Koha

Koha - Complete library system

'Koha' is a complete library system that covers all aspects of library operation. It is in use at libraries, universities, and non-profits. Features include a simple and clear interface, searches that can be customized according to field, reading lists for readers (particularly useful for homebound users but can be disabled for security), full acquisition information including pricing with currency conversion and budgeting information, and the ability to catalogue websites as items or link them to bibliographies. Koha meets international records and cataloging standards MARC and Z39.50.
