We're looking at the possibility of moving to an open source cataloguing
program, however we're having some serious difficulties getting our data out
of our existing software (Softlink's Alice program). Has anyone managed to
successfully migrate from Alice to another MARC based system? If so, I
would be really grateful to speak/email with you. Ideally, we're hoping to
move to Evergreen, but this might be too optimistic!
Many thanks,
Jennifer Kelly
