The Library Corporation Proposal for Cabarrus County Public Library <br />Data Preparation <br />All data analysis, data normalization, and migration is performed by TLC staff at our central <br />headquarters; no work is sub - contracted. Data preparation includes conversion of yourtransaction (fines, <br />holds, reserves, checkouts) and patron files. This applies to migration of MARC records with a consistent <br />holdings field. Holdings field must include at a minimum a code signifying item location or collection, and <br />a barcode or other unique item ID number. Additional costs may be incurred if the MARC data does not <br />meet the above conditions. <br />NOTE: TLC has successfully imported extracted bibliographic MARC, holdings, patron and transaction <br />data from most other legacy library automation systems into our system. Because of our experience with <br />so many systems, we can offer guidance or refer you to an informed TLC customer for help in extracting <br />your own data. In the rare instance that a library is unable to extract its own data, it may be necessary to <br />have the legacy vendor extract this data. It has been our experience that these vendors will negotiate a <br />fee for this service. <br />There are a few vendors whose transaction data is in proprietary format and cannot be converted by any <br />vendor. <br />TLC Proprietary/Confidential <br />July 13, 2010 Page 6 <br />Attachment number 5 <br />F -12 Page 328 <br />
