What is Free Open Source Software
Free Open-source software (OSS) is computer software for which the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided under a software license that meets the Open Source Definition or that is in the public domain. This permits users to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. It is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner.

searching and issuing of items.● Automation of alerts to remind patrons and staff about, for example,
overdue items or arrival of new items.● Reduced time of processing of library items, due to MARC and z39.50
compatibility. ● Online supervision becomes possible, reducing the line management
responsibilities of senior staff.● Library management becomes easier through automated collection of
data.● Through the acquisition module budgets can be more effectively
managed.● Koha brings together library users and staff, as both can see various
aspects of the system and can work together more effectively to achieve each user's goals.
