We are looking at purchasing one of these automation systems. Currently we use Winnebago Spectrum. There are two libraries in our district, with about 12,000 materials each. We are now at the point where the superintendent is ready to go to the board and ask them to spend the money. He would like us to be able to show the board a comparison between the prices and key functions of each system. Although we can compare prices, yearly update/tech support costs, etc., we could use some input from LM_NET users who are familiar with Alexandria, Dynix, and/or Destiny. We use AR and also Lexiles. There are a K-6 and 7-12 libraries, and both are staffed by librarians who have earned an MLS. As I mentioned earlier, we currently use Spectrum. We are especially interested in the issues that affect ease of use or the ability to 'do more' for students/patrons and for us. Jenni Davidson jdavidson@solomon393.k12.ks.us Elementary Librarian/H.S.
