[LM_NET] TARGET: Sirsi Dynix

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@GMAIL.COM>]

Our regional libraries are looking at different (pre-selected) vendors
for a possible union catalog system for several libraries.  We had the
opportunity to look at Sirsi Dynix yesterday and I was wondering if
anyone had any comments (positive or negative) about the program?
What problems did you face with the migration from one system to this
one (many of us are on Athena), what are some of the unexpected
surprises (both good and bad), how are your students using the system,
what comments do they have?

Any suggestions, comments or opinions would be appreciated.  I will
share them with our group as we continue marching through this
process.

Thanks!
