NewGenLib
by Kshema Prakash 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Dear Dr. Haravu sir and Dr. Mohan, I am writing in response to Dr. Mohan's message in LIS Forum Digest Vol 121 (28) I feel glad to hear about Dr. Mohan's experience of NewGenLib. I completely agree with the fact that Team NGL's continuous support can be called "par excellence"!! I have an experience of implementing NewGenLib at two places. Presently, at IIT Jodhpur we are using NewGenLib Open Source with continuous support of Verus Solutions (Team NGL). It gives me immense pleasure to share my views regarding customization requirements or even suggest innovative features to them. They not only receive them positively but also sincerely try to incorporate them in a best possible manner. Many times, their suggestions to improve our manpower-constrained situations save us from grave problems. As we say it takes two hands to clap, so also it takes effort from both sides to make a relationship work well. I am very thankful to Haravu sir for supporting me in my activities always. I also thank Verus Solutions (Mr. Siddartha) and his excellent team for their continued support to us. With best regards, Kshema ---------------------------------------- Dr. (Mrs.) Kshema Prakash Deputy Librarian Indian Institute of Technology Jodhpur Old Residency Road Ratanada JODHPUR 342 011 * ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tel: +91-291-2449038 Mobile: +91-7742941299 Email: kshema(a)iitj.ac.in, kshemaprakash(a)gmail.com, library(a)iitj.ac.in -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

sharing the experience with the Open source software NewGenLib
by Mohan T A 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Dear Professionals I am sharing the experience with the Open source software NewGenLib. There is an update once in every 45 days (sometimes earlier but not later). In each of these updates NewGenLib team has incorporated librarian requirements/suggestions. I suggested many suggestions; they incorporated all of them in the software as and when new version is released. To Name a few - Import patron data from excel to NewGenLib - Bulk Import photos - SMS and email facility for Books transaction , overdue notice etc. - Overriding of Patron Id. - Promotion of courses - Batch import of invoice date, Invoice No. amount etc - In Web Opac uses them self can update their email and mobile no. and know no of books borrowed etc. All the facility/features are added at free of cost. Recently one more facility was added to Newgenlib i.e. self check in and self checkout The good thing about the system is that through their NGL Adaptation Program they have provided all the services like Installation , data conversion , online training, upgradation, New features, latest technology….etc absolutely free of cost. It was not just for my library but to all libraries I have recommended to go for this adaptation program. When ever I have any kind of a problem or a issue I always had NGL team to help me address the problem immediately. And through Internet they resolve my issues almost instantly. Being a user of NewgenLib Open Source I highly recommended Newgenlib for my fellow professionals. I hope this information will be useful. with regards T A Mohan Librarian Siddaganga Institute of Technology TUMKUR E-mail: mohan(a)sit.ac.in tamohanta(a)rediffmail.com Phone: 0816 2214078 Mobile:9343525141 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
