Un bon article sobre sistema compartit

Les biblioteques del consorci ORBIS Cascade, dels estats d’Oregon i Washington dels EUA, han acabat un procés de migració a un sistema compartit molt similar al nostre.
Trobareu descrit el procés a l’article "Selecting a Shared 21st Century Management System", de la revista Collaborative Librarianship Vol 5, No 1 (2013) http://collaborativelibrarianship.org/index.php/jocl/article/view/232/180
Abstract: This paper describes the factors that led the Orbis Cascade Alliance, a 37 institution academic library consortium in the Pacific Northwest, to move to a shared library management system. The steps that the Alliance and its 37 member libraries took over a period of years are summarized, including the work of several research and planning groups and a formal Request for Information process. A subsequent Request for Proposal (RFP) process ended in the selection of Ex Libris Alma management system and Primo discovery services for Alliance libraries. The paper also describes the Alliance s vision for the shared library management system, including collaborative technical services and cooperative collection development.
