How cool is this?? I just stumbled across this via someone else’s del.icio.us bookmarks. It’s an ILS Chooser! From the about page:
Source of data: Wayne, R. (2006). Helping You Buy: Integrated Library Systems. Computers in Libraries, 26, 23-31.
This exhibit could not have been done without the Wayne survey data.I also took the information on popularity from Marshall Breeding’s lib-web-cats database: http://www.librarytechnology.org/libwebcats/
I did a simple search by ILS and took the number of hits, so this is only a very general way of gauging popularity.
I went through and picked things that were important to me and my library - and I got two options - bet you can guess which one wasn’t on the list 
Number one on my results list was Koha!!! Good thing we’re going to have a demo this month
This tool has a lot of potential - I can’t wait to see it grow.

I put this together, and I’m glad you found this potentially useful. Any suggestions on other facets I could include?
I’ll have to give it a thorough look over - I did feel like there was little instruction. It took me a bit to realize that when I chose a narrowing option my other options changed accordingly. Also, it’d be nice to be able to narrow by a few other features.
I know all of this because I’m currently trying to sell a migration at work - and it means keeping an eye on a lot of particular features.
I’ll let you know more specifics after doing a thorough test.
