Pros
- Cheapest option
- May appeal if you are a librarian
or have librarian experience
Cons
- You install yourself
- You have to enter in all books details
- You need to classify books
- Self-train
- Miss out on S.L.S. on-site expertise
- Could take up to 6 months to be ready
Final thoughts....
- Our advice is not to choose this option (unless you have librarian experience and alot of time on your hands).
-
- Data take-on process may well take up to 6 months (and more sometime) to enter in all your books details.
-
- However we do appreciate schools's may have limited resources.... Our intensive one day training option could be a viable alternative.
-
- You get so much more for your money and this may provide a half-way house between the 'software only' package and the more expensive Premium service.
