Hello, all. I have been following the discourse about LibLime on here with interest, as we will be searching a vendor for our selected system (which is Koha, of course). However, I had read little from those who actually use LibLime as a vendor. Since there are so many out there I assumed I was missing something.<br>
<br>On a recent visit to a library consortium in Texas that uses LibLime, the director of that system told me about a LibLime listserv. Figuring I might receive different information from that list (and thus allowing me to pass on pros and cons to our director, instead of just cons), I attempted to sign on to the list, only to receive the the below rejection notice. So much for "open source". Why the secretive approach if the system is not proprietary?<br>
<br>But, I'm still seeking information on PTFS/LibLime. So, if there are any customers of this vendor lurking out there, I would love to hear from you, either pro or con. You may email me off list if you are more comfortable with that. My email is storypage [at] <a href="http://gmail.com">gmail.com</a>.<br>
<br>Thanks in advance,<br>--Jim Maroon<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>From: <b class="gmail_sendername"></b> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:liblime-users-bounces@lists.liblime.com">liblime-users-bounces@lists.liblime.com</a>></span><br>
