Center for Military Science Information automates its library with iLib

iLib - the e-library solution offered by CMC TS to Center for Military Science Information has supported Ministry of Defense to search for information and documents throughout the army. Center for Military Science Information can easily manage books and documents of the library; activities of inventory, borrowing and returning books are all automated to save time and enhance experience of readers.

Center for Military Science Information under Ministry of Defense of Vietnam is the leading strategic advisory agency of the army in terms of military science information. Before, without CMC’s iLib solution, the Center encountered a lot of difficulties in managing physical and electronic documents; thus, locating documents and books for readers was still manual; searching was based on labels and catalogs, and it took a lot of efforts to find the desired documents.

Document statistical reports were also prepared manually, which is very time-consuming, and information sharing was also very difficult and costly.

The iLib e-library solution of CMC TS  meets the requirements of Center for Military Science Information - Ministry of Defense, including:

Using distributed model and centralized database model to meet requirements of data synchronization on the centralized server;

Document look-up can be performed across the army;

Integrating security magnetic port to iLib software, ensuring to control the entry and exit of readers as well as documents in and out to avoid loss of documents during service;

Integrating automated book inventory;

Integrating 24/7 semi-automated machines for borrowing and returning books: readers can borrow and return at any time.

After using iLib, customers are satisfied with the solution that CMC deploys. The number of customers knows about the product and solution is increasing, including those who have used older versions of iLib software and want to upgrade to a later version.
