager?

  • Contemporary schools have more resources than ever before: Textbooks, band instruments, sports uniforms, technology, eContent, and more. It’s estimated that a single student can be responsible for thousands of dollars in assets, and audits show that a typical school district loses 18-25% of their resources every 2-3 years. That translates to significant losses in budget and wasted time for educators at every phase. 

    Follett Destiny® Resource Manager™, the number one product in K-12 resource management, streamlines inventory processes and ensures you’re able to buy what you need, share what you have, and re-purpose what remains.

    Make the most of Destiny Resource Manager: Turn information into insight with the Destiny Analytics add-on solution and leverage our comprehensive, helpful Follett Services including inventory and barcoding.

Ensure Accountability and Availability of All Learning Resources

Resource Management is about more than just textbooks: Everyone and everything is a resource. With Destiny, you can track and manage textbooks, tablets, STEM supplies, band/athletic equipment, and anything else. Tracking assets increases individual accountability, reducing loss and ensuring resources are being properly circulated.

Ultimately, Destiny allows you to ensure availability and manage all resource investment, allocation, and use — and get the right resources in the right hands at the right time for the right purpose.
