1. INTRODUCTION
===============

Welcome to BiblioteQ v2015.06.10 port for OS/2 and eComStation.

BiblioteQ strives to be a complete and thorough library management suite. 
The application is supported on numerous platforms, including FreeBSD, Linux, OS X, Solaris, OS/2
and Windows. 
Installers are available for OS X, Unix, and Windows.
For some categories, BiblioteQ provides a mechanism for querying the Library of Congress, 
or any other Z39.50-capable system, via the standard Z39.50 protocol; thus simplifying the 
data-entry process.
As for database connectivity, BiblioteQ supports both PostgreSQL and SQLite database engines.
