Thanks for quick answers, We need such articles and comparison tests as KOHA developers and users. I'd like to ask another question. Is there any globally accepted check list for buying an ILS? Librarians in Turkey shared some NISO documents but from year 2002, hence it doesn't cover all new functionalities. Thanks Mengü On 17-11-2015 04:21, LibrarySuva wrote:

Salvete!
One of our Koha candidate customer want from us some articles about comparion of Koha with other ILS systems. I googled but could not find a technical comparision article.
If you know such information and share, I'll be very appreciate for that.
This is a little older, but I am still happy with it.

They were cited in Nigeria recently in
The Use and Application of Open Source Integrated Library System in Academic Libraries in Nigeria: Koha Example
so if your customer is an academic customer *definitely* look at the stuff from KohaCon. It will prove most useful. :)
Hope this helped, Brooke _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
