[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Before you get to the tech....weed, weed and weed some more.
Destiny will walk you through the rest.

In the very near future our school district will be converting to Destiny library software. We have 2 physical locations - one for PreK to 4th and another for 5th to 8th grades.This will be a HUGE technology leap for the district. The elementary school is still handwriting their names on white check out cards.

The elementary school has about 300 students and 5000 books. The middle school has about 240 students and 6000 books.

I've been here 2+ years and inherited the current system. I've never set up one from scratch. I'm sure I'll feel better once I have some Destiny material in my hands so I can start planning but I'd love to hear any suggestions you have.
