Hi, everyone -
Can you help in suggesting a solution for a large library/archive with fairly basic needs? I am looking for a simple package to manage 1 million + records held on a mile of shelves:-
* Just to catalogue new books/documents/files, search, record new loans and returns and report outstanding loans. * It can be standalone - up to 10 users - with no remote access necessary.
* Other processes can continue to be handled manually but a modular system would allow for future additional functions.
It does need to handle 'fuzzy' searches, etc. - e.g. names where (mis)spellings could be problematic.
Does such a solution exist?
Thanks for your help.
