    Switching to Missouri Evergreen has offered so much to our patrons - we have more options than our library knows what to do with and there is still more to discover.

    Equinox Open Library Initiative hosts Evergreen for the SCLENDS library consortium. Their technical support has been both prompt, responsive, and professional in reacting to our support requests during COVID-19.

    They have been a valuable consortium partner in meeting the needs of the member libraries and their patrons.

    I have really enjoyed working with the migration team at Equinox. They have been very helpful and supportive – a fantastic group of people to work with. It was because of them that the transition to Missouri Evergreen has been smooth and painless!

    Working with Equinox was great! They were able to migrate our entire consortium with no down time during working hours.

    The Equinox team went the extra mile in helping Missouri Evergreen.
