iPads for Education
http://cit.duke.edu/2010/04/ipad-for-education-early-impressions/
Thinking about higher education specifically – what can we expect students and faculty actually do with the iPad? As users of iPhones or iPod Touches already know, the answer to this question depends almost more on the applications (or ‘apps’) that one decides to put on the device, than the capabilities of the device on its own.

On the possibilities of a online library system.
On the possibilities of a online library system.
An integrated library system (ILS), also known as a library management system (LMS), is an enterprise resource planning system for a library, used to track items owned,
orders made, bills paid, and patrons who have borrowed. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_library_system )
An ILS usually comprises a relational database, software to interact with that database, and two graphical user interfaces (one for patrons, one for staff). Most ILSes separate software
functions into discrete programs called modules, each of them integrated with a
unified interface. Examples of modules might include:
About Koha
Koha is the first open-source Integrated Library System (ILS). In use worldwide, its
development is steered by a growing community of libraries collaborating to achieve
their technology goals. Koha's impressive feature set continues to evolve and expand
to meet the needs of its user base.
Full-featured ILS. In use worldwide in libraries of all sizes, Koha is a true
enterprise-class ILS with comprehensive functionality including basic or advanced options.
Koha includes modules for circulation, cataloging, acquisitions, serials, reserves, patron management, branch relationships, and more. For a comprehensive overview
of features visit the Koha feature map.
Dual Database Design. Koha uses a dual database design that utilizes the strengths of the two major industry-standard database types (text-based and RDBMS). This design feature ensures that Koha is scalable enough to meet the transaction load of any library, no matter what the size.
Library Standards Compliant. Koha is built using library standards and protocols that ensure interoperability between Koha and other systems and technologies, while supporting existing workflows and tools.
Web-based Interfaces. Koha's OPAC, circ, management and self-checkout interfaces are all based on standards-compliant World Wide Web technologies--XHTML, CSS and Javascript--making Koha a truly platform-independent solution.
Welcome to the Evergreen Project!
This is the project site for Evergreen, the highly-scalable software for libraries that helps library patrons find library materials, and helps libraries manage, catalog, and
circulate those materials, no matter how large or complex the libraries. Evergreen is open-source, consortia-quality library software to help library users find library materials and to help libraries manage, catalog, and circulate those materials.
Evergreen, which first launched in September, 2006 in Georgia's PINES consortium,
now powers over 544 libraries of every type -- public, academic, special, school,
and even tribal and home libraries -- in over a dozen countries worldwide.
Evergreen has an active community that participates in its coding, documentation, and direction of the project.
As a community, our development requirements are that Evergreen must be:
·
Stable, even under extreme load.
·
Robust, and capable of handling a high volume of transactions and simultaneous users.
·
Flexible, to accommodate the varied needs of libraries.
·
Secure, to protect our patrons' privacy and data.
·
User-friendly, to facilitate patron and staff use of the system.

- serials (tracking magazine and newspaper holdings)
- the OPAC (public interface for users)
