Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Open Source

Alicia Cornelio and I attended this meeting specifically to hear about Koha, an open source integrated library sytem we are considering for the Goodwin Library. Joshua Ferraro of LibLime talked about open source integrated library systems, specifically Koha and Evergreen, and about his company, LibLime, which provides support and/or hosting for libraries who choose open source ILSs and can’t or don’t want to rely exclusively on in-house talent. The implementations of Koha that Joshua showed us were simply stunning. (Here’s one; here’s another, and another; and another [!!!]. Go play with them now. I’ll understand if you don’t come back.)
