RE: [IUG] Migrating from Sirsi

["Mann, James H." <JMann at gcpl dot lib dot oh dot us>]

I agree.
We came over from DRA and I'd recommend that you go ahead and buy
whatever is the current version of the "divorce" package. DRA offered a
software only solution and an extraction solution so depending on your
situation there may be more than one solution.

I used to work in a Sirsi environment.  If you have someone with good
API skills you can do the extraction yourself.  Personally, I would pay
the two grand (or so) to have Sirsi do it.  Getting the MARC records out
is one thing.  Getting all those little things like holdshelf data and
fines is another.
