Hi all, I am researching the transition from a commercial ILS system to an open source ILS system and have a couple questions:
1. What commercial system was PINES using prior to the Evergreen implementation? 2. Was the previous system supporting a consortia or did the consortia form after the Evergreen implementation? 3. If so, did each library maintain its own installation that talked to a central system or was the original commercial implementation completely centralized? (I have read about the 5 year contract expiring and wonder if each server at each institution was expiring at the same time or only one at a central location) Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much, Jami Miller Jami Miller Systems Librarian Franklin University Library/Phillips Hall 303 South Grant Avenue Columbus, OH 43215 614.947.6561
