School

Inadequate funding and high costs have made it impractical for many school libraries to implement an integrated library system. Yet proficiency in using electronic resources is a must for students hoping to succeed in higher education in the 21st century. Liblime's open-source automation solutions can help you prepare students for the technology demands they face, and still operate within your budget.

In fact, LibLime's capstone product Koha ILS was recently included in Intel's Integrated Solution Kit for Education!

Affordable library automation

LibLime offers a refreshing alternative to expensive proprietary automation software. Our open-source products offer cutting-edge technologies and features with the freedom to customize. You'll never pay licensing fees, which frees up your budget to invest in core library services or any customizations you may need. Unlike most proprietary software, our product features aren't sold on a 'modular' basis. You always have access to all of the features that have been developed for the product you choose. If a larger institution pays for the development of a new feature, you benefit as well (that's good news for school libraries operating on tight budgets!).

No technology staff? No problem!

LibLime's hosted, turnkey products are perfect for many school libraries. Host your ILS installation on our fiber backbone server and free your staff from IT burdens.
