Subject: Moving on from the UK Core Specification (for public
libraries): 18th June event at CILIP
Library systems for public
libraries: A new approach to specifying requirements: CILIP 18 June 10.30
REGISTER NOW. Go to https://libtechrfp.wikispaces.com/home
A meeting is being convened at
CILIP on 18th June (10.30 to 12.30 ) to look at potential ways forward
regarding a library system requirement . The UK Core Specification (UKCS) has
been a great success but is now out of date. The UKCS requirements no longer meet the needs of
public libraries or reflect the changes in the offerings from library system
vendors. The initiative will focus on the needs of *public* libraries at this
stage. The Gcloud arrangement for library management systems is up for renewal
in 2016 so this is a good time for a review. The best way forward is not
*necessarily* a new version of the UKCS -- the issues go wider.
The outline agenda is:
Background/Introduction/What
is the problem we need to solve?
Potential
solutions/approaches
Actions –what do
we need to do-and who will do it?
Very best
