Infor, a leading provider of business application software serving

has implemented Infor V-smart to help deliver next-generation

functionality. The integrated solution enables the library to attract
new members and improve service to current users by providing access
to both digital and traditional collections.

library's diverse bilingual collections and a range of interactive
options to manage account information and loans.

Dorval Public Library Quote
"Previously our members could only connect
with the system while on site at the library, so they were unable to
search for collection materials or view account data while at home,"
said Linda Burdayron, Division Chief, Library and Cultural Services,
City of Dorval. "With Infor V-smart, we can appeal to a new
generation of library members through the solution's collaborative
user interface, sophisticated search functionality and personalized
online environment that can be utilized from any location."
Infor Quote
"Infor helps libraries gain operational efficiencies and

create a true repository of knowledge, extend services, and gain key
insight into overall performance for effective decision making."
