Hi Barrie, Ex-Libris was the latest vendor to use DLF ERMI work. Before that, Innovative, Endeavor, etc... have something in the market...VTLS Verify, Sirsi-Dynix and Serial Solutions are on their way. All of them claim support of DLF ERMI. They know that DLF ERMI is a minimal requirement to get the buy in of customers.

Verde is built around specifications developed by the DLF ERMI Steering Group, providing a powerful tool for ERM. It is encouraging to see the valuable work of ERMI taking root in industry and leveraging the knowledge base of DLF. Congratulations to the authors for a job well done. Best wishes, Barrie L.
