Candice Hope, Systems Librarian at Payson City Library, recently commented on the implementation:

We decided to look into Aspen Discovery for our library when we saw how many different libraries were jumping on the bandwagon. We thought if it was this popular then we needed it too! We have been working with Bywater Solutions for over five years now, so we knew the implementation process would be smooth and painless. Morgan was there through every step of the way. If we needed her, she was always there with a smile. One of my favorite things about Bywater Solutions is they will meet you at your skill level. If you need extra help, they will give you patience. If you want to go off and do your own thing, they will step in when you mess up and fix it."
