LIAS — Library Automation with an Integrated Design

Through a single computerized system, the Libraries Information Access System (LIAS) provides integrated access to a range of information functions in support of services at all libraries of the Pennsylvania State University. It supports both academic and administrative needs. Its design facilitates access to all components through a common terminal. In development since 1975 by the University Libraries, LIAS is a fully interactive system, providing immediate information about collections and transactions.
