On Monday, March 4, CEO Lynn Bailey, along with Tania Hewes Fersenheim from MIT Libraries, Jesse Koennecke from Cornell Universiy, Andrew Nagy from EBSCO, and Kevin Kidd from Wentworth Institute of Technology, will be speaking on “Pioneering new models for Library/Vendor Partnerships with the FOLIO project” at the Electronic Resources and Libraries 14th Annual Conference.
Index Data co-founder Sebastian Hammer is joined by Michael Winkler (managing director, OLE partners) and Christopher Spalding (vice president of open source platforms and communities, EBSCO) for a Year-in-Review webinar of the FOLIO Project. Registration is open for the live webinar on Wednesday, January 9, 2019, at 11:00am Eastern U.S. time. If the webinar is full – and to watch the recording after Wednesday – go to the Open Library Foundation YouTube channel.
Last year’s Year-in-Review is one of the project’s most watched videos, and this year promises to be the same.
As the calendar turned to a new year, we took the opportunity to reflect on the state of FOLIO today.
The Index Data team members are excited to have jumpstarted this open source effort, and the numbers tell a story of a growing and highly engaged community.
To get beyond the numbers, we asked some of the project leaders to share their thoughts on where FOLIO is today and where it’s going.

2017 was a year of remarkable progress for FOLIO, and we have good reasons to believe that 2018 will be even more exciting! Index Data is eager to engage with the community and be at the forefront of welcoming new participants to the FOLIO project.
