It was
the last year that the first libraries entered into the production phase with
Alma, the next generation library system of Ex Libris. Alma with the Unified Resource Management
framework (URM) is designed to consolidate the library management systems on
the different resources, the print, electronic and digital as well. We illustrate in the lecture how Alma optimizes
the libraries’ workflows through shared data and collaborative services and how
Alma increases the value and acceptance of the library for the mother institute
offering more accurate creative easy to use information, hence contributing to
the quality of the teaching and research activities. All that comes from the
Alma cloud services.
