+Introduction
+============
+
+About This Documentation
+-------------------------
+
+This guide was produced by the Evergreen Documentation Interest Group (DIG),
+consisting of numerous volunteers from many different organizations. The DIG
+has drawn together, edited, and supplemented pre-existing documentation
+contributed by libraries and consortia running Evergreen that were kind enough
+to realease their documentation into the creative commons. Please see the
+<<attributions,Attributions>> section for a full list of authors and
+contributing organizations. Just like the software it describes, this guide is
+a work in progress, continually revised to meet the needs of its users, so if
+you find errors or omissions, please let us know, by contacting the DIG
+facilitators at docs@evergreen-ils.org.
+ 
+ This guide to Evergreen is intended to meet the needs of library workers
+ who provide serial services. 
+ It is organized into Parts, Chapters, and Sections addressing key
+ aspects of the software. 
+
+ Copies of this guide can be accessed in PDF and HTML formats from http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/.
+
+ About Evergreen
+ ---------------
+
+ Evergreen is an open source library automation software designed to meet the 
+ needs of the very smallest to the very largest libraries and consortia. Through
+ its staff interface, it facilitates the management, cataloging, and circulation
+ of library materials, and through its online public access interface it helps
+ patrons find those materials.
+
+ The Evergreen software is freely licensed under the GNU General Public License, 
+ meaning that it is free to download, use, view, modify, and share. It has an
+ active development and user community, as well as several companies offering
+ migration, support, hosting, and development services. 
+
+ The community's development requirements state that Evergreen must be:
+
+ * Stable, even under extreme load. 
+ * Robust, and capable of handling a high volume of transactions and simultaneous users. 
+ * Flexible, to accommodate the varied needs of libraries. 
+ * Secure, to protect our patrons' privacy and data. 
+ * User-friendly, to facilitate patron and staff use of the system. 
+
+ Evergreen, which first launched in 2006 now powers over 544 libraries of every
+ type - public, academic, special, school and even tribal and home libraries - 
+ in over a dozen countries worldwide.
