Explore the ins and outs of our new investment initiative, and see how it will enhance product functionality, accelerate release timelines, and elevate the staff and patron user experience.

Zero in on the content that matters most to you by following one of three tracks for the day: Partner Connect, Explore SirsiDynix, or Academic.
