About this gig
Are you a librarian, university, school, or NGO looking to set up or upgrade your library management system? With 30 years of experience as a librarian, academic researcher, and trainer, I specialize in installing, configuring, and customizing KOHA the world's leading open-source Integrated Library System (ILS).
What I offer:
Fresh Koha installation on your Linux server or VPS
System configuration: branches, patron categories, circulation rules
MARC21 cataloging setup and record import
OPAC (public catalog) customization and branding
Data migration from your spreadsheets into Koha
Staff training and documentation
I've worked hands-on with library systems in real academic and institutional settings for over two decades not just as an IT contractor, but as a librarian who understands cataloging standards and day-to-day workflows.
