KOHA Software was developed at :

  • A.Katipo Communication Ltd., New Zealand
  • B.University of Waikato, New Zealand
  • C.Wikimedia Foundation
  • D.Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Libraries & Hewlett-Packard Labs

Answer: A

Koha was developed at Katipo Communications Ltd., New Zealand.

Katipo, a Wellington firm, wrote Koha in 1999 for the Horowhenua Library Trust, and it went live in January 2000 as the first open source integrated library system. Its name is the Maori word for a gift.

The University of Waikato, also in New Zealand, developed Greenstone, the digital library software, which is the trap here. MIT Libraries and Hewlett-Packard Labs developed DSpace, the institutional repository software. The Wikimedia Foundation runs Wikipedia and MediaWiki and has no part in Koha.
