[LM_NET] TECH: Destiny issues

[Ann Jantzen <JantzenA@SOUTH.SHCSC.K12.IN.US>]

We are in a school corporation with 7 buildings and only 3 certified
LMSs.  Other buildings are staffed completely by aides. We currently
have Follett Circ/Cat+ in all buildings but not fully utilized in some
buildings.
We know that at some point we will need to move to Destiny (or other
product) and we know the reasons why.  Our concern is the how.

Do any of you have experience with a similar situation?
It is my understanding that with Destiny we would have a union catalog
for the corporation.   How would that be handled initially and ongoing
in this situation?
Would it be a nightmare having incomplete or incorrect records added? 
 Is one LMS given admin. rights over the union catalog?
 We have no one at the corporation level with an MLS.

Any ideas would be appreciated.  We are just beginning to gather
information and address potential problems.

THANKS.
