First contract for new company name: epixtech, inc., formerly Ameritech Library Services,
announced its first contract under the company’s new name, epixtech, inc., with Barrington Area Library (Barrington) in Barrington, Illinois. Barrington purchased the Horizon system, the
Resource Sharing System (RSS), WebPAC and TeleCirc II.
Toronto District School Board (TDSB) has selected epixtech as its library automation
vendor. TDSB is the third largest school district in North America serving 330,000 students, in 565 schools with up to 2000 simultaneous users.
The choice of epixtech as the school district’s automation vendor will also make it easier for
students to move between TDSB libraries and the Toronto Public Library System. Toronto Public Library, with an annual circulation of more than 28 million, has recently completed installation of an epixtech’s library automation system at all 98 of its branches.
