Abstract With the ’go live’ of swisscovery, Swiss libraries have taken a big step into the future. Combining the migration of six local data sets with the creation of a national network and the independent library service provider SLSP (Swiss Library Service Platform) within a single project was a bold goal that was reached on 7 December 2020. Looking back on the three years of implementation (2018–2020), which followed the conception phase of 2015–2017, we identify and discuss the key success factors, hurdles that were faced, and challenges still to be met. While some of these elements are found on the technical level, others refer to business and management aspects. Indeed, such projects are always a combination of technological, economical, and human factors.
