We too are looking at moving from Digital Editions to FileOpen for our electronic document delivery. We work in a very similar environment with direct delivery to users who may be using The PCs in our Learning Resources Centres or their own individual machines. We would be grateful for responses to Margaret's email be posted to the list Thanks Karen Allen ******************************************************************************* Knowledge Consultant (Information Management) Information Hertfordshire Hatfield de Havilland Campus LRC University of Hertfordshire -----Original Message----- From: For interlibrary-loan and document supply services. [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Margaret Dillon Sent: 18 January 2010 10:06 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Introducing FileOpen Dear Colleagues We are looking at moving from SED to FileOpen for our electronic document delivery from the British Library. Reports so far suggest it is a superior product and overcomes the limitations of using Adobe Digital editions. As our documents are delivered directly to end users, lots using shared pcs, FileOpen would have to be rolled out across campus by our IT department. I don't yet know if they would be prepared to do this so would be very grateful to hear from any other institutions who have gone down this route. Has it been successful, what are the pitfalls, what are the advantages, is it stable, etc? Many thanks in advance for any information you have.
