Key to the successful implementation of every local system is a high quality database; conversely, nothing undermines the credibility of a local system more than a poorly prepared database. As an experienced library automation vendor with a strong commitment to quality work, Library Technologies, Inc. provides a comprehensive program of professional database preparation services. These include a variety of duplicate record resolution options, MARC record updates and cleanups, local system item field builds, item field remapping for local system migrations, smart and dumb barcode label production, media transfers, and batch and continuing authority control.
