Dear Mr. Fletcher,
As I am also interested in Open Source library software I read this
thread with some interest.
I was disappointed with the responds and though, they neither helpful
nor answered your question, so I searched (once again) for a solution.
I found this
Check Out Open Source Library and Collections Management Software -
Linux.com
<https://www.linux.com/news/check-out-open-source-library-and-collections-management-software/>
The article at above URL specifically states that Koha, "… developed for
public libraries in New Zealand …", is "… scalable to libraries of
different sizes, from small private collections to large,
geographically-remote library systems with multiple branch locations."
There are a number of other suggestions in the article. Koha, because it
is scalable, and the oldest (and therefore most mature) is likely the
best bet.
Hope this helps!
