LEAP does not require any installation of software on a user's device. Its interface has been designed to be both intuitive and powerful, providing easy access to the features users need most. • LEAP was created to provide access to functionality in a modern, intuitive web application that meets the expectations of today's users. LEAP uses the same underlying database and business logic shared by all Polaris products, so there is no need to migrate any data. The LP AP architecture provides a stable, modern application platform for delivering Patron Services and Circulation functionality. • LEAP provides a new view into the Polaris data and business logic. It is not a direct replacement for the Polaris ILS. Unlike the Polaris Staff Client, LEAP works as well on a mobile device (tablet) as it does traditional computers. Since LEAP is accessed through a web browser there is no need to update client software or connect using Terminal Services. • LEAP is installed at the server level — meaning it will be available for use by the entire library system or consortium. Since LEAP coexists with the Polaris ILS software and can be used interchangeably, each library or user can decide whether or not LEAP is appropriate for a particular workflow. • LEAP is browser -based and will run under any modern browser that uses HTML 5 Availability Provisional general release date for LEAP is October 10, 2014 Execution Copy 7/9/14 City of Fort Worth VPC Services Agreement Page 29 of 58 POLARIS Schedule D Cost Summary for Implementation Phase and Year 1 of Initial Term Polaris ILS Software Licenses, Custom Programming, VPC Services/Environment and Failover/Disaster Recovery Polaris® ILS Server/Client Software Includes: • The Polaris ILS Database • All Polaris ILS Software as described in Schedule C • System Reports • eCommerce through PAC (using either Payflow Link or Payments Gateway Secure Web Pay) • 2nd instance of Polaris ILS Server Software for COMMRES • Staff Client Licenses x 450 • Unlimited PAC access • Polaris R RFID Conversion Utility (Unlimited License) • Client Deployment Tool Custom Programing — One (1) Development Project (refer to Schedule I) Custom Reports — Day 1 (refer to Schedule I) PAC Customization Five (5) additional hours Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Services & Environment Failover/Disaster Recovery Sub -Total: Cost $313,713.00 $5,000.00 $12,000.00 $1,000.00 $40,000.00 $25,000.00 $396,713.00 Execution Copy 7/9/14 City of Fort Worth VPC Services Agreement Page 30 of 58 POLARIS Schedule D Cost Summary for Implementation Phase and Year 1 of Initial Term - continued Polaris Services Data Extraction Data Migration Authority Control, RDA, FRBR and Lexile Accelerated Reader Processing Implementation Training Services PAC Branding Remote Installation of LEAP Annual Escrow Services Sub -Total: Subscription Services Integration with Overdrive: Annual Subscription Service — initial cost includes implementation service charge.

The data center is a Tier-2 facility (ANSI/TIA-942 Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers) with an excellent track record for reliability that provides backup power, and redundant HVAC and network services. Internet service to the Data Center is provided via redundant ISPs utilizing diverse fiber connections into the facility with dynamic re-routing of data if network links are interrupted. The Data Center environment includes: • 7x24x365 on -site security personnel and video surveillance • Biometric palm scanners at all facility entrances • Card access control at all interior and exterior doors • Offices/common areas isolated from the data center • AC power installed to order with N+1 redundancy • Backup UPS and generators with refueling capabilities for consistent power supply • Full data -grade HVAC system with N+1 redundancy with 136 tons of cooling active • Fire protection with early -warning VESDA fire detection system • FM-200 and CO2 fire suppression system • Regular system testing and servicing • Customer IT infrastructure monitored by two redundant NOCs (Andover and India), staffed 7x24x365 • Regular facilities monitoring for all critical electrical components, environmental systems, and security For Virtual Private Cloud service, Polaris owns and operates the servers utilized to store data and deliver service from the Data Center Polaris employs network firewalls and anti -virus protection for the service platform. To protect data during network transmission, communications between the LIBRARY's Polaris client workstations and the VPC Data Center are encrypted via native Remote Desktop encryption and SSL is used to encrypt the Patron Account section of the Polaris PowerPAC. Third -party hardware maintenance providers do not have access to the servers or backup devices without Polaris advance approval and supervision • Requirements: Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) client version 6.1 or higher (RDP higher); Reliable network connectivity with adequate bandwidth (estimated concurrent RDC user) and low end -to -end network latency between Windows Terminal Server; protocol/version 7 or 20Kbps-30Kbps per the workstation and USERNAME Convention and PASSWORD Complexity Access to Virtual Private Cloud Polaris requires a two -stage logon. A user must first logon to the Terminal Server and then must logon to the Polaris application Usernames for Terminal Server and Polaris user accounts must consist of at least 8 characters. Polaris recommends that the usernames Execution Copy 7/9/14 City of Fort Worth VPC Services Agreement Page 35 of 58 POLARIS Schedule F Virtual Private Cloud Environment - continued include a user-friendly prefix that makes the username unique to the system or branch. For