This document discusses legacy library systems and the benefits of migrating to a library services platform (LSP). It defines legacy systems as those based on outdated technologies that cannot meet new requirements or allow for growth. Most current library systems fall into this category. An LSP is described as a new approach that delivers all library management, administration, and user services through a single, unified experience using microservices and other modern architectures. Key benefits of an LSP include scalability, interoperability, reduced costs, and enabling innovation to support future library trends.
