OPAC Snapshot


"Having used Concourse and eZcat for several years, the next logical step was to provide our catalog to our patrons at home through the Internet. WebOPAC is the best product I've seen available for the money, expecially for small libraries with tight budgets. It's user-friendly ... and easy to navigate. From an administrator's viewpoint, it's easy to configure and maintain. I would highly recommend this product to any library looking to provide even better service to their patrons."
