I worked on the project for our division to bring Destiny to all our high schools. I loved it. It was easy to teach to our paraprofessionals as well as our LMS. Feel free to ask me any questions. Roxanne

I also use Follet's Destiny and love it - insist on some training from them - there is a TON you can do with it! I work at a high school and use many of Gale's databases. I've really liked them, but they are geared for MS and HS students.

Several of us in a rural area went with Winnebago 20 years ago, which was acquired by Follett. We now are planning to move to OpenSource, thought about Koha, now more serious about Evergreen. Nancy

I just purchased and intstalled Destiny about 3 weeks ago. So far, it is FABULOUS! I have run tons of reports, imported books, cataloged books, and everything is SO user-friendly and also the tech support has been great. Just my 2 cents!

Hi James, I have worked with Oasis, Horizon, SDM, L4U and Follett but not Follett Destiny. I have a preference for Follett over the others and I am looking forward to upgrading to Follett Destiny next year. Richard Beadry Librarian Langley Seconda…
