Koha is the first free software library automation package. In use worldwide, its development is steered by a growing community of users collaborating to achieve their technology goals. Koha’s feature set continues to evolve and expand to meet the needs of its user base.
Full-featured ILS
In use worldwide in libraries of all sizes, Koha is a true enterprise-class ILS with comprehensive functionality including acquisitions, circulation, cataloging, serials management, authorities, flexible reporting, label printing, multi-format notices, offline circulation, and more. Koha supports consortia, multi-branch, and single-branch libraries.
Multilingual and Translatable
Koha supports a large number of available languages, with more added every year.
Full Text Searching
Powerful searching and an enhanced catalogue display that integrates content from Amazon, Google, LibraryThing, Open Library, Syndetics, and more.
Library Standards Compliant
Built using standards like MARC 21, UNIMARC, z39.50, SRU/SW, SIP2, and SIP/NCIP, Koha ensures interoperability with other systems while supporting existing workflows.
Web-based Interfaces
Koha’s OPAC, circulation, management, and self-checkout interfaces use standards-compliant technologies (XHTML, CSS, JavaScript), making it a platform-independent solution.
Libraries can install and use Koha independently or purchase support services without vendor lock-in. Libraries are free to change support companies and export their data at any time, ensuring good data management.
MCET Central Library & Information Centre
