I am happy to announce that Practical Open Source Software for Libraries has been published and is available for purchase in the US from Neal-Schuman Publishers and in the rest of the world from Chandos Publishing.

If you happen to write a review online please send me the link and I’ll add it here. Also remember that all updates to the book will be published here. I hope that you all learn a lot from what I’ve written and that it gets across the true definition of open source and why libraries should care.

Finally, I want to yet again thank Chris Cormack for his inspiration and all the time he took over the years to help teach and mentor me! Without him this book would have been written by someone else.

That’s right, this is the month. Practical Open Source Software for Libraries is due to be published this month. Keep an eye out for the official announcement regarding publications. The book will be published by Chandos Publishing and exclusively distributed in North America by Neal-Schuman Publishers. Both sites have pre-order information available if you’re interested in getting a jump start!
