DS, the UK’s leading public library management system supplier, has
reached agreement on a merger with Axiell Library Group AB. With immediate
effect DS becomes part of the Axiell Library Group family of companies.
The collaborative development agreement between Axiell and DS has been
exceptionally fruitful, resulting in the development of Axiell Arena/DS
Arena, the product which harnesses the power of social networking for
libraries and local government. This cooperation has demonstrated how
much stronger and more effective DS and Axiell would be as part of the
same “family”. We have therefore agreed to formalise this collaboration by
incorporating DS into Axiell Library Group AB. The shared development
capability of DS and the rest of the Axiell Library Group will lead to
faster and more advanced innovation for the benefit of customers and end-
users in the UK and the Nordic countries alike.
DS will continue to operate from its sites in Poole and Nottingham. Nigel
Pegg remains as Managing Director of DS leading unchanged management and
staff teams.
