Hello Everyone,

We’re swiftly approaching a major milestone for FLVC Library Services and for all state college and state university libraries! July 13, 2026, will be the fifth anniversary of “Go Live!” for the Alma library services platform and the Primo discovery tool.

An Integrated Library System migration is always a daunting task, but completing an ILS migration at the scale of a library consortia as large and complex as FLVC and our member libraries is an exercise in extraordinary complexity! Nonetheless, thanks to the hard work of many people across all FCS and SUS libraries, and in collaboration with FLVC staff, we completed the migration to Alma and Primo in only 15 months, culminating with a successful go-live, as planned, on July 13, 2021.
