I was kinda all over the place this week. First I was researching Follet Destiny because that is what our LMS proposed two years ago. It was quite confusing moving around the site and just getting a good overview. I finally had to submit my name and email and then I received a link to a very boring and dry webinar!
I then heard about Koha from the boards and I was intrigued but then their website turned me off with all of its text.
Alas, through a serendipitous path of researching on Clusty.com, I found a link to this library science class's wiki and a student's awesome project all on SOPAC! I was so pumped after reading her awesome overview with great links and her multimedia collage! So so cool that frankly, it was hard to imagine improving upon it. Thank you Sarah Redmond. wherever you are! FLA? I tried to see if there was a way to contact her but I couldn't so I may try on twitter.
I fear my proposal is not as "academic" in content as others but I really was confused by all of the different options there. No wonder it takes over a year to do all of the research! Breeding's site is also very confusing and overwhelming.
Overall, I'm glad I came across SOPAC and others like it because boy, it makes this job even more exciting!

I just love reading this sort of thing! Where one person's work inspires another person who has no idea of its existence or even that anyone has seen it! I really hope you do contact her and let her know.
