We started using ABLE about five years ago. Works better and is more stable but is still a pain in the neck at times. Our bindery is Houchen (they are based in Nebraska).

Subject: [SERIALST] LARS/Bindery Software
We are still using the LARS software to communicate data regarding our soon-to-be bound journals to our bindery.
As you might imagine, we have to keep a dedicated PC running WIndows 7 because LARS is so old it will not run on Windows
10.
Has anyone built a better system? Does anyone else still use LARS?
We are in the midst of migrating to Alma, has anyone developed a bindery data export using the API?
Would love to hear what you all are doing.
Thanks,
Jen Holman
