Evergreen

Highly-scalable software for libraries that helps library patrons find library materials, and helps libraries manage, catalog, and circulate those materials.

Evergreen provides a library‑focused integrated library system that enables patrons to search for and access library collections while giving librarians tools to manage, catalog, and circulate materials. Its core features include a public catalog, self‑check stations, and staff interfaces for circulation, acquisitions, and reporting, all built to handle large, multi‑branch environments.

The software is self‑hostable and released under the GPL‑2.0 license, allowing libraries to run it on their own servers without subscription fees. It is offered as a free tier and is classified as libre open‑source, with a stable release track and regular security updates that address database and SQL execution vulnerabilities.

Recent releases have upgraded the staff interface to a newer Angular framework and included numerous bug fixes, such as improvements to hold processing, barcode handling, and duplicate submission prevention. The project maintains documentation, community mailing lists, and an IRC channel for support and contribution.
