SirsiDynix

SirsiDynix Symphony is a proven, robust ILS for the next generation in library technology. It has all the robust functionality and customization capabilities, giving you the tools you need to run a modern library of any type or size. With Symphony Web, the browser-based staff tool for Symphony, your library will no longer be dependent on desktops, upgrades, or installs. Symphony supports your staff from wherever they are.

If you’d prefer a desktop client for your staff, Symphony does that too with WorkFlows. It ensures a seamless, consistent staff experience—from acquisitions and cataloging to circulation and reporting.

Whatever your workflows and however your patrons access the library, Symphony can support them all. Centered on workflow flexibility, if you can dream it, Symphony can do it. Tools like books by mail, self-service holds, materials booking, sms messaging, and more are all at your disposal.

Add Symphony Web, for a fully functional browser-based client experience and your library can channel the power of the cloud and become untethered from library desktops. Cloud access removes the need for station-by-station software installation. Your browser always loads the most recent version. With Symphony's expansive and granular administration options, your system can be as complex or as simple as it needs to be. Take total control over staff roles and editing privileges, with separate policies for each site and/or user.

From volunteers to Sys Admins, Symphony has flexible policies, administration, workflows and settings for all your library roles. Get control of what goes where, when, and how. And with Symphony's bank of over 600 APIs and Web Services, you can customize your system to be the perfect fit.

Symphony Web provides the ability for everyone in the library to gain access to the ILS simply by using the internet. No more ties that tether you to your system computer—Symphony Web provides easy access. Use intuitive interface to easily manage all your needs in between teams and roles so you can catalog materials, track budgets, manage holds, and more.

From themes and pages to collections and search settings, your library can customize nearly every part of the SirsiDynix Enterprise discovery tool. Gather all your resources together in your own unique catalog, and create the ideal search experience for your users.

When you integrate Enterprise with Discovery Services, your users can access full-text journal articles with one click, directly from your catalog, whether they’re on- or off-campus. And with the EDS Publication Placard, your users can search within specific journal titles without leaving Enterprise.

No matter your users’ search skills, Enterprise uses fuzzy searching and autocomplete suggestions to give them an interface they’re used to. From the hit list, patrons can use a variety of facets to narrow the results—no advanced search techniques necessary.

Make Enterprise your own by uploading your library’s logo and changing the color scheme to match your own branding. If you want to use Enterprise as your library’s website, you can create as many webpages as you need using Enterprise’s WYSIWYG editor. For more granular control, you can easily add your own HTML and CSS code to Enterprise.

Combine Enterprise with eResource Central to give users one-click access to eBooks, eAudiobooks, and eVideo from your catalog. Connect Portfolio to interfile your digital assets with your library’s other resources. Want to add more databases to your catalog? Enterprise also supports as many federated search sources as you need.

Help your users find your most valuable resources with SirsiDynix Portfolio. As both a digital asset manager and a discovery tool, Portfolio brings your PDFs, images, videos, audio files, and more straight to your online catalog.

Portfolio's metadata format manager makes it simple to batch modify your assets. With this functionality, Portfolio can manage all your library's digital assets.

When users search your catalog in Enterprise, Portfolio will interfile your relevant digital assets alongside your other resources. Researchers don’t need to memorize your sitemap to find your assets—they’ll appear in the hitlist, just like everything else in your catalog.

Portfolio can also manage your local digital repositories, using OAI-PMH to harvest and display the appropriate metadata in Enterprise. When patrons click on an asset, they will be redirected to your server automatically.
