Description

LIBRARIAN® serves as a comprehensive library management software solution in India, designed to assist information providers, resource managers, and librarians in efficiently managing and distributing diverse information sources. The cataloging feature adheres to AACR2 standards, ensuring that the produced cards are consistent and accurate, available in the standard size of 5" x 3". Users have the flexibility to print on cards or use A4 Laser Sheets, while the user-friendly interface is tailored for quick access and ease of use for everyone. The software supports the cataloging of a wide range of materials, including books, CDs, journals, magazines, annual reports, project reports, presentations, PDF files, and more. Additionally, users can customize their data entry by incorporating up to 20 different fields for each new resource. A standout feature of this software is the Z39.50 Import capability, which allows libraries to search and import records from various Z39.50 compliant libraries worldwide, thus broadening the resources they can access. This integration enhances the overall efficiency and effectiveness of library management practices.

Description

The OPALS Open-source Automated Library System is a robust, collaboratively designed web-based program that stands out as an effective open-source solution. This innovative technology allows users to access various information databases, library collections, and digital archives via the Internet. Numerous institutions, including schools, colleges, research centers, businesses, religious organizations, and library consortia that offer interlibrary loan services, utilize OPALS. Implementing this comprehensive, turnkey system does not require the installation of software or the acquisition of costly computer hardware or licenses. Its “total cost of ownership” is not only sustainable but also exemplifies the benefits of utilizing standards-based, feature-rich web software. OPALS can be hosted and managed on our servers, or we can collaborate with your IT department to facilitate the installation and ongoing support at your location. With a dedicated team of experienced programmers and technical support personnel, the program is continuously updated and maintained, providing a reliable support network that is crucial for public-serving institutions. This versatility in deployment and the strength of community support further enhance OPALS's reputation as an essential resource for libraries and educational organizations alike.
