  • No phone apps that I know of for Koha. I think it works fine on any mobile browser, though. If you know HTML, CSS, or even JavaScript you can do a ton of cool stuff on your library's catalogue. As for FOLIO, no idea, but I don't think any exist.

    There is VideLibri but it doesn't add any functionality you don't already have when accessing the online catalogue of any library on your browser, so I don't think it's worth it. Something like the Web Opac App, which let's you browse a ton of libraries' catalogues in one app would be a more interesting solution. Unfortunately, it's stopped being maintained a while ago and went closed-source, from what I can gather.

  • Hi! In the library I work, we use Koha, which is probably the most well-known open-source library management system. This comes with the advantage of having a big community and having a lot of answers to questions you'll probably have, albeit the documentation is kind of all over the place. Just a heads-up, though: it only runs on Linux so, whoever is going to do the implementation must familiarize themselves with it if they haven't done so already. It's not a flawless system by any means but as far as open-source goes, it's the best and most mature.

    There are a few demo servers you can try on their website: https://koha-community.org/demo/

    The other open-source library management system I know of is FOLIO (their repo) but I haven't tried it or read much about it. I only know it's way younger than Koha (created 10 years ago, I think) and that EBSCO is one of its vendors. It may use newer technology but I honestly don't know. You can also try a demo server if you go to their wiki.

    Hope it helped. If you have any questions, let me know :).

  • Yeah, definitely. I've still managed to finish it some 20 times but going in blind the first time really contributed to me loving it so much.

    I'd also argue you shouldn't look too much into the sequel. Not because of any "thing" in particular but because it's more fun to immerse yourself in the game and slowly begin to unveil all the major themes of its story.

    • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
    • Jade Empire
    • Observation

    EDIT: Jade Empire doesn't really fit, so I'll go with Observation instead. I'll still argue you're better off not knowing anything about KOTOR aside from being an RPG in the Star Wars universe.

  • Definition: "Love" is making a shot to the knees of a target 120 kilometers away using an Aratech sniper rifle with a tri-light scope.
    Statement: This definition, I am told, is subject to interpretation. Obviously, love is a matter of odds. Not many meatbags could make such a shot, and strangely enough, not many meatbags would derive love from it. Yet for me, love is knowing your target, putting them in your targeting reticule, and together, achieving a singular purpose... against statistically long odds.

  • Just saw it, thanks again!

  • That's pretty cool of you! Do you still have keys for Moonscars and Cursed to Golf? I'm interested in playing them.

  • Sekiro. Friends tell me it's one of the harder From Software games so I'm looking forward to die many times.
