NewGenLib OPAC

Many people met a problem with OPAC of NewGenLib because they want to change and customize the interface of it. They can change some of OPAC not complete interface they want. For default NewGenLib OPAC, it could not customize and flexible as we need, but to solve this problem we have another OPAC which user can change and customize to be a good looking interface.
