The "Turkiye Public Libraries ILS Migration" refers to migrating the Integrated Library System (ILS) used by all 1112 public libraries in Turkey to a new system. An ILS software platform manages a library's collection, patron data, and other essential library operations. The migration aims to improve the functionality and efficiency of the library system and ensure better access to resources and services for library patrons.
The migration process involves:
- transferring data from the old system to the new one
- standardization of existing data
- modifying the ILS software to meet the specific needs of Turkish public libraries
- configuring hardware, software, and network components that enable efficient data storage, processing and delivery
- training library staff and users on how to use the new system
