Subject: [ARIE-L] Odyssey test please

Our Ariel system died, so I decided to try Odyssey.   Can someone please send 
me a test page to 128.163.205.8 and then contact me to confirm that it was 
sent.  (Not sure if the correct port has been opened by our IT and they won't 
budge until I try a test.)   If I need to provide any additional information or 
do something differently, please let me know:)

Thanks so much,
Theresa

We made the change from Ariel to Relais last January.  Relais has the option to 
send attachments or post to we web.  The post to web option is what we use for 
our end users so the file size is never an issue with this option.  With 
Relais, we can also send to Ariel workstations and receive Ariel transmissions. 
 This way we can still communicate with other libraries who use Ariel.

Thank you,

Today...I am going to work on setting up a new system (Windows 7) and Ariel 
4.1.(1?).

I work in Systems and not ILL so every three years I read up on the virtues of 
patience just for this event.



As for alternatives, we use ILLIAD and Odyssey too!  I have spoken to our 
Resource Sharing manager and all I can get her to say is they will "consider 
dropping Ariel...next time".



So my question is...are many of you using all three or are you making an either 
or choice?



Thank you.



- Steve

We continue to use Ariel vs. Odyssey standalone because Ariel allows us to post 
articles to our web server and automatically notifies the email addressee to 
that effect.  This allows us to scan articles of large file size without having 
to deal with attachment size limits.  Certainly Ariel is unsolvably quirky, but 
it continues to work acceptably for us.  We still use Windows XP and Ariel 3.4.

                  We've been using Odyssey and ILLiad for several years with 
good results. Since the Odyssey component is free, I'm a little puzzled by the 
number of libraries still using Ariel, given the lack of vendor support - it 
seems like the vendor abandoned it some time ago. The latest hurdle here has 
been getting a scanner to work with both Ariel and Windows 7, and I really hate 
to pour any more hours into Ariel.

I have been having issues with Ariel for a while, the lasted being that the 
send to function is not working.  After months of working with IT we just 
cannot figure out what is wrong...  That and the fact that Ariel has not been 
updated in a very long time has lead me to consider alternatives.



What other Ariel-type products are people using and why?



We currently recieve 95% of our requests via Docline and the other 5% via OCLC. 
 I need to do more research but was initially thinking of pairing Odyssey and 
Illiad.  Am I headed in the right direction or am I way off base?



Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
