Hi Safranim, I just received a very helpful email from Marsha Goldwasser, Librarian of Anshe Emeth in New Brunswick, NJ. Her comments follow. (I've also updated the wiki page on synagogue automation to reflect this new info. Please keep your comments coming if you have any other programs to share.) Joyce
*I am currently using two programs that are not on the wiki list. At work I use Surpass. I actually use Surpass CL. The CL is the "Church Library" edition designed for small houses of worship. It is cheaper than the full version, but you can still purchase their online hosting service.* *A great option for very small libraries who do not need to use an electronic circulation system is LibraryThing.com. There is a small $25 fee to provide "lifetime" usage of the website. I tweaked it for my home synagogue's library so that I use the comments section for the Weine numbers as explained on the "cover" page for the library. Circulation is small enough that we still use cards and provide pre-printed family stickers for Shabbat circulation. If you go herehttps://www.librarything.com/profile/HPCT-CAE <https://www.librarything.com/profile/HPCT-CAE>, you will notice on the right hand side that a lot of synagogues are using the site.* On Mon, Dec 15, 2014 at 4:55 PM, Chaya Wiesman <[email protected]> wrote: > > Dear Safranim, > > > > Someone called me last night and asked me if I knew of a cataloging > program for a tiny (500? books) that was free, could print barcodes and > help with circulation. > > > > Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. > > > > *Chaya Wiesman* > > Chaya Wiesman > > Librarian > > Ramaz Upper School Library > > 60 E. 78th Street > > New York, NY 10075 > > (212)774-8000 x7329 > > > > __ > Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual > author > and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries > (AJL) > ================================== > Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: > [email protected] > To join Ha-Safran, update or change your subscription, etc. - click here: > https://lists.service.ohio-state.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran > Questions, problems, complaints, compliments send to: [email protected] > Ha-Safran Archives: > Current: > > http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.service.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html > Earlier Listserver: > > http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html > AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org > -- > Hasafran mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.osu.edu/mailman/listinfo/hasafran > > -- *Joyce Levine * Director of Library and Media Services North Shore Hebrew Academy High School <http://www.nshahs.org> 400 North Service Road Great Neck, NY 11020 Publications Chair Association of Jewish Libraries <http://www.jewishlibraries.org> <[email protected]>
