Description
Summary:MultiLIS is an integrated library software product that can be purchased on a modular basis or as a turnkey system encompassing both hardware and software. Acquisitions, cataloging, online public access, circulation, book exchange, local policy management, management and statistical report modules, and a report generator are currently available. An enhanced serials management module will be released in 1989. The software is written in PASCAL and C languages, and is available in either VMS or EUNIX V operating system versions. The VMS version is designed to run on Digital VAX computers, while UNIX V will run on a wider range of machines, including NCR Tower machines. MultiLIS features a strong network option, as well as a low cost annual software support agreement, providing users with telephone support services and all software updates.
