Hi Stacy - I was previously on Koha at another library and we're now on Sirsi. I'll email you off list with some ideas - no guarantees, but I may have some work-arounds for you.

Subject: [LIBRARYDIR] Reciprocal borrowing between different ILS providers


All

We have been in a local consortium with a public library district.  We are all currently on open-source KOHA for our ILS.  They have told us they are moving to Sirsi/Dynix but want to maintain reciprocal borrowing between our libraries.  Since we can’t afford the migration and maintenance costs, we can’t move. Has anyone had any experience with trying to accommodate reciprocal borrowing when there is no shared ILS?  I’m stumped.  Their tech person seems to think he can make a patch or something simple, but I think he’s in over his head on this one.  Thoughts?
