In various resources from Ex Libris there is reference to a requirement that each library have two staff members become certified in Alma in order to Go Live, make certain changes in the system, etc. However, this was designed for individual sites to be able to configure the system locally and not require Ex Libris support for every change. Thus, as one of the many benefits of a shared system, it is not required that each library have two staff certified in Alma. PASCAL staff will work in this capacity for any library needing this support, but especially the smaller ones. Throughout the migration process there will be opportunities for staff who are interested to go through the 4-week online training program culminating in the certification exam.
