Bess, I will point the folks there at OSS and the eIFL site. What's the best first step for them to take? Is there anyone nearby that they can talk to? Is there a way to take training to them? I'll be trying to assess their technical expertise while I'm there, which will give us more of an idea

This is ironic given that their API is standards based. http://www.serialssolutions.com/ss_360_link_features.html What, exactly, are vendors worried about when they hide their API behind an NDA? Even more disturbing, why bother advertising your API at all if a community can't be built to create

I find an API that you aren't allowed to share client code for to be pretty much useless. If I'm a part of any evaluation committees evaluating software purchases, I will certainly make that opinion known and justify why I think it's justified. My institution is not currently a SerSol customer
