 * Welcome, wiki user!**

This wiki has been assembled to aid in the formulation of a technology plan which will support the goals and mission of the Magnolia Public Library based in Magnolia, Oregon. The technology committee implemented this wiki in order to efficiently and effectively share data and information throughout the technology planning process. The primary considerations that led to this plan were patron needs, library goals, and available budget, technology, and staff resources.

The technology committee has settled on implementing several cloud-based solutions in conjunction with our existing ILS system to help extend and enhance our current capabilities. These solutions include Springshare Analytics and Springshare LibGuides for patron need analysis and enhanced reference services, and Bibliocommons as an added discovery layer on our existing OPAC.

The Magnolia Public Library Technology Committee members are:

Amy Frazier Jaki King Sam Lohmann Amber Strangstalien
