Description
As a join2 partner, DESY library uses Invenio already for it's publication database and institutional repository. The next logical step is to also migrate the library catalogue from the currently used Aleph system to Invenio. Starting out with a short introduction of how to migrate Aleph. This includes the migration of bibliographic data as well as holdings but also movement data, current loans etc.
The talk also outlines some of the new additions required to run Invenio as an ILS at DESY based on the infrastructure already existing. E.g. it is necessary for DESY to interact with RFID based self service terminals, barcode based library cards and external patrons who have not DESY account etc.
