Library Automation - Coser 553
Our participating districts are focused on meeting students' need of information literacy with central server technology. The libraries have migrated to TLC's School Library Solution. This service connects each library to a single database containing the 250,000 holding records for all districts in Sullivan County. With the new software the catalogs are accessible to parents, teachers and students via online from their homes and classrooms. Library patrons will be able to request materials and electronic information at their convenience, making a virtual library available 24/7/365. Just implemented is a free app for smartphones like iPhone and Android for searching and requesting materials. This transition is in alignment with the State's emphasis on infusing information literacy in the classroms, arming the students with the skills needed to thrive in a technology-based society. This service includes training, technical support, and Internet-accessible information databases at a discounted cost to our schools.
