ByWater Solutions, an open source community supporter and official Koha support company, celebrated their one year anniversary for providing quality implementation and support services for open source ILS’s such as Koha and Evergreen.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Norcross, GA — March 4, 2010
Beacon Falls Public Library and Douglas Library of Hebron are the first members of Connecticut’s Bibliomation consortium to go live with the Evergreen open source ILS. Bibliomation opted to begin the move to Evergreen with a set of five pilot libraries. Slater Public Library, Windham Free Public Library, and Jonathan Trumbull Library will complete the initial group and are expected live at a later date. The entire consortium is expected live on Evergreen in 2011.

I invite you to order my new book, On the Strand, published by World Audience Publishers, New York City. Strand picks up in a memoir where my first book, Waking Up in the Studebaker, of the two-book series, left off.