example, a satisfactory username convention for Public Library System could be p1sXXXXX (i.e. plscircl, plscat07, etc.). Passwords must be complex. At a minimum, passwords must consist of at least 8 characters including at least one upper or lower case letter and at least one number or special character, and cannot include the library name or username. Polaris strongly recommends that common words should not be used as the password root. Passwords must be set to expire within a minimum of 180 days. User Manaizement The LIBRARY, through the Polaris System Administrator, will be responsible for performing Active Directory and Polaris user management (add, change delete). Dedicated Virtual Private Cloud Service The Polaris Dedicated Virtual Private Cloud Service provides a fully managed application including data center networking and firewall management, Polaris server administration, anti -virus and backup service. Only Polaris server administrators have direct login and administrative access to the backend servers, software and databases supporting the Polaris systems and application. Virtual Private Cloud Maintenance Polaris reserves the right to perform periodic maintenance on the Virtual Private Cloud servers and service platform Scheduled weekly maintenance windows will occur every Monday and Thursday between 2:OOAM ET and 4:OOAM ET Windows Updates and other service platform updates that may be applied sometimes require device reboots or restarts, and therefore, temporary service outages may be experienced during these windows. Scheduled maintenance windows for server, firewall and network replacement or repair will occur Thursday's between the hours of 4:OOAM ET and 7:OOAM ET Unscheduled emergency maintenance might need to be performed at any time. When emergency maintenance is required, Polaris will notify the LIBRARY and work with the LIBRARY to minimize any potential service interruptions.

For a library with 400 staff users, that library should expect the bandwidth to be about 1500 kilobits per second - which is approximately 1.5 Megabits per second. The following chart shows the bandwidth for an existing Virtual Private Cloud customer with the same number of available concurrent logms (400) and this is total bandwidth (including PAC traffic).

The optimal resolution is 1024 x 768. Remote Deskton Services (Terminal Services) Remote Desktop Services works by allowing individual applications to run on a server, rather than on the user's workstation Remote Desktop Services simply sends screen images to the user s machine, and the user's machine in turn sends keystrokes and mouse movements back to the server. By doing this Remote Desktop Services allows clients to run applications that they might otherwise not have the hardware or bandwidth to support. The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) has been designed and optimized to give users a good application experience over low -bandwidth connections Because only keyboard mouse and screen drawing information is sent over the network, a quality user experience can be attained under very low -bandwidth conditions. The client access device can either be a full rich Windows personal computer, or a thin client. Execution Copy 7/9/14 City of Fort Worth VPC Services Agreement Page 38 of 58 POLARIS Schedule F.2 Failover/Disaster Recovery Failover/Disaster Recovery The failover SaaS hosting facility is located in Oakland, CA The proposed failover solution would use a VMWare industry standard software package called Site Recovery Manager (SRM). This solution would continuously replicate the CITY's servers to a secondary datacenter location The servers for the CITY, primary and secondary will be hosted in a VMWare virtualized hosting environment within each data center providing local resiliency via network and storage redundancy, in conjunction with geographic failover capability. SRM allows for the replication of the CITY's primary servers to the secondary location with a 15 minute RPO (Recovery Point Objective) - meaning the recovery point would be as much as 15 minutes behind the time of the disaster. The solution is not a hot -standby solution and would require action by Polaris technical staff to enable the secondary environment once the decision to fail to the second site is declared. This is to ensure data consistency of the environment and that failovers only occur during the time of a disaster. Even though activation of the secondary environment requires action to bring it online, this is not a cold start solution since the virtual space for the servers required is already allocated, the CITY's data is synchronized to the most recent fifteen (15) minutes, and those servers not being actively synchronized will be online. Once a disaster is declared a few configuration changes to the environment are then required to make the secondary system the active and accessible node, including a DNS change to point to the new IP address. When the primary environment is returned to operation, SRM would facilitate the synchronization back to the original location systematically. The return to operation at the primary location will require a brief interruption of service and can be scheduled to minimize impact on the LIBRARY, however, Internet delegation of DNS is required to fail back, thus there may be a delay in access of the environment until this occurs. The LIBRARY will have independent network and server environments (not a shared Active Directory and/or SQL solution). With this environment, Polaris is able to provide a higher level of redundancy, availability, and overall uptime to the LIBRARY. Execution Copy 7/9/14 City of Fort Worth VPC Services Agreement Page 39 of 58 POLARIS Schedule G Acceptance Tests 1.

