(19 April 2017) The Joint University Librarians Advisory Committee (JULAC) is implementing a new shared integrated library system (ILS) to manage the print and electronic collections of 8 individual university libraries, with increasing strategic emphasis on electronic resources and digital collections. The shared system will hold a conglomerate of over 18 million bibliographic records serving over 380,000 users. The new system, which will be supported by Alma and Primo from Ex Libris on the cloud platform, is scheduled to “Go Live” in the second half of 2017.
A description of the system, new features,workflow, collaboration and more, is here.
