Alma Roadshow Series

in South Africa

 

Monday 12th  November  2012 - Stellenbosch

Wednesday 14th November 2012 - Durban

Thursday 15th November 2012 - Pretoria

 

 

We are pleased to invite you to join us for Ex Libris' South Africa Alma Roadshow Series in November. This Roadshow Series gives you an opportunity to get more closely acquainted with Alma, Ex Libris' response to recent developments in the library market, where cost-effectiveness and economic-driven decisions are becoming increasingly important.

 

Alma has been developed in partnership with numerous libraries worldwide and has recently gone live at Boston College, Fort Hays State University (FHSU) and the University of East London. Ex Libris' Next Generation Library System streamlines procedures by incorporating the management of all resources. In addition the incorporation of top of the range analytics enables libraries to see exactly how their services are being used and therefore ensure effective decision-making.

 

As part of this Roadshow Series, you will be able to experience Alma live and learn more about Ex Libris' strategy for the future. Finally, the events have been structured to ensure ample opportunity for discussion and questions.

We would like at this juncture to extend our thanks to Stellenbosch University and the University of Pretoria for hosting these events.

Additionally, for those of you who can't wait until November to get to know Alma better, we would like to draw your attention to the Alma Classes. These are a series of five minute videos, each of which focuses on one specific functionality, thus enabling you more in-depth knowledge of Alma.

We look forward to seeing you in November!

 

Yours sincerely,

Daniela Wittig
