Library Systems Replacement

The Library is at the heart of University provision as an academic Library of excellence, a physical and digital destination for knowledge acquisition, curation, and creation. The digital experience of the Library requires enhancement to match user expectations as a core service for a future-fit University.

We require a replacement Library Management Solution, matching or exceeding our specification as defined within this document, to be delivered before the start of Academic Year 2022-23.
