The Library Corporation, Inc. (TLC) to provide a library automation system. TLC provides the
Library with a web -based client server that manages library accounts and maintains an inventory
of books in -stock and circulating. The software allows patrons to search the catalog of inventory
from a Library computer, or remotely through an internet connection. The software includes a
report module that prints a variety of information, including circulation statistics and the number
of titles in each collection. The acquisition module helps manage the book budget for each
collection and provides a quick and efficient way to search for new titles, process orders, and
catalog items being added to the collection.
Maintenance services include 24 -hour telephone and online support, licensed software updates,
staff training, online access to cataloging resources, and enhanced content databases. The
agreement is for a three -year period from July 2014 through June 2017 at a cost of $31,618 per
year. By committing to a three -year term, the city will not be subject to the company's annual
CPI increase thereby realizing a savings of $9,806 for the City over the three -year period.
The service will be upgraded by providing enhanced presentation of book content on the public
catalog. The cost of the upgrade for three years will total $17,405. Additionally there is a one-
time charge of $480 for Quickscan support. The total cost of the agreement is not to exceed
$112,739 over the three -year term.
