by vinod mishra 15 Jun '15

15 Jun '15

Dear All, Few days back i put a online survey form for small survey regarding change/migration from existing Library management software to other open source software. The result indicates most of the people migrated to Koha and shifted from Libsys and other ILMS. Hence the result is very clear indicative of strength of Koha open source ILMS, so libraries who are interested for such migrations are suggested to look into the option of Koha. Please click the link below for result of the survey and feel free to contact for implementation of the Open source software Koha, Newgenlib etc. in your libraries http://mishravk.com/2015/06/result-of-survey-regarding-migration-of-library… -- *With Regards,Vinod Kumar Mishra,Assistant Librarian,Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL),* *NIT Rourkela,* *Sundergadh-769008,* *Odisha,* *India.* *Mob:91+9439420860* *Website: http://mishravk.com/ <http://mishravk.com/>* -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
