I just started with Library World in October (Library type: Public; collection size: small; ils satisfaction: 9)

We just went fully automated in July 2021. We are still in the process of adding all of our materials into the system, but so far, it is doing exactly what we need it to do. (Library type: Public; collection size: very small; ils satisfaction: 7)

[...] (Library type: Medical; collection size: small; ils satisfaction: 8)

Ideally, the library would use Koha to join a regional consortium of libraries. There is no budget or staff time for this migration even under consideration. (Library type: Public; collection size: small; ils satisfaction: 4)
