library data from many other library automation
systems. We currently have a library of scripts
to convert twenty-five different library systems

collect the data from your old system and send
our conversion manual. This manual outlines
the key points of converting to our software
from other systems, and what we will do to make
the conversion as smooth as possible.
Our conversion specialists will write a conversion
script to convert your data while you continue
to work with the old system. Because we have
the sample data, you can continue using the
old system without worry or interruption. Once
