Jisc Is Now Part of FOLIO
Jisc joined as a partner in the FOLIO community, which aims to develop an open source library services platform (LSP). According to the blog post, “Jisc will bring their expertise to the project while looking to leverage FOLIO’s technologies in their own projects where appropriate.”“Jisc is interested in being directly involved with FOLIO to contribute to its innovative efforts to shape the future of libraries,” says Ross MacIntyre, Jisc’s head of library analytics services. “As a champion of the future of digital technologies, we believe that FOLIO is an important initiative for libraries. We are in favour of increasing the choice available to our members and would like to see more competition in the library management system marketplace. We welcome an open and community-driven approach to developing services for libraries, and we appreciate the efforts of the global FOLIO Community to solve problems of need and scale.” For more information, read the blog post.
