| * Download & run ReadingRecord for yourself. Note: This is not a task to be undertaken lightly. ReadingRecord was designed to be a hosted solution, meaning that a single site could host many libraries - like the Westminster Public Library has done for years. As such, it requires some expertise to get up & running. In particular, familiarity with the LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL & PHP) is essential. I am working on documentation, but it will take time to produce something usable. | * Download & run ReadingRecord for yourself. Note: This is not a task to be undertaken lightly.

| * Join an organization already hosting ReadingRecord. My hope (and vision) is that some larger libraries will elect to host ReadingRecord for their state/region, as the Westminster Public Library has done for Colorado since 2008. Depending on the situation, I may donate my time or charge a modest fee to help these hosting sites get ReadingRecord up and running. If your organization is interested in hosting ReadingRecord for your state/region, please [[lbylnxgek@gmail.com|contact me]]. | * Join an organization already hosting ReadingRecord.

| - | * Contract with me to host ReadingRecord for your library. I charge a yearly fee of $150 to cover the cost of setup, hosting, Internet connectivity and to (hopefully) inspire me to develop new features. If your library cannot afford this fee, contact me & we'll haggle. ;-) | + | * Contract with me to host ReadingRecord for your library.
