Pacific Rim and Indian Ocean Libraries Live on Bibliovation 7.2

Rockville, MD, December 2, 2021 – Over a four-month timeframe, LibLime has brought six libraries live on the Bibliovation 7.2 Library Services Platform.  These six public libraries are all supporting local community members for print and digital library needs in their respective locations.  Two libraries are located in Guam; one is on the island of Diego Garcia; and three are in Japan including Atsugi, Sasebo, and Yokosuka.  The migration processes began in late summer and continued throughout the fall.   The library staffs are now enjoying the benefits of a 100% browser-based library management solution in a FedRAMP-certified hosting facility.  The users of the libraries are accessing their collections and related resources using the Bibliovation Discovery Layer.
