The FulfILLment design calls for a union database of bibliographic data. (The RFP itself was somewhat agnostic on the question -- it offered respondents the option of bidding a union database or a broadcast search.) @Larry — I don’t think so.

Perhaps something; perhaps nothing. In the short term it is probably more applicable to the public libraries that are in <a href="http://ohpir.westervillelibrary.org/" rel="nofollow">Search Ohio</a> now and the libraries that want to join in a seamless resource sharing system. In the longer term, FulfILLment could be considered as one of the strategic building blocks of the Catalog Architecture group. Having the state library and the other members of the collaborative invest in this tool and have it available in open source does inspire different ways of thinking about how we could re-engineer our systems, though.

Will the academic libraries using Innovative be participating too? So what does this system mean for OhioLINK resource sharing? Will the academic libraries using Innovative be participating too?
