It’s worth subscribing to the LIBRARY News feed from the CUNY Office of Library Services, if only to pick up interesting tidbits like this:
The goals for the 2009-2010 academic year are to:
• work with Computer Information Systems to ensure a reliable back-up for all CUNY library systems in the event of a failure;
• test Ex Libris’s remote information technology services;
• review and update the OLS websites;
• implement the ALEPH Reporting Center so that campus libraries have direct access to CUNY statistics;
• select and implement an electronic resources management system;
• ensure the flow of patron data from CUNYfirst—the university’s enterprise resource planning system for student administration, finance and human resources—to Aleph, the library system.
