NHS and Health libraries

‘Koha LMS for NHS and health libraries‘ – Meet our NHS and health library account manager Andrew Auld in this webinar as he provides an overview of how the Koha LMS has been used to transform health library workflows across the UK, creating more efficient processes and making resources easier to access.

We proudly work with health and NHS libraries and consortia throughout the UK, providing implementation, support and training for open source library software.

We believe that there is a natural alignment between the values of health libraries and open source software, including knowledge sharing, equal access to information, innovation, transparency, and cost-effectiveness.

Libraries choose Koha library management system and Aspen Discovery software because they are comprehensive, engaging and user-focused solutions that meet their needs with a suite of available integrations. By using open source software, not proprietary, libraries don’t pay expensive licensing fees or face vendor lock-in and also benefit from a global open source development and user community.

At Open Fifth, our focus is on delivering high-quality implementation, training and support for libraries and building lasting relationships with the customers we serve.
