PINES Today 44 member public library systems 252 libraries in 123 counties 8.5 million library books and other items 1.6 million active cardholders Over 17 million items checked out in FY06

The Evergreen Project Evergreen Integrated Library System (ILS) was developed using Open Source software. Software development began in June 2004 All PINES libraries migrated to Evergreen software on September 5, All bibliographic and patron records were migrated from the former system.

D-Day September 5 th, 2006

What we did right We included library staff in the software development process –This gave them a sense of pride and ownership We performed multiple migration dry- runs. –Library staff participated in the dry-runs.

What we did right We sent our patron data to a vendor for clean-up and formatting –It was a big task off our plate –Vendor has experience with the… idiosyncrasies… of our data

Hindsight is 20/20 On D-Day, when we needed to be sharpest, we were all exhausted and had hardly slept The GPLS Helpdesk Manager’s position was vacant on D-Day

Hindsight is 20/20 In order to troubleshoot certain issues, we had to increase logging to debug levels on production. We didn’t train library staff with real, live data –We used a “demo” system with fake demo data

Hindsight is 20/20 We didn’t anticipate an immediate and significant increase in usage –For example, holds increased 30% There is simply no good way to coordinate 252 libraries

What’s next?

Well, besides that…

Georgia Systems PINES Systems

Where Do We Go from Here? Develop Acquisitions and Serials module Work on OpenNCIP, so Evergreen can communicate with other ILS’s. Develop a children's web-based catalog Credit Card payment via catalog

Where Do We Go from Here? More integration with GALILEO Online library catalog that can be used on mobile devices Patron reviews and ratings
