Library Open Source Software Shared Practice and Experience Forum

Open Fifth Limited (formerly PTFS Europe Limited) is a UK-based company with the vision to make technology easy for libraries. We focus on enabling library users through high-quality, open source library and archive software solutions. These include the ​Koha library management system​, Aspen​ Discovery patron engagement interface, Metabase reporting and analytics, AtoM (Access to Memory) archival description and access software, ​DSpace​ digital repository, and the ​Knowvation​ enterprise content management system. Our way of working is characterised by listening, finding solutions, reliable delivery, and above all open communication. Our highly skilled team has a friendly and approachable style in delivering our quality implementation and support services.We proudly work with customers across all library sectors, including public, academic, health, government, museum, law, special libraries and archives. The reason so many customers continue to choose us is that we solve problems, we don’t sell software. When libraries join us as a customer, they are gaining the expertise of our developers, trainers, data migration experts, and experienced account managers to support them throughout the journey. As an ISO 27001:2022-certified company, you can also rely on the quality and integrity of the support we’re providing.More information on Open Fifth:www.openfifth.co.uk
