TRAINING

A one-day training session is now available for your staff at your location. The cost is based on a one-day Session Fee (US$800) plus travel expenses for our trainer. Please contact us for scheduling and pricing. Because the training is necessarily interactive, we suggest classes be limited to 35.

The curriculum first takes your staff through the main features of PC Card Catalog or CONCEPT I, focussing on the common day-to-day activities included in BASIC and CIRCULATION. The second session draws attention to the more subtle features with an emphasis on how to use them in your library. A final session deals with issues such as networking and program structure. We also study the peripheral programs like OurLibraryOnline web catalog or Public Access (OPAC) or CONCEPT I ADMIN as appropriate.

We do not provide cataloging or library administrative training other than where these items overlap the use of PC Card Catalog and CONCEPT I.


ON-SITE COMMISSIONING

Designed for larger, networked installations, we provide on-site technical staff to work with your network administrator. The purpose of "commissioning" is to complete and confirm the final set-up of a multi-user PC Card Catalog, CONCEPT I or web/intranet-based Net Card Catalog installation.

The cost is based on a one-day Commissioning Fee (US$800) plus the travel expenses for our technician. Please contact us for scheduling and pricing.
