Howdy group mind,

Demand for our public access computers has been ramping up quickly 
lately, as I'm sure it has at many of your libraries.  Computer use has 
increased so much that we're considering implementing reservation 
software, rather than the tried-and-true but wildly inefficient 
clipboard method we currently use.  However, our public terminals run on 
Ubuntu, so the most common reservation software is incompatible.  Are 
any of you familiar with reservation software that would work on 
Ubuntu?  If it had print management, too, that would be grand.  We'd 
greatly appreciate your insights.  Thanks in advance!

Cheers!
Buzzy Nielsen
