		<description><![CDATA[Planning a migration? Eventually you&#8217;ll have to determine when you&#8217;re going to unplug your existing maintenance contract, an important factor given the ILS marketplace norm of restricting usage to paying maintenance customers.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll be attending the One Big Library unconference later this month and I am hoping to hear some discussion on some of those sticky ownership and control issues. Yes, libraries are all about sharing and open access, reducing barriers to ensure information and knowledge for all, and so on. And of course many Big Library [...]]]></description>
