“…Banerjee and Middleton reported that when library staff owned the migration process, fewer mistakes and greater satisfaction with the new system, as well as quicker troubleshooting of problems that did arise as a result of the migration, were observed. 14 Avery shared that the God's Bible College Libraries did an informal pre-and post-assessment of library users and staff to gather feedbacks on both legacy and target ILS. He recommended conducting a formalized pre-and post-evaluation of user satisfaction with the ILS.…”

This case study examines the decision-making process of library leaders and administrators in the selection, procurement, and implementation of Ex Libris Alma/Primo as their library services platform (LSP). The authors conducted a survey of libraries and library consortia in Canada and the United States who have implemented or plan to implement Alma. The results show that most libraries use both request for information (RFI) and request for proposal (RFP) in their system selection process, but the vendor-offered training is insufficient for effective operation. One-third of the libraries surveyed are considering switching to open-source options for their next automation system. These insights can benefit libraries and library consortia in improving their technological readiness and decision-making processes.

“…The risks and activities in advance should be considered during migration planning (Jones, 2014).Bryan (2009) discussed the setup of a development environment, logical data models, data manipulation, data transformation and the loading process involved during migration. Several studies and research (Banerjee and Middleton, 2001; Bavousett, 2013; Breeding, 2013; Cervone, 2007; Lawrence and Weber, 2008; Matoria and Upadhyay, 2005; Stump and Torgerson, 2008; Zhu, 2004; Zhu and Spidal, 2015) were carried out by various researchers and library technicians concerning project planning, the need for consultation and general system implementation of data migration. These migrations were all based on command-based library systems, graphical, client–server, Web-based, even cloud-based ILS migration.…”

Purpose This paper aims to outline the migration of outdated computerized documentation system/integrated set for information systems (CDS/ISIS) database in to fully functional Web-based Automatización de Bibliotecas y Centros de Documentación (ABCD) integrated library system (ILS), which is derived from the the United Nations educational, scientific and cultural organization (UNESCO) CDS/ISIS software technology. Design/methodology/approach The existing integrated set for information systems (ISIS) tags were needed to be remapped as per the tag of MARC-like or structured bibliographic format database by editing integrated set for information systems print formats. Moreover, a sequence of tasks was required to complete the whole process. The major procedures were accomplished as exporting ISIS data into .iso format, creating ABCD database and uploading .iso file into the new database. The next part was configuration and connection with the Web interface after editing PFT. Findings CDS/ISIS users who have data in the international organization for standardization format on old versions of CDS/ISIS software applications now have the opportunity to migrate their data into the new application. The detailed process had been outlined not an only successful method of migrating outdated valuable records, also creation of ABCD database. Originality/value This paper may help the users of CDS/ISIS or WinISIS to migrate for ABCD and not to expire or give up their valuable data. This is one of the best ways to migrate ISIS data to ABCD with proven functionality. A specific aim of Automatización de Bibliotecas y Centros de Documentación Integrated Library System is to offer a tool for librarians, rather than information communications technology technicians, which is achieved by taking library and information science principles.
