        Folio is combining the communities of OLE, Ebsco, and IndexData. It's motivated by the lack of choice in library systems these days *coughmonopolycough* #UKSG18

      If anyone is interested in OLE as a library system as it relates to Folio development, I manage the only installation of OLE outside of the USA. AMA #UKSG18

        SirsiDynix, ByWater, and other suppliers will be offering Folio hosting, service, and support. That's so important for making open-source library systems palatable and affordable #UKSG18

          As someone who worked extensively on OLE and in the OLE community, I feel a sense of fatherly pride towards Folio. You always want to see your children do better than you did #UKSG18
