INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
Date: 12/01/2023
To: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
Through: Ron Burton, City Manager
From: Steven Williams, Library Director
RE: PR 23504 Renew Library Contract with SirsiDynix
Introduction:
The intent of this Agenda Item is to seek the City Council's approval for the City Manager to authorize the
fifth-year (fourth renewal) contract with SirsiDynix of Minneapolis, MN for the Integrated Library System
(ILS) at the Port Arthur Public Library in the amount of$18,167.03. Funds are available in account 001-27-
071-5470-00-20-000.
Background:
Pursuant to Resolution No. 19-493, the City of Port Arthur entered into a one-year contract with SirsiDynix,
with an option to renew for four (4) additional one-year terms. The library has been using the ILS from
SirsiDynix for 12 years and continuing with this ILS will allow the library operations to continue without
major disruptions. It is an ILS that the library staff is familiar with which contributes to better productivity
and customer service. Finally, choosing another ILS provider will include costly migration fees.
Budget Impact:
Funds in the amount of$18,167.03 will be used from account 001-27-071-5470-00-20-000.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that City Council approve the City Manager to authorize the fifth-year(fourth renewal)
contract with SirsiDynix of Minneapolis, MN and remain with our current ILS provider.
