%T Virtualizing your ILS client
%U https://beta-documents.el-una.org/id/eprint/1562/
%X As libraries shift more towards hosted and SaS (Software as Service) ILS applications, there is an increasing expectation that the clients will behave like web-based software. At The New School we still work with primarily self-hosted ILS components (centered around Aleph), however we have begun using AppsAnywhere to create virtualized clients for our self-hosted applications. In our presentation, we will talk about what a virtualized client is, how it behaves differently from a locally installed client, and generally investigate the benefits and challenges of virtualized clients.
