“Koha is the first open source integrated library system … the Koha system is a full catalogue, OPAC, circulation and acquisitions system.”
I’m not an expert in OPAC systems, so I leave it to the librarians to judge how full-featured this software is, though on the surface it seems fairly mature. I’m posting this, though, as just another example of how wide the range of open source projects has become. It wasn’t that long ago that people (usually in an attempt to maginalize their effects as part of a FUD campaign) would characterize open source projects as focusing on only those types of programs of interest to the geeks who could build them. There’s probably always going to be a bit of that at play, but a quick glance at, for instance, sourceforge projects by intended audience shows just how broadly the phenomenom has spread. – SWL

How can I find out more about the OPAC?
