[aisle] Alexandria 7 Cloud Hosted

[Joni Darby]

I like Version 7 as you may access it from anywhere being Cloud hosted.
There are a few changes to get used to, but it really is better than V6 for
the times were are in right now. Tech support is there to answer any
questions and I would advise you to join in on the live webinar tutorials
offered each month for the basics.  They have an archive of tutorials as
well. The researcher has extra tools to enhance students finding books they
want to read. I have not had Destiny either, but do like this version
better.  You may easily set up automatic emails to go to students for
overdue notices and coming due notices which I like also.
