Online Library Application (OLA) project is a Web-based library system for small/medium organizations (books, videos, etc.).

The software allows users to browse the library collection over the Internet, and allows authorized persons to manage sign in and sign out procedures, resource adds and updates, and data backups.

It was originally written for a non-profit organization to manage their resource library.

Here are some key features of "Online Library Application":
internet based
highly graphical
compatible with Netscape and Windows browsers
suitable for tracking many types of resources (books, magazines, videos, music, etc.)
can store a large amount of data about each resource
borrowers do not have to set up an account
stores minimal information about borrowers--just the bare essentials
simple database export function
template based for easy configuration/customization
optional gzip compressed output to save on bandwidth
although designed for small organizations, catalog should scale well to millions of entries

Requirements:
PHP 4
MySQL (any version within the past 3 years should work)

What's New in This Release:
no longer requires register_globals = On in PHP.ini

duplicate function declaration in ADODB was causing PHP error
set default error reporting level to PHP default New Features
