About Us"LibSys for library automation" is the prime mission of New Delhi based software company - Info-Tek Consultants Pvt. Ltd., engaged in providing software solutions for General Insurance and ERP/CRM since 1984. Its continuous growth for the last 12 years, has made LibSys a defacto standard for libraries in India. Its acceptance in global market further strengthens its popularity across the country as the most field proven library system in a wide spectrum of libraries with unmatchable depth in functionality and features. With an open system architecture (3-tier) since its inception and its continuous transition from a host multi-user system to Client-Server implementation and finally a total web-based solution, makes LibSys an advanced multidimensional library system. A powerful and user friendly Web-OPAC along with Windows based OPAC, makes it an outstanding choice for a Library system. LibSys handles Indian languages/scripts using ISM Publisher and GIST of C-DAC. There is an additional 'Unicode' support in LibSys that facilitates handling of both International and Indian languages/scripts. When it comes to choosing a suitable platform for LibSys implementation - there are many possibilities such as WINDOWS (NT/2000/XP), UNIX (various flavours) and LINUX, giving a feel of open system for expandability and cross migration in future. Besides its own proprietary database handling capabilities, any preferred industry standard RDBMS such as SQL Server, ORACLE, MySQL etc. can be used as a back-end. For a modern library having Electronic Surveillance Gate based security system installed, the LSmart interface in LibSys supports various self check-out counters, Book drops stations, etc. based on RFID or any other advance technology. Adherence of LibSys to standards such as MARC and Z39.50 makes it suitable for cooperative networking and resource sharing. As LibSys can handle digital contents along with various multimedia files and electronic resources, implementation of a virtual library is a distinct possibility. |
