Township of Russell Public Library Successfully Implements V-smart

Framingham, MA, April 27, 2011. Infor announced today that the Township of Russell Public Library in Ontario, Canada has successfully implemented V-smart, Infor's web-based integrated library system. With the implementation of V-smart, the Township of Russell Public Library now provides its users enhanced access to the library's French and English collections of books, audiobooks, movies, and magazines.

Claire Dionne, CEO/ Directrice générale, Township of Russell Public Library, says: "Our first live V-smart day went great and we are very excited with our new system which makes it possible for us to offer an enhanced service to our clientele. Our patrons are very excited about being able to reserve items and renew loans online now, which they could not do in the past. In addition, they can post their evaluations and comments on favorite items. The V-smart Web OPAC also provides our patrons with many other features that allow them to discover our collections and enjoy them to the fullest extent. We are also very pleased with the implementation process, which went quite well.”
