Live Koha Demo
You can explore the Koha Library Management System using our free live demo environment. No registration required. Use the Koha demo login below to test both the staff interface and the OPAC as much as you'd like — the demo site resets every hour.
If you want to evaluate Koha on AWS Cloud, choose Standard Self-Service or try the Free Tier. If you want help with migration or setup, talk to KohaSupport.
