Atlanta, GA, March 19, 2025: Equinox Open Library Initiative, a trusted leader in open source technology development and support for libraries, is pleased to announce that Equinox will be presenting at the Electronic Resources and Libraries (ER&L) 20th Annual Library Conference in Austin, Texas. ER&L will run from March 23 through March 26, 2025. Full details about the upcoming conference can be found here: https://electroniclibrarian.org/.
Equinox staff members Stephanie Leary, Front End Developer, and Andrea Buntz Neiman, Project Manager for Software Development, will present, “Growing CORAL: An Open Source Community for Electronic Resources Management,” on Wednesday, March 26, 2025 at 1:30pm CST.
“This CORAL update is a huge step forward in usability, accessibility, and internationalization,” said Stephanie Leary, Front End Developer at Equinox. “We’ve also made it much easier for newer developers to join the project to keep moving CORAL forward. We will present the changes and updates to CORAL, and demonstrate how other open source projects can approach similar issues.”
The CORAL community released two CORAL ERM updates in 2024 (2024.04 and 2024.10), both featuring significant contributions from Equinox. An additional update to the CORAL Resources module is anticipated in 2025.
“Equinox is proud of the work we have done alongside the CORAL community,” said Andrea Buntz Neiman, Project Manager for Software Development at Equinox. “We are looking forward to highlighting these ongoing efforts at ER&L.”
