[Web4lib] Koha Library Program

[Stacy Konkiel]

We're using Koha in our library and I can say that for small libraries, it
does the job pretty well.  The version that we're using, which is the
second-to-last version that has been put out, still has a few bugs that you
have to work around in the system.  However, these bugs don't affect the
functionality of the check-in/check-out procedure too much, they really only
have to do with adding bibliographies and such.  However, I hear that the
latest version is free of most of these bugs and works even better than the
version we're using.

If you're curious (or if anyone else would like) I can send out a document
that the previous library coordinator used, which lists "workarounds" for
the various glitches.


Be well,
Stacy Konkiel
