Virtualization or Multi-Seat Computing Options for Public Libraries

[Langlois, Rachel]

Hello wonderful Web4Lib,

We are preparing budget proposals for changes in management of our public access computers and are looking at both virtualization (we are a Microsoft shop) and multi-seat computing (Userful).  Our County IT department wants us to get information from comparable library systems.

Specifically, do you know of any library systems who have implemented virtualization as a solution for public access computers?
Do you know any library systems who have implemented Userful or some other multi-seat option?
We are specifically hoping to find systems who might have implemented something along these lines more than a year ago, so that we could get comparative costs for first-year implementation versus continuing costs.

Any help is most appreciated!

v/r,

Rachel S. Langlois
