Abstract

An essential goal of library informatics is to create open-source systems through community collaboration. Primary examples of open solution Integrated Library Systems, such as KOHA, Evergreen, or the Open Library Environment (Kuali OLE), have been born out of this notion. Since 2016, the librarian and developer professional communities have been working together to take this framework to a higher level. Building on learnings from prior system developments, a new modular, micro-service based platform was created. The platform was named FOLIO, short for ’The Future of Libraries is Open’, to reflect its open and flexible nature. Today, FOLIO platform and its relevant modules are widely used by a number of medium-sized and national libraries (e.g. the Italian National Library in Florence). The objectives of the Hungarian National Library Platform (HNLP) development, launched in 2016, are very much in alignment with the above: to re-conceptualise services offered by national libraries, to explore new ways of collaboration, to revolutionise common catalogue and interlibrary loan, and to make entity-based data connections available beyond the world outside libraries through integration to the Hungarian National Namespace. And first and foremost, to offer the most advanced services and state-of-the-art IT technology to library users. The National Széchényi Library Hungary has been part of the FOLIO community since its inception, to have a stake in its strategic direction and to benefit from the developments taking place internationally. Our long-term vision is to enable seamless module compatibility between the two systems so that libraries can use a flexible configuration that best serves their needs. The main pillars of the development are identical for both FOLIO and HNLP: (i) an entity-based data model, (ii) the creation of a meaning-based integrated architecture through modularity for any number of institutions and any institutional hierarchy, and (iii) the free configurability of workflows across the system / flexible workflow design. Where are HNLP, FOLIO and ReShare, the major collaborative module for interlibrary loan of the latter on this path right now? What solutions are provided for the basic pillars, and what objectives are still to be achieved?
