It is with a sense of pride that Horowhenua Library Trust launched its new Koha library management system late last week, the public face of which is the new website: <a href="http://www.library.org.nz/">www.library.org.nz. </a><br>
<br>The new site is built on the Koha 3.2 Alpha2 release and the work was led by Chris Cormack from <a href="http://www.catalyst.net.nz/">Catalyst IT</a>. The site features the work of <a href="http://kete.library.org.nz/site/topics/show/43-wendy-hodder">Wendy Hodder</a>, renowned children's book
illustrator and muralist. The site development was carried out by the team at <a href="http://katipo.co.nz/">Katipo</a> Communications and incorporates digital content from a Library Trust <a href="http://kete.net.nz/">Kete</a>, an open source digital library application developed by Walter McGinnis at Katipo for the Library Trust. <br>
<br>
Koha is an open source library management system originally developed by
Horowhenua Library Trust in New Zealand in 1999. The Trust would like to acknowledge and thank the many libraries and developers
from around the world who have contributed to Koha 3.2. <br><br>For more information abut Koha visit: <a href="http://www.koha-community.org">www.koha-community.org</a><br> <br>-- <br>Joann Ransom RLIANZA<br>Head of Libraries,<br>
