About BibLibre

BibLibre was incorporated in 2007, building on 5 successful years of work as free-lance consultants in open source softwares in libraries in general, and Koha in particular.

Koha was created in 2000 as the first Open Source Integrated Library System: our early involvement with the project gave us an extended knowledge of librarianship and the needs of librarians in the age of omnipresent internet and open data.

Building on this expertise, we now provide a range of services to libraries: we develop, host, support open source software for libraries and may also help you with migration processes, staff training and software maintenance.

BibLibre currently has a staff of 11.

Our management team:
