Looking to revitalize your library’s material handling strategy? Want to learn how Lyngsoe’s Intelligent Material Management System (IMMS) can help?

SirsiDynix and Lyngsoe Systems have presented a number of webinars and Connections sessions on Lyngsoe’s IMMS, a transformative application that complements your existing ILS and offers unprecedented transparency in your library’s material flow.

Chaotic storage – This is used in two areas of IMMS: managing hold shelves and behind-the-scenes in the Media Hotel.

As always, there will be plenty of time for questions, not just on these two areas, but on any aspect of IMMS and the integration of IMMS with Symphony.
