Earlier in this blog I have introduced a website devoted to Koha community. However, there are more players on the open source ILS scene. So to be "fair and balanced" here are links to couple of other major contributors. First, Liblime. It calls itself a "leader in open source solutions for libraries." It certainly plays a leading role in the field of customization of Koha. Then there is Evergreen, a different kind of open source ILS.
These are but a few representative websites that show growing presence of open source automation in library services today. Will it completely replace the proprietary systems? Probably not, but its very presence broadens the choices and brings necessary changes (and questions) to the table.
