Liberty has time-saving and effective features

Kommentare: I have been able to digitise useful information relevant to the needs of remote field staff and upload it on Liberty. Patrons access the information using Liberty Mobile app.

Vorteile:

Liberty has been ideal in bringing information resources to stakeholders in the field. The community development field staff are oriented on how to use Liberty Mobile app such that they are able to access information resources whilst in their duty stations, any time. With Liberty, collection development has been automated in relation to budget that has been allocated to procurement of information resources. We are able to purchase library materials within the allocated budget. The Liberty Acquisition module enables our corporate Library to make accurate orders, track the ordered resources as well as produce periodic acquisition reports. Such transparency and accountability has been essential for library funding by the mother institution. Liberty's OPAC is packed with self-service features. The corporate Library's patrons are able to identify whether a particular title is on loan, booked or available. We customised Liberty's interface to display valuable information to patrons such as opening hours, new acquisitions and Library regulations. In a bid to provide as many metadata as possible, AI Enhance feature enables us to screenshort and add to records useful aspects of a resource such as table of contents and abstract. Liberty's Serial module removes hasles associated with subscription of periodicals. We simply use a wizard which guides us through a step-by-step process of subscribing titles. Patrons too use this module to search for serials.

Nachteile:

Because Liberty is more mobile device oriented, patrons wish to find all the resources on their mobile devices. However, patrons get frustrated when they retrieve records that only show metadata.

HCPharm

Vorteile:

Super user friendly. When we have students who rotate through they always say it's one of if not the easiest systems to learn. I also love being able to request new features.

Nachteile:

We've had a few issues at times when updates are released but they are usually resolved in a timely manner.
