Ann B. Hutton, Executive Director

CODI (CODI (Customers of Dynix Inc.) convened during ALA Midwinter for a quick update.

  • Gary Rautenstrauch, SirsiDynix CEO, promised to continue corporate efforts to “pump up communication".
  • Berit Nelson, VP-Technical Product Management, reviewed recent and upcoming product news about SirsiDynix Symphony 3.2, Horizon 7.4.1 and HIP 3.09/4.13, as well as a reminder that PocketCirc (which excited me last Midwinter) is now available for Horizon customers.
  • Matt Hawkins, Chief Operating Officer, described the company’s future plans for client care and software implementation, highlighting the new SirsiDynix Client Care website.
  • Amy Terlaga, CODI President, and Assistant Director of User Services at Bibliomation, Inc., reported on recent CODI Board activities and future plans.  
    • The Board has been attending to details that will eventually lead to merging CODI and the Unicorn user group, UUGI.
    • CODI, UUGI, and SirsiDynix have begun discussions on how to merge and manage the two processes being used to recommend software enhancements, as well as plans for the first joint conference, April 2009, in Dallas.
    • CODI members can expect SirsiDynix to post info on topics of current interest, at least twice monthly, as well as “white papers” or technical tips prepared monthly by SirsiDynix staff.  
    • The CODI Board will create a survey (to be distributed this month) soliciting information from CODI members on use of third-party products.  The responses will be shared with SirsiDynix in order to verify which products will work with Symphony.
