	abstract = {AIM: The Belgian Health Care Knowledge Centre (KCE – Kenniscentrum / Centre  d’Expertise) is a recently established government agency that conducts studies in  the field of Good Clinical Practice, Health Technology Assessment, Health Care  Services Research and Equity and Patient Behaviour, and includes a small specialized  library. During its first year of existence, the catalogue of the library was held in  EndNote: the need for an Integrated Library System (ILS) was urgent, but no  specific budget was dedicated for buying such a system.  METHODS: We elaborated a wish-list and a selection procedure to guide ourselves  in the following steps. We then searched for Open-source opportunities through  various sources (journals, Web...).  RESULTS: From the wish-list, 2 serious candidates were pre-selected: Koha and  PMB. After installation tests, PMB was chosen to be the KCE ILS. PMB was installed  on a production server, fully parameterized (classification, authorities, users...) and  officially launched in March 2006. The users enjoy the Online Public Access Catalog  (OPAC), reserving and borrowing a book is easier; an alerting tool may also warn  them about new books or journal issues; in a few clicks, records are exported to  EndNote. The job of the librarian is simplified too: user management, downloading  entries from other library catalogues through Z39.50, presenting recent acquisitions  or specialized collections directly through the OPAC...becomes easier.  CONCLUSION: Thanks to the efforts of the open-source community, any library  can now enjoy a serious ILS at no licence cost: the saved money can hence be  allocated to the extension of the collection.},