Authorize the execution of an Agreement with GIS Information Systems, Inc. d/b/a Polaris Library Systems, for the purchase of a Next Generation Integrated Library System for the Fort Worth Library for an implementation cost not to exceed the amount of $250,290.00 and annual maintenance service for four years not to exceed the amount of $175,000.00 per year; 2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance to appropriate up to the amount of $250,290.00 in the Special Revenue Fund; 3. Authorize a transfer of up to the amount of $250,290.00 from the Special Revenue Fund to the General Fund; and 4. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriation in the General Fund up to the amount of $250,290.00. DISCUSSION: The Integrated Library System (ILS) manages major aspects of library operations, including the online catalog, customer accounts, check-out and check -in, fines and overdue materials, holdings information and management statistics. The current ILS is almost 10 years old (M&C C-20460, December 21, 2004) and does not support many of the personalization and social networking features today's library customers expect or the productivity features required for efficient staff operations. Interlocal Agreements allow the Library to provide library system services to Benbrook, Burleson, Haltom City, Keller, Richland Hills and Watagua. Collectively the group is known as the MetrOPAC. This Agreement was first established in 1986 (M&C C-9463). The Fort Worth Library (FWL) released a Request for Proposals for a Next Generation Integrated Library System and Related Systems and Services on December 23, 2013. Six vendors submitted proposals. A team comprised of Library customers, MetrOPAC staff and Library and IT Solutions staff conducted a thorough evaluation of each proposal. Based on their evaluation, the FWL recommends entering into an Agreement with GIS Information Systems, Inc. d/b/a Polaris Library Systems (Polaris). The Polaris system offers the best value for the cost. Its mix of features and functions, its existing services and Polaris' vision for development are best suited to the FWL's needs. The Polaris system hip://www.fortworthg9v.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?M= 200058(counci I... 7/22/2014 M&C Review Page 2 of 3 will improve customers' online experiences, allowing full self service library card registration, reader reviews, seamless e-resource integration, and easy creation and maintenance of community o rganization files. By having Polaris host the system off site, the City avoids the costs of hardware purchase and support and is assured that proper system maintenance, upgrades and disaster recovery procedures are followed. The Polaris Agreement will allow the FWL to continue providing automated library services for its client libraries, MetrOPAC. Funding to acquire the new system is available from a Special Revenue Fund established by M&C G- 7311, November 3, 1987, to finance future upgrades to the FWL automated system without affecting the General Fund. All revenue from buy -in and annual maintenance received from the client libraries is deposited into this Special Revenue Fund. M/WBE OFFICE - A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier o pportunities are negligible. AGREEMENT TERMS - This Agreement consists of an Implementation Phase, which begins upon execution of the Agreement and continues until the City's acceptance date of the new system. The Agreement will then have an initial term of five years starting on the acceptance date. Implementation costs for the new ILS will not exceed the amount of $250,290.00 and includes the first year of maintenance costs after the acceptance date The maintenance costs for each of the subsequent four years will not exceed the amount of $175,000.00 annually. ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE ORDER - An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager in the amount up to $50,000.00 and does not require specific City Council approval as long as sufficient funds have been appropriated. RENEWAL OPTIONS - After the initial term, the Agreement may be renewed for additional one-year terms at the City s discretion. Rate increases associated with subsequent one-year renewals will be n o greater than four percent or the Consumer Price Index, whichever is less. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, in the Special Revenue Fund and the General Fund, TO Fund/Account/Centers 21 GRO3 467092 084840010000 2.1 GRO3 538070 084840010000 3&4) GG01 472003 0841020 4) GG01 531180 0841020 4) GG01 531200 0841020 4) GG01 539120 0841020 $250290.00 $250.290 00 $250.290.00 $5,000.00 65.000.00 $240,290.00 FROM Fund/Account/Centers 1 GRO3 538070 084840010000 Submitted for City Manager's Office bv: Charles Daniels (6199) Originating Department Head: Gleniece Robinson (7706) Additional Information Contact: Sheila Scullock (7708) $250.290 00 http://www.fortworthgov.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=20005&council... 7/22/2014 M&C Review Page 3 of 3 ATTACHMENTS REC2and3- 84FY14LIBRARYILS AO2014 .docx REC4 - 84FY14LIBRARYILS AO2014 .docx http://www.fortworthgov.org/council_packet/mc_review.asp?ID=20005&council... 7/22/2014
