FREE! Informational SirsiDynix Symphony ILS Program - Woodbridge Public Library, 9:15-3pm
An information (NOT sales pitch!) presentation about SirsiDynix’s Symphony ILS, including migration options, a company update, and a Q. and A. session, will be held at the Woodbridge Public Library. It is an all day session (9:15 a.m.-3 p.m.) which is free and open to all who are interested in attending.
Background:
On October 1, 2007, a group of SirsiDynix customers met at the Springfield Public Library to discuss their experiences with SirsiDynix and to share information about their future automation plans. Susan Permahos of the Springfield Public Library organized this meeting and chaired the discussion, which was very lively and informative.
At meeting’s end, the consensus was to have a follow-up session in the Spring of 2008 with Scott McCausland and Kate Howe from SirsiDynix, who would be asked to do an informational presentation about Symphony, discuss migration options, and provide company update information, followed by a Q&A session. This follow-up meeting is now scheduled for Friday, April 18, 2008 from 9:15 a.m.-3 p.m. at the Woodbridge Public Library (http://www.woodbridge.lib.nj.us).
The agenda is as follows:
In the a.m.:
• Updates on Symphony 3.2, including a demo of current features that addresses the differences between Symphony and Horizon/Dynix
• Possible migration paths from Horizon, Dynix, and Unicorn
• Costs for various options, information on how quotes are derived
• Future plans
• Update from SuperConference
Lunch (provided by SirsiDynix)
In the p.m.:
• Q&A session
If you plan to attend, please RSVP on or before Friday, April 11 with your name, library or organization, phone number, and email address to:
