Get started with Libki to manage public user computer access
|
||||
======
|
||||
Libki is a cross-platform, computer reservation and time management
|
||||
system.
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Libraries, schools, colleges, and other organizations that provide public computers need a good way to manage users' access—otherwise, there's no way to prevent some people from monopolizing the machines and ensure everyone has a fair amount of time. This is the problem that [Libki][2] was designed to solve.
|
||||
|
||||
Libki is an open source, cross-platform, computer reservation and time management system for Windows and Linux PCs. It provides a web-based server and a web-based administration system that staff can use to manage computer access, including creating and deleting users, setting time limits on accounts, logging out and banning users, and setting access restrictions.
|
||||
|
||||
According to lead developer [Kyle Hall][3], Libki is mainly used for PC time control as an open source alternative to Envisionware's proprietary computer access control software. When users log into a Libki-managed computer, they get a block of time to use the computer; once that time is up, they are logged off. The default setting is 45 minutes, but that can easily be adjusted using the web-based administration system. Some organizations offer 24 hours of access before logging users off, and others use it to track usage without setting time limits.
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle is currently lead developer at [ByWater Solutions][4], which provides open source software solutions (including Libki) to libraries. He developed Libki early in his career when he was the IT tech at the [Meadville Public Library][5] in Pennsylvania. He was occasionally asked to cover the children's room during lunch breaks for other employees. The library used a paper sign-up sheet to manage access to the computers in the children's room, which meant constant supervision and checking to ensure equitable access for the people who came there.
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle said, "I found this system to be cumbersome and awkward, and I wanted to find a solution. That solution needed to be both FOSS and cross-platform. In the end, no existing software package suited our particular needs, and that is why I developed Libki."
|
||||
|
||||
Or, as Libki's website proclaims, "Libki was born of the need to avoid interacting with teenagers and now allows librarians to avoid interacting with teenagers around the world!"
|
||||
|
||||
### Easy to set up and use
|
||||
|
||||
I recently decided to try Libki in our local public library, where I frequently volunteer. I followed the [documentation][6] for the automatic installation, using Ubuntu 18.04 Server, and very quickly had it up and running.
|
||||
|
||||
I am planning to support Libki in our local library, but I wondered about libraries that don't have someone with IT experience or the ability to build and deploy a server. Kyle says, "ByWater Solutions can cloud-host a Libki server, which makes maintenance and management much simpler for everyone."
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle says ByWater is not planning to bundle Libki with its most popular offering, open source integrated library system (ILS) Koha, or any of the other [projects][7] it supports. "Libki and Koha are different [types of] software serving different needs, but they definitely work well together in a library setting. In fact, it was quite early on that I developed Libki's SIP2 integration so it could support single sign-on using Koha," he says.
|
||||
|
||||
### How you can contribute
|
||||
|
||||
Libki client is licensed under the GPLv3 and Libki server is licensed under the AGPLv3. Kyle says he would love Libki to have a more active and robust community, and the project is always looking for new people to join its [contributors][8]. If you would like to participate, visit [Libki's Community page][9] and join the mailing list.

开始使用 Libk i来管理公共用户访问计算机
|
||||
======
|
||||
Libki 是一个跨平台的计算机预约和时间管理系统。
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
提供公共计算机的图书馆、学校、学院和其他组织需要一种管理用户访问权限的好方法 - 否则,就无法阻止某些人独占机器并确保每个人都有公平的时间。这是 [Libki][2] 要解决的问题。
|
||||
|
||||
Libki 是一个面向 Windows 和 Linux PC 的开源、跨平台的计算机预约和时间管理系统。它提供了一个基于 Web 的服务器和一个基于 Web 的管理系统,员工可以使用它来管理计算机访问,包括创建和删除用户、设置帐户时间限制、登出和禁止用户以及设置访问限制。
|
||||
|
||||
根据首席开发人员 [Kyle Hall][3] 所说,Libki 主要用于 PC 时间控制,作为 Envisionware 的专有计算机访问控制软件的开源替代品。当用户登录 Libki 管理的计算机时,他们会有一段时间来使用计算机。时间到了之后,他们就会被登出。时间默认设置为 45 分钟,但可以使用基于 Web 的管理系统轻松调整。一些组织在登出用户之前提供 24 小时访问权限,而有的组织则使用它来跟踪使用情况而不设置时间限制。
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle 目前是 [ByWater Solutions][4] 的首席开发人员,该公司为图书馆提供开源软件解决方案(包括 Libki)。在职业生涯早期,他在宾夕法尼亚州的[米德维尔公共图书馆][5]担任 IT 技术时开发了 Libki。在其他员工的午休期间,偶尔会要求他关注孩子的房间。图书馆使用纸质注册表来管理对儿童房间计算机的访问,这意味着不断的监督和检查,以确保来到那里的人能够公平地使用。
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle 说,“我发现这个系统很麻烦、很尴尬,我想找到一个解决方案。这个解决方案需要同时是 FOSS 和跨平台的。最后,没有现有的软件适合我们的特殊需求,那就是为什么我开发了 Libki。“
|
||||
|
||||
或者,正如 Libki 的网站所宣称的那样,“Libki 的诞生是为了避免与青少年互动,现在允许图书馆员避免与世界各地的青少年互动!”
|
||||
|
||||
### 易于安装和使用
|
||||
|
||||
我最近决定在我经常在那里做志愿者的当地的公共图书馆尝试 Libki。我按照[文档][6]在 Ubuntu 18.04 Server 中自动进行了安装,它很快就启动起来了。
|
||||
|
||||
我计划在我们当地的图书馆支持 Libki,但我想知道在那些没有 IT 相关经验的人或者无法构建和部署服务器的图书馆是怎样的。Kyle 说:“ByWater Solutions 可以云端托管 Libki 服务器,这使得每个人的维护和管理变得更加简单。”
|
||||
|
||||
Kyle 表示,ByWater 并不打算将 Libki 与其最受欢迎的产品,开源集成图书馆系统 (ILS)Koha 或其支持的任何其他[项目][7]捆绑在一起。他说: “Libki 和 Koha 是不同[类型]的软件,满足不同的需求,但它们在图书馆中确实很好地协同工作。事实上,我很早就开发了 Libki 的 SIP2 集成,因此它可以支持使用 Koha 进行单点登录,“ 。
|
||||
|
||||
### 如何贡献
|
||||
|
||||
Libki 客户端是 GPLv3 许可,Libki 服务器是 AGPLv3 许可。Kyle 说他希望 Libki 拥有一个更加活跃和强大的社区,项目一直在寻找新人加入其[贡献者][8]。如果你想参加,请访问 [Libki 社区页面][9]并加入邮件列表。
