UPDATED: Library Automation System Review 24-25
The SLS has made great progress with our in-house review of library automation systems. We have hosted an in-person Automation Review where our librarians got to ask questions in live-time with the contenders.
Now we need to hear from you! I have updated the guide to include more office hours as well as the link to feedback forms.
Please email Bri with any further questions if you can not make the office hours!
