Hi,

I'm considering doing a study of open source library
software, perhaps to install open source software in
one or a few local elementary schools that have no
library software, to see whether the software is
cost-effective and useful, compared to proprietary
software.

Does anyone know of any similar studies?  That is,

   - Do you know of any schools that are using open
source library software?

   - Are you aware of any studies of using open source
library software (in schools)?

   - Are you aware of any studies where someone
installed open source software in elementary schools
(or other organizations) and studied its ease of use,
functionaltiy (e.g., cataloging and circulation), and
cost compared to other open- and closed-source library
systems?

Please reply off-list to me at "lindamarcella at
yahoo.com".

Thank you,

Linda
