Scappoose Public Library District ILS Migration and Merger with St. Helens Public Library Catalog

About This Grant

The Scappoose Public Library will migrate to the integrating library system (ILS) that is currently in use by the St. Helens Public Library. This will enhance both libraries' infrastructure by providing a joint ILS that is cloud hosted, web based, and compatible with mobile devices. It will also enhance St. Helens patrons' discovery of ebooks as the new catalog will have the ability to check out ebooks directly. This merger coud serve as an intial building block for future union catalogs among other libraries in Columbia County.
