Better Library automation software for college library?

Which is the better library automation software for big college library containing 70,000 books? Is it SOUL 2.0, Newgenlib or other?

It is better to use Koha Open Source software for automation in big libraries. It is open source, freely available.Especially for Indian Libraries which are facing financial problems, Open Source Software like Koha is better, than Soul and other softwares.

Aijazji u r right, Koha is highly admired by not Only in Indian library professionals but also internationally. Functionalities available in KOHA, Indian ILS does not match with it.

I think you have to choose LIBSOFT for your Library. Its more user friendly and have some new feaures. Even help service is good comparing to LIBSYS and other library softwares.
