Case Study: Royal College of Physicians streamlines library management with Soutron

Royal College of Physicians Use Soutron for Library Management Solution

The Royal College of Physicians (RCP), the leading professional body for physicians in the UK and internationally, needed to replace an ageing library solution that was becoming difficult to administer and offered limited control over the OPAC and user permissions. RCP also wanted to replace its standalone Inter Library Loans system, making Soutron’s library management solution a strong fit.

Soutron implemented a flexible, fully supported library management system with granular security controls, OPAC flexibility, saved searches, e-journal linking, historic media uploads, and integrated Inter Library Loans functionality. The RCP has used Soutron for over six years and reported strong results, including improved day-to-day use, praised UK-based support, smooth upgrades that retain customisations, and excellent training.
