TLC begins migrating customers into the cloud for the next generation of hosting services.
TLC won two Platinum Modern Library Awards for LS2 Kids from the Library•Solution platform and Self Check•Connect from the CARL platform.
TLC also completed development within the cataloging and staff clients to automate links (Intellectual Identifiers, or IIDs) between bibliographic records that appear to be of the same intellectual content within the CARL database.
All IIDs generated within CARL•X would be assigned a Trusted Record based on an evaluation of the quality of all records in a given set (based on Encoding Level of the bibliographic records) along with the most recent entry into the catalog.
Together, Trusted Records and IIDs support the FRBR-ized view of intellectual content within CARL•Connect Discovery.
