KOHA - Library Management System

LRC resources are managed through KOHA, a web-based integrated library system installed on a Linux platform. KOHA streamlines library operations, providing modules for acquisition, cataloging, circulation, serial control, and OPAC (Online Public Access Catalogue). This system supports MARC21 and UNIMARC standards for professional cataloging and z39.50 for copy cataloging from renowned libraries. KOHA’s user-friendly interface simplifies the search process, enabling users to search across all fields or within specific categories to find the resources they need.
