Abstract

This paper focuses on a user-centered empirical examination of the Koha OPAC's usability. The library management requirements of every modern library can be satisfied by Koha automation software. Koha was chosen because it is user-friendly and open source software for this reason. Earlier, the NorthCap University (NCU) library used Libsys-10 software, but now it has successfully implemented Koha OSS for the NCU library. With a focus on OPAC, this paper will assist library professionals in effectively implementing and installing Koha in their libraries. Within a fairly short period of time, the author implemented and installed Koha software at the NorthCap University library under his supervision. As a result, the article analyzed the necessity and significance of library automation as well as the rationale behind choosing Koha library management
