Insomniac Librarians Why sleep when there's field literature?

When I was a little girl, my parents would encourage me to make a long list of pros and cons prior to taking a decision. Now that I'm older (but certainly not yet grown up!) one of the most frequent questions I get about Koha from librarians is "Now really, Brooke, what's wrong with it?" There's a feeling that if it's free, it has to be inferior. This is closely related to Lies Your Vendor Tells You.

But there are issues, and I am in a unique position to genuinely assess the product over a long period of time as well as have an insider's view of some of what happens with the developers.
