<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Melody,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">An open source solution like Koha might be the best bet, as Diedre suggests, assuming you can get it programmed. But as an alternative, I used to work at a library that used
<a href="http://www.libraryworld.com/index.html">LibraryWorld</a>. It was not free, but was under $500 a year (it used to be a dollar a day), and was an 'out of the box' solution. It was certainly not as robust as one might like, but it was web-based so you
don't need to worry about hosting, and you don't need someone with coding skills to get it out of the gate. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Good luck, and please keep us posted about how it's going and if you have any other questions--this is a wonderful group that is always willing to troubleshoot and share ideas.<o:p></o:p></p>
