Reflection and experiences
• One work-flow for several different types of orders
• All digital road – fewer manual steps
• Faster – less time collecting books, patrons gets the book faster
• Easy for everyone in the library to follow the orders step by step
• 5 persons can do the work that 10 persons did before
• Competence development of technical skills in the work force
• Viola is connected to the invoice-system
• Satisfied customers (library’s and patrons)

The Development
• Developers in the library working closely together
with librarians that know the functionality
• Thoroughly documented requirements and
workflows
• Work with “user stories” has been key in the
collaborative work
• Intention is to release it as open source

User stories – the start of a conversation
As a fetcher of books, I want to be able to print out slips to put in the
books that i have found in the shelves
• Not a requirement as much as a starting point for conversation
• Easy to write and prioritize
• Easier to follow progress
• Conversation splits the User story into tasks and Definition of Done
