About Evergreen ILS

This is the project site for Evergreen, highly-scalable software for libraries that helps library patrons find library materials, and helps libraries manage, catalog, and circulate those materials, no matter how large or complex the libraries. The Evergreen Project develops an open-source ILS (integrated library system) used by more than 2,000 libraries around the world. The software, also called Evergreen, is used by libraries to provide their public catalog interface as well as to manage back-of-house operations such as circulation (checkouts and check-ins), acquisition of library materials, and (particularly in the case of Evergreen) sharing resources among groups of libraries. Evergreen depends on the following technologies Perl, C, JavaScript, XML, XPath, XSLT, XMPP, OpenSRF, Apache, mod_perl, and PostgreSQL. The latest stable release of a supported Linux distribution is recommended for an Evergreen installation.

    "Open Source ILS that works well"

    Posted 2021-09-13

    Pros: Having a web-based ILS means that it can be accessed by our staff anywhere on any system. This makes deployment incredibly easy, MARC work easy, and any work out in the stacks a breeze. It is a robust and powerful ILS that has open source functionality for deep customization.

    Cons: The ability to pull reports is an incredibly chaotic system that seems unnecessarily busy. Back end is incredibly robust, but finding the features you need can be difficult.

    Overall: ILS are steep learning curves, so the cons of this don't hold it back in any meaningful way. The robust open source abilities carry it far.
