Matthew, Birth and 8 Months
![Page 31: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The truth behind the tales
Small library, teeny budget Library values = Open source values Don’t be afraid!
![Page 32: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The challenges of the small library All libraries have budget problems, but this is
ridiculous … Small, rural areas feel economic strain earlier Small overworked staffs No in-house tech support
![Page 33: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
“Hey you, 20-somethings! Fix the
computer!”
![Page 34: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Lack of support, fear of change Perception of OSS as a “techie” thing Overlords: Evil, but Protective? Institutional, pathological fear of change
![Page 35: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The advantages of being small Small = flexible, fast-responding, non-
bureaucratic No RFPs, red tape, silos OSS = budget-friendly!
![Page 36: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
KCPL post-migration
Staff ownership of Open Source Software Staff ideas influence the development track Patrons love the idea of supporting OSS,
even if they’re not sure what OSS is Our community values = OSS values!
![Page 37: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Be thou not afraid, Small Libraries! You don’t have to do it alone Support, hosting, listservs, community Collaborate, innovate, share
![Page 38: Evergreen in Small Libraries](https://reader035.fdocument.pub/reader035/viewer/2022062704/55626024d8b42aab1a8b471b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Open Source: Use it, share it, love it
