EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) and BibLibre have announced a partnership to support libraries adopting the FOLIO Library Services Platform (LSP). EBSCO and BibLibre will work together to provide reliable hosting and local support services.
Currently, BibLibre supports libraries using Koha (ILS), Coral (ERM), Bokeh (portal) or Omeka (digital resources) in France and Europe. By supporting FOLIO libraries, BibLibre will help increase the adoption of this new platform and provide additional services to large academic libraries.
EBSCO supports FOLIO with funding developers and project management as part of the FOLIO community. EBSCO also provides hosting services and support, as well as a variety of data integration services for libraries adopting the FOLIO LSP.
FOLIO is an open source platform created by a community of librarians, developers and vendors to support traditional ILS functionality with the ability to add additional value and services. The applications are modular and allow multiple vendors or libraries to contribute applications.
