Comments (survey2024)
Generally, I feel that Library.Solution 5x is a product that would be a good match for small public or school libraries (especially those without dedicated cataloging staff) but is not a good fit for us and is struggling to fully move service to the Web.

We like our ILS vendor; the they are always responsive to specific issues, and are generally patron-focused (the PAC, despite missing some features, is one of the more friendly ones out there). However, there are some features that are now available in other ILS products that we would like to see implemented, and that are not on their current roadmap.
