We are researching possibilities for a mobile version of our III catalog and
are wondering what success people have had.
Right now our list of possible solutions include:
- AirPac from III - does anyone have any feedback on this product?
- MobileCat from the Tri-College Libraries
I've been pretty happy with the results we were able to get with a home-grown
