The Cape Girardeau Public Library recently joined Missouri Evergreen, a consortium of more than 60 library systems statewide. Library Director Katie Earnhart says Missouri Evergreen is the library's new Integrated Library System (ILS) that tracks their books and who is checking out items. The system is open-source software that was introduced to the State of Missouri by the Poplar Bluff Library in 2012 and has been growing ever since. Earnhart says that there are over four million items in the shared collection.
