It is currently maintained by a team of software providers and library technology staff from around the globe and is in use in over 350 libraries. While initial versions were developed for small and medium-sized libraries, Koha is now in use at large libraries including the [http://library.neu.edu.tr/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl Near East University] in Cyprus with over two million titles. A [http://contribs.koha.org community exchange site] was recently opened to allow libraries to easily share contributions to the project. Koha supports a rich translation framework and has been translated into nearly a dozen languages. A [http://translate.koha.org translation site] exists to facilitate additional translations.

We think so. Frankly, after experiencing the sensation of having total control over our software, we could probably never go back to a commercial system."

As more libraries switch to Koha and sponsor new functionality, other libraries will benefit when the next upgrade cycle occurs. Koha has a steady stream of updates, and the momentum for this open-source product is excellent."com/
