Members of this list may be interested in the below (with apologies for 
cross-posting).

Following the huge success of our Alma Roadshow last year, we have 
decided to celebrate Alma going live by taking to the road again. This 
year, we are bringing Roger Brisson 
(http://www.bu.edu/library/profile/brisson-roger  ), Head of Metadata 
and Cataloging at Boston University Libraries 
(http://tinyurl.com/nyjpyt6  ), along with us. Alma went live at Boston 
University in November 2012, replacing their Innovative Interfaces 
Millennium library system: Roger will show you Alma live in action, give 
you information about their Alma project and be on hand to answer any 
questions you may have.

Come and join us either in London (Tuesday 27th August) or Leeds 
(Wednesday 28th August), or Stirling (Friday 30th August)!

Selected by over 160 institutions worldwide and live for over a year, 
Alma represents the future of libraries. Offering unified resource 
management, Alma streamlines your workflows, thus making your library 
more efficient. The in-built analytics enable you to make better 
informed decisions which in turn save you time and money. As a 
cloud-based solution, you not only save money on hardware but also time 
which used to be spent on performing updates. Even the implementation is 
quick and easy, with the majority of the work being performed for you by 
Ex Libris.

For more information about the content of these days, please see the 
agenda below. We very much hope you will be able to join us!
