"The highly-professional, flexible Ex Libris/UvA team worked together closely to create a very efficient implementation process."
"Working with an experienced international vendor with a clear vision of next generation systems has been important to us," commented Marc van den Berg, head of the Department of Electronic Services, University of Amsterdam library. "We are pleased to be providing our users with such a robust and feature-rich system."
Marc Daubach, corporate vice president and general manager for Europe at Ex Libris, commented: "We are delighted that the University of Amsterdam library has identified Aleph as its solution of choice.
