CLSI'S LIBS‐100 LIVE AT COVENTRY LANCHESTER POLYTECHNIC LIBRARY
Abstract
During 1985 CLSI established itself as an obvious force in the UK turnkey market place, acquiring 5 customers for its LIBS‐100 system in the course of the year. The first of these, signed up in April 1985, were the libraries of Coventry City and Coventry Lanchester Polytechnic who jointly went out to tender towards the end of 1984. Though the specification and contract were a combined effort, the system selected to meet the OR does, in fact, run on two minicomputer systems each with its own LIBS‐100 software and database. These pages look at the introduction of the system into the Polytechnic Library, which went live with circulation control and cataloguing in September 1985 and, at the time of my visit, were testing acquisitions prior to going live early in 1986.
