ZING implementations

This document outlines the implementation of ZING in the bibliographic landscape across the Netherlands, Germany, and France. It details how ZING interfaces with various local bibliographic systems such as CBS and LBS, and its role in shared cataloging through the iPort portal. Key features include retrieval of bibliographic records, broadcast searching, and ranking of holdings based on availability and optional pricing. The benefits of transitioning from TOLK to ZING are discussed, highlighting cost savings in maintenance and testing.
