Three speeches:
1. Free Information / Anthony Mao, Associate Professor, Fu-Jen Catholic University, Taiwan 2. Free Software for Libraries / Thomas Tsai, Assistant Researcher, National Center for High-Performance Computing, Taiwan 3. Koha: GNU GPL Licenced Integreted Library Management System / Yu, Long-Shan, Koha-Taiwan engineer, Taiwan Three papers deal with free information, free software and free application for libraries. Libraries have information collection which is designed to lend to its readers. People can borrow free information without worry about violating laws. Free information was defined as: public domain information, authorized copyrighted information, Creative Commons licensed academic information, and government information. Computers at libraries installed a lot of softwares. Is it possible to use pure free software to construct a free library? In this panel, we deal with librarian desktop and public desktop. We also deal with some server side software. In order to build a true free library, this panel describe Koha, a GNU GPL licensed Integreted Library Management System. Over dozen Taiwan libraries installed Koha during the last year. Koha Taiwan groups not only translate user interface and modify its MARC structure, also promote Koha over other Chinese speaking schools oversea. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
