7,Optimising ICT Potentials for Integrating Africa in the Global Scientific Information Systems: A Case of Open Access Movement,"ICT plays vital role in the global scientific information systems with Africa at the margin of this chain, a less significance world of science is flowing in and little African Science flowing out. This paper examines this observation and reviews the Open Access Movement and related initiatives with a view to showing that these initiatives would ease the flow of scientific publications in and out of Africa. The expectation that the internet would accelerate scientific information systems does not seams to be realizable owing to observes low quality of those publications that are uploaded on the internet at no cost, the restrictive subscription fees of the high quality sources, in addition to the beleaguering inequality in access and use of the internet and other ICT resources. Finally, the slow advacement of the Open Access Movement in Africa, the nonchalance of African scientists towards the movement, the non-expression of concern by policy makers among others, in addition to their implications for scientific activities in Africa are discussed.",Invite Presentation,Awoyemi,Robert,Akinade,NG,,[email protected],,"ACE Virtual Library, Senior Systems Librarian",Awoyemi,Robert,Akinade,NG,,[email protected],,College Virtual Library,Egunjobi,Rotimi,Adesina,NG,,[email protected],,College Librarian,General Papers,en,Invite Presentation,,,,,Queued
8,Brooke's Fantasy: Towards a Graphical Intuitive Interface Derived from Gaming,"#onlyintheghetto do Libraries innovate. When Koha was born, it was cutting and bloody edge, despite the tight time frame for initial development. Necessity breeds change. Now that we're established, how do we keep a good thing going? LISs universally fall short in interface design, both for staff and end users. By contrast, gaming offers its users lush intuitive interfaces. often so simple children can grasp them. What can we learn from the entertainment realm that we can adapt to Koha? How do we fully leverage the open source community and blend our strengths to fashion an easy to use, powerful alternative to proprietary products?I invite you into my dream of how I see Koha's interface in an ideal world. I hope to spark a lively discussion that will spill over into the hackfest.",Invite Presentation,BWS,,Johnson,US,,[email protected],,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,General Papers,en,Invite Presentation,,,,,Queued

12,Giving Librarians a Voice â Using Open Source Libraries to Build a Better System," Koha is becoming more popular with libraries interested in bespoke systems and working in a collaborative environment for significantly less cost than proprietary software. Yet, some libraries still hold back their investigations of open source library systems due to being ill-informed about the free and open source business model, and what it entails. The greater part of this is due to to a lack of understanding regarding the ethos, features and opportunities of applying open source applications and the opportunities for collaboration and sharing they present in comparison to proprietary platforms because of a lack of education on the topic in the fields of information management and librarianship. This talk aims to dispel the common misconceptions about what Open Source library solutions are, how they work, and what it means for the librarians and their patrons as we work towards a more patron-driven library system for the future. It covers the “urban legends” regarding the use of open source software, before examining the business model open source ILS's use. It then examines the collaborative benefits of migrating to such a system, and finally counts the time and money saved in the years to come. We will discuss the use of open source in libraries, concentrating primarily on the Koha Integrated Library System: outlining the system's benefits and what a library can do with the software, including it's eBook, social media, and smartphone/tablet applications, while charting how Koha has developed into an internationally used library system that benefits millions of users every day.",Invite Presentation,Shelley,,Gurney,NZ,,[email protected],,"Project Manager/ Consulting Librarian, Koha Development Team, Catalyst IT New Zealand",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,General Papers,en,Invite Presentation,,,,,Queued

27,THE ADVANTAGES OF IMPLEMENTING KOHA IN INFORMATION CENTERS: A Case study of Geothermal Development Company Information center.,"The information Centre at the Geothermal Development Company is the section mandated with the responsibility of maintaining and disseminating information resources within the organization. The Information Centre’s role is thus to acquire, classify, catalogue and make accessible the information resources to all our clients. In order for these Information centers to achieve their objectives and serve their clients better, there is a need to acquire and implement a relevant, reliable and cost effective library information management system. Having done a thorough research for a good Library management system to implement in GDC, the Management settled for the KOHA Integrated Library System. The advantage of using KOHA is that it is open source Integrated Library System software that is a web-based. In GDC KOHA can also be integrated with other software systems like SAP (SAP ERP) Systems Applications and Products in Data Processing thus assisting in managing orders from vendors, in areas of budgets and in providing pricing information. KOHA is capable of the interoperability between KOHA and other security systems and technologies, while supporting existing work flows and tools. KOHA has therefore been strongly recommended for implementation since it is a powerful and flexible integrated library system which will support the services and activities within the information center of GDC.",Accept Submission,SUSAN,WAMBUI,KIBAARA,KE,,[email protected],,Resource Development departmentInformation Scientist,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,General Papers,en,Accept Submission,,,,,Queued

42,KOHA: TOWARDS SUCCESSFUL ADOPTION AND USE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES,"Open source software (OSS) particularly KOHA has recently become the subject of scrutiny and debate, not least for the promise it holds to solve systems development Challenges in LIS community. This paper investigates the benefits as well as the challenges of open source development. While significant process benefits exist, open source is not without several limitations to more widespread use and implementation. The report notes the specific application to developing countries. Despite these flaws, KOHA remains highly suited, both as a software product and as a development methodology. The paper next examines the distinguishing features of KOHA that represent potential benefits to the Library community compared to traditional software challenges. The specific appeal of OSS development for developing countries is noted. This holds the promise of increasing OSS development, which in turn can benefit organizations in developing countries.
