Your Integrated Library System (ILS) at your fingertip!

KOHA is a full-featured enterprise-class ILS in use worldwide in libraries of all sizes.  Koha comes with a comprehensive suite of functionalities that are customizable and made accessible via familiar modules mirroring today’s library operation.  These modules include covers acquisitions, client / patron management, Search features, Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC), circulations management, cataloguing, serials management, inventory management, dynamic reporting, label printing and much more.

Koha is an open-source web-based ILMS. Its comprehensive capacity makes its functionality similar to that of an in-house library where staff and patrons can enter data and use the catalog with ease and flexibility.
