7 Library Automation Systems Each year, an increasing number of our school libraries obtain computerized circulation and catalog systems. Listed below are 89 schools that currently have these systems in operation or development. In 1999, a team of School District librarians and Information Technology staff reviewed and evaluated library automation systems designed for school libraries. The Alexandria system was selected as the most suitable system for our schools. The selection was based on several criteria including cross-platform capability, system features, cost, ease of use, and networking technology. More information about the Alexandria system is available from the Library Programs and Services office, 215-299-2543.
