Traditional integrated library systems (ILS) can be too complex and expensive for many libraries. PALS offers an ILS solution using the Evergreen open source software. PALS and Evergreen create an intuitive, user-friendly experience for your patrons without adding costly licensing fees to your budget!

Evergreen now features a completely redesigned, faster, OPAC, faceted searching, a Kid's Catalog, and easy customization.  Evergreen includes circulation, cataloging, serials, aquisitions, and booking.

PALS hosts and supports Evergreen for: East Central Regional Library, a six-county, 14-branch public library system in Minnesota and East Grand Forks Campbell Library, a city library in northwest Minnesota.
