What is being said about Evergreen
In a time of diminishing options for ILS solutions, and increasing expectations from library users, Evergreen stands tall on the library computing landscape as a way for libraries to take charge of their future.

It's an open secret that ILS systems today are a frustrating mess for smart librarians (and patrons) ... [Evergreen is] an open source, enterprise-class library management system that may revolutionize the way large-scale libraries are run.
- Michael Stutz, Linux.com
It is impossible to overstate the importance of this: we are likely looking at the new face of libraries.
- Peter Zimmerman, words
Evergreen ... signals the end of the world as we know it. If an open source ILS on the scale of a statewide resource sharing consortium can develop a community of supportive users, it is hard to imagine what the boundaries will be.

What do you do when you are not happy with the existing softwares out there? You write your own, and if you open source it you open it to the widest possible talent pool.
