This document discusses Bokeh, an open source library portal software. Bokeh allows libraries to create a single portal for their online public access catalog (OPAC), content management system (CMS), digital collections, and more. It provides enriched features to the OPAC like harvesting metadata to display book covers, videos and links to additional information. Bokeh also allows libraries to easily create and manage additional sites and provides tools to aggregate and search across multiple collections.
