Description
Presenter:
- Adegoroye Adebola Oluwamayokun (Lagos State University)
A
A
Koa
as
an
open
source,
software
has
impacted
greatly
on
the
services
and
routine
of
Fatu
ademola
akisode
Library
lasso,
and
has
received
wide
acceptance
from
both
Library
staff
and
students.
After
the
implementation
and
data
migration
into
the
core
software
Lagos
State
University
Library
are
migrated
from
Alice
for
Windows
to
cover
software,
and
this
has
brought
about
a
complete
change
in
the
library
workplace.
All
routines
of
the
library
has
been
fully
computerized,
and
now
the
library
can
boast
fully
of
a
functional
virtual
library,
service.
A
There
were
244
respondents
which
consists
of
37
Library
staffs,
which
also
includes
liberians,
as
well
as
Library
officers,
and
also
207.
Undergraduates
and
postgraduate
students
participated
in
this
study,
and
this
study
revealed
that
the
level
of
satisfaction
and
utilization
by
Library
staff
were
very
high
due
to
the
friendly
interface
of
the
core
software.
A
The
software
package
formerly
used
in
Fatima
ademola
akisode
library,
was
Alice
for
Windows,
but
these
had
a
few
limitations
which
includes
the
fact
that
it
was
not
user
friendly.
It
is
not
integrated,
it
does
not
support.
The
OPAC
does
not
support
RSS
speed.
The
users
also
cannot
register
from
the
OPAC,
unlike
KOA,
also
unlike
KOA,
which
has
the
Library
of
Congress
search
button.
The
z3950
SRU
button,
it
does
not
support,
features
like
pulling
of
data
from
such
sites.
A
Also,
some
data
migration
were
done
manually
as
a
result
of
the
fact
that
some
of
them
were
not
found
on
the
Library
of
Congress
page
also,
libraries
that
are
attached
other
libraries
that
are
attached
to
Fatu
ademola
akesode
Library,
like
some
of
it's
College
libraries
and
other
other
Branch
libraries
in
other
locations
at
Their
audience
converted
into
Excel
format
and
was
inputed
into
the
core
software.
So
this
data
migration
was
done
by
a
group
of
professionals
as
well
as
paraprofessionals
in
the
cataloging
and
classification
unit
of
the
technical
service
department.
A
After
they
had
been
given
sufficient
training.
The
software
package
is
currently
in
use
in
the
universities
in
the
University.
Libraries
in
Nigeria
are
represented
in
the
graph
and
KOA
is
shown
to
be
ranked
the
highest
amongst
all
of
these
softwares,
and
we
can
see
that
KOA
ranked
to
about
87
percent
from
the
findings
of
this
presentation.
Go
around
87
percent.
A
Also
from
the
results
of
the
findings,
core
adoption
was
basically
done
by
liberians,
as
well
as
Library
officers
and
also
postgraduates,
and
undergraduate
students
within
the
university.
Nine
percent
of
the
liberians
were
represented:
six
percent
of
Library
officers,
28
percent
of
postgraduates
and
57
percent
of
the
undergraduates.
A
A
Depicted
there
in
the
next
slide,
and
the
next
slide
also
shows
a
search
results
from
the
OPAC
which
is
connected
to
the
open
software
of
core.
As
indicated
in
the
slide
below
the
interface
of
KOA,
contains
the
circulation
module,
the
cataloging
module,
the
patreon
model,
the
serial
model,
the
acquisition
model,
the
report
model,
the
tool
module,
the
core
Administration
about
core
the
authority
and
the
list.
All
of
these
were
included
in
the
training
section
done
with
the
liberians
and
the
library
officers
within
ademola
akisode
Library.
A
A
A
In
conclusion,
the
adoption,
implementation
and
migration
of
data
using
the
KOA
open
software
has
helped
to
build
a
new
image
for
Fatu
ademola
akisode
Library
lasso,
and
this
has
also
altered
the
way
in
which
Library
routine
is
being
carried
out
and
the
way
in
which
the
library
provides
its
services
to
its
patrons
and
also
it
has
elevated
the
standing
of
this
Library
amongst
the
greatest
academic
libraries
in
the
southwest
of
Nigeria
and
also
gave
it
a
High
ranking
throughout
the
continent
of
Africa.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
time.
