<p>Hi, Kathy. The CCL-EAR Committee (community college librarians of California who review databases with respect to our consortium, CCL) is actually working on a year long project on such a comparison. We have only just started but we hope to have something
published in 2016, so stay tuned.</p>

<div dir="ltr">We are coming to the end of a 3 year contract for our current discovery system, and are starting a trial for another system. I am trying to come up with an effective way of evaluating and comparing the two systems in order to make a decision
about which one to go forward with. Has anyone done this recently and do you have any advice/ warnings/ ideas/ suggestions, etc?
