Rockville, MD, October 26, 2023 – Two public libraries in Japan went live on Bibliovation 7.2 and joined the LibLime customer family. One of the libraries serves a community on the southeastern side of the main Okinawa island and the second library is on the island of Honshu outside of the greater Tokyo metropolitan center. Both libraries serve their communities through a variety of different library programs including the dissemination of both print and digital collections.
Since LibLime has been providing hosting solutions to its library customers for over fifteen years, these libraries are now benefiting from a browser-based library management solution housed in a FedRAMP-certified hosting facility. Each library received stellar LibLime implementation services covering data analysis, data migration, system configuration, supervisor training, and staff workflow training all under the direction of a PMP-certified Project Manager. The libraries selected Bibliovation 7.2 because of its UNICODE-compliant database and interface, its flexible circulation policy support, and its easy-to-use staff interface.
The library staffs are also enjoying reading and commenting on the bi-weekly LibLime blog posts found at https://liblime.com/category/liblime/blog/
