Lee, We chose Koha before we developed our RFP for vendors. If anyone wants a fresh copy of the questions, I can email it.

It is has been the longest winter for us that I can remember. Anyway, I am working on a white paper about equitable RFP and RFI (request for proposals or request for information) that are vendor neutral and gives FOSS library ware equal footing in the bidding process. In addition I have been contacted by the Montana Library Consortium (who currently uses Sirisi) to consult on their RFI for the shared catalog ILS for the same reason. Many of you who were at KohaCon 9 in TX. will remember the Montana State Library representative who attended(Mike Price) and he was less than kind in his reporting back to the state library. I have found RFP templates that I am currently modifying to create a format that is unbiased for FOSS and proprietary products. SO....if you have recently gone out for an RFP for your ILS and have information that I can incorporate into this white paper (and pass on the the Montana Shared Catalog) I would be grateful. Of course time is of the essence, so please send me what you have or point me to info that would be important to consider. Thank you for your time, as always it is a privilege and a pleasure to be part of the Koha Community. Sincerely Lee Phillips Director Butte Silver Bow Public Library Butte, Montana _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org [email protected] http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org [email protected] http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
