MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL ACTION:_40&dt2v�
AGENDA REPORT -
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jennifer Mellon, Administrative Services Manag
DATE: March 9, 2011 (CC meeting of March 16, 2011)
SUBJECT: Consider Change in Authorization for the City Manager to Sign an
Agreement with Library Systems and Services (LSSI) for Polaris
Integrated Library System (ILS) Corporation Software as an Addendum
to the LSSI Agreement with the City of Moorpark
BACKGROUND
On January 19, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution 2011-2990, amending the FY
2010-11 Budget to appropriate $7,800 from the Library Services Fund Balance for the
migration of the Integrated Library System (ILS) software from Sirsi Dynix Horizon to
Polaris 4.0, and authorized the City Manager to sign the Agreement with Polaris
Corporation for the ILS software, subject to final language approval by the City Manager
and City Attorney. On July 12, 2010 Council approved Amendment 4, the new Scope of
Work attachment to the LSSI Agreement, which states that LSSI shall, "Recommend plans
to procure, install, and support sufficient hardware, software, network,telecommunications
and other resources necessary to support the Library's mission" and, "Provide
maintenance support for library computer software associated with the automation system
and proprietary library systems and ensure that those systems operate effectively."When
the City began operation of the Library, LSSI supported libraries used Sirsi ILS software
and are now migrating to Polaris due to the enhancements Polaris can provide as well as
the discontinuance of support for the Sirsi Horizon software.
DISCUSSION
Originally, staff presented a Council Item with the misunderstanding that an agreement
would be entered into with Polaris for the I LS Software; however,that is not the case. LSSI
will provide and maintain the Polaris ILS solution,just as they have done with the Sirsi ILS
solution per their present Agreement with the City. Attached to this report is a copy of a
proposed Agreement for ILS Hosted Services between City of Moorpark and LSSI, which
will be revised and incorporated as an Addendum to the current Agreement with LSSI and
approved by the City Manager. What is being proposed is for the City Council to rescind its
prior direction for the City Manager to sign an Agreement with Polaris Corporation for the

ILS software, and approve the City Manager to sign an Addendum to the Agreement
between City of Moorpark and LSSI to incorporate ILS Hosted Services, subject to final
language approval by the City Manager and City Attorney.
FISCAL IMPACT
The not to exceed amount of $15,000 for the Polaris Integrated Library System software
migration and maintenance has not changed, and a budget amendment was approved at
the January 19 City Council meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
1) Rescind City Council January 19, 2011, approval for the City Manager to sign an
Agreement with Polaris Corporation for the ILS software; and
2) Authorize the City Manager to sign an Addendum to the Agreement between City of
Moorpark and LSSI to incorporate ILS Hosted Services, subject to final language
approval by the City Manager and City Attorney.
