Conclusions
Does Linux have a place in every library? Not necessarily, but it can be a valuable tool for librarians who have staff time they can use to assist users with computers. Staff who have the time to familiarize themselves with Linux may not find it more difficult to use than windows in that environment. It’s possible to extend the life of computers that would have needed to be retired because supported Microsoft operating systems would not exist that would allow them to continue running Windows on these computers. Some libraries may not have the resources to replace all of their computers at the same time, and this would allow them to have some extended life on older computers that could still have a valuable use in libraries with limited budgets for hardware.
