Dear code4lib community


With the inevitable apologies for cross-posting, I thought some of you
might be interested to learn about the Request for Information that was
issued today by a group of Ontario colleges looking at next generation
library systems:
https://www.ocls.ca/sites/default/files/attachments/OCLS-RFI-2019-001%20Collaborative%20Library%20Services%20Platform.pdf



From the project description:

The objective of this Request for Information (RFI) is to identify and
explore capabilities and practices of vendors that may be viable providers
of products or services necessary to support a shared Library Services
Platform among Ontario college libraries. Responses to this RFI, and
possible follow-up consultations, may be used to build a business case for
proceeding to the next phase of the project. This RFI process may inform
the development of a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an LSP. Information
given in the RFI will not be used to pre-qualify vendors for the RFP.



Best,

Thomas
