Everyone should have a little knowledge about Open Source. In Computers in Libraries there is a nice overview with links to organizations that are helping libraries understand Open Source software: There’s No Need to Fear Open Source. (2005, May).

Some libraries have already begun this process, and the oss4lib (open source systems for libraries) site documents these efforts.”
