Friends-of-the-library volunteers track everything on paper that only one person can read.
Use case
Library and literacy events, run from one dashboard.
Run the event site, table fees and event passes, applications from vendors and volunteers, booth assignments, and event-day check-in for library book sales, literacy fairs, and author nights from one connected dashboard.
Who it's for
Library book sales, literacy fairs, and author nights.
Instead of sending attendees, vendors, sponsors, and staff through separate tools, every workflow stays attached to the same event record - so nothing falls through the cracks between your form tool, your ticket link, and your spreadsheet.
- Publish a branded event site
- Sell table fees and event passes
- Collect applications from vendors and volunteers
- Assign booths on the floor-plan map
- Run QR check-in at the door
The old way
What usually goes wrong.
Vendors and volunteers apply in one tool while payments happen in another.
Booth assignments get redrawn in a spreadsheet nobody else can see.
Event-day staff work from printed lists that were stale before doors opened.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can vendors and volunteers apply and pay online?
Yes. Vendors and volunteers fill out a structured application with your custom questions, and once approved they can pay booth or table fees through Stripe checkout - or you can record manual payments like cash and checks.
Does VendlyNest sell table fees and event passes too?
Yes - tickets, booths, sponsor packages, and add-ons all live in one commerce layer with capacity limits, sold-out protection, receipts, and QR passes.
Do we need a separate website builder?
No. Every event gets a multi-page microsite with themes, drag-and-drop content blocks, vendor and guest directories, and optional custom domains.
