Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council:
1} Approve transfers of $536,994 from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund
10-010001-00 and $536,994 from Special Gifts Fund 88-841005-00 to the General
Fund;
2) Approve the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance far the General
Fund increasing appropriations and estimated receipts by $1,073,988 in
Account No. 84-10-00, Library Administration, for the purchase of an auto-
mated library system; and,
3) Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with CL Systems, Inc., for
an automated library system including software, hardware, and all other
system equipment and appurtenances, installation, testing, traininy and a
one-year warranty of same for use in the Central Library and branches of the
Fort Worth Public Library in an amount not to exceed $1,073,988.
Discussion
n Novem er 13, 1984, the City Council accepted a $600,000 challenge grant from
the Amon G. Carter Foundation and agreed to match that amount to purchase an
automated library system for the Fort Worth Public Library. A Request for Propo-
sals for an automated, integrated library system was released and distributed to
all interested vendors on January 24, 1985. Five resNonses were received and
opened on P1arc~- 14.
After meetings with the various vendors, demonstrations of their systems and ex-
tensive evaluation by the staff of the Library and Data Processing Departments,
the proposal submitted by CL Systems of West Newton, MA, is recommended for
acceptance. The recommendation is based on the following considerations:
1} CL Systems has a rnore fully developed system,
2} CL Systems has experience automating more than 600 libraries;
3) A number of the installed systems are in libraries as large or larger than
the Fort Worth Public Library;
4) The proposed hardware is state-of-the-art with significant growth capacity,
and,
5) CL Systems is the low bidder.
