Seating is limited. The culmination of the Encore Implementation for Prospector is this Encore kickoff program. The kickoff is a chance for Innovative Interfaces to introduce Encore to the Alliance and for local library staff from Prospector libraries to see Encore in the union catalog environment. The program will begin by Innovative Interfaces presenting the application and it will include plenty of time for questions and answers. This session will provide a preliminary look at this new discovery interface for Prospector, and will assist us in making final decisions on the look-and-feel before the formal public Encore release that is currently scheduled for July 2010.
