Chris,<br><br>After a bit of investigation, it is not yet clear whether use of the FulfILLment connector system will require that Koha be NCIP compliant. While that reduces its urgency, I believe NCIP compliance is nonetheless important for Koha in the long run. NEKLS would tentatively be willing to be one partner in an NCIP development project, provided that we gain some assurance from our support vendor (PTFS) that the NCIP enhancement would be made available to their customers, whether using community Koha (such as NEKLS) or LLEK, as well as the entire Koha community.<br>

I agree adding NCIP support would be great, and there was/is a project<br>
called openncip that was set up to do just that.<br>
So speaking as one of the members of the community, are you willing to<br>
sponsor some work on it ? :-)<br>
<br>
Maybe you can get together some like minded libraries, write up an<br>
enhancement request and then get someone to work on it.<br>
