About
OPALS Open-source Automated Library System is a powerful cooperatively developed, Web-based, open source program. This alternative technology provides Internet access to information databases, library collections and digital archives. Many school, college, research, business, religious and library union catalogs (that provide ILL services) use OPALS. There is no need to install software or purchase expensive computer hardware or software licenses to implement this powerful, turnkey Internet accessible system. The “total cost of ownership” of this standards-based, Web-based, feature rich software is demonstrably and undeniably sustainable. We can host and maintain OPALS on our servers or we can work with your IT colleagues to install and support it at your site. Experienced programmers and technical support staff update and maintain the program, giving this open source initiative a responsive, dependable support framework that is essential for institutions that serve the public.

About
PowerBK is a Windows library management software designed for libraries, schools, universities, associations, professionals and private book collections. It supports book cataloging, contacts and borrowers, loans and returns, due dates, barcode labels, inventory, searches, reports and data import or export.
Bibliographic data can be retrieved from online sources using ISBN, including Google Books, Open Library and library catalog services, helping reduce manual data entry. PowerBK can also manage Dewey Decimal Classification, cover images, multiple databases and shared network installations.
The software is suitable for small and medium-sized libraries as well as personal collections. A free demo is available, with annual or perpetual licensing options.
