<div>I am Lynn Pryor. I am a retired librarian (Australian), presently spending three months in Tanzania, assisting in the library of St John's University of Tanzania (SJUT). </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The University opened less than three years ago, so the library is struggling to maintain services to 3000 very enthusiastic students. A month ago I arrived to find no catalogue, the shelves in disarray, etc. They need a lot of help. One of my first tasks was to find, set up and have installed a LMS suitable for this setting. A colleague in Melbounre, who herself has been using KOHA for only a matter of months, recommended that I try KOHA. I have waited a month but yesterday a computer was delivered to my desk with KOHA installed. I sat down to assess it in order to determine that this is the right system for us here.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I like the look and I enthusiastically set out to set Parameters, before attempting to create any records. However - and here's my first problem for which I seek a solution via the koha list - as I entered information and clicked Enter or Submit, the next screen required me to login again! This happened every time I proceeded to a next page/screen! After about 30 times of this I was about ready to scream!!! I sought out the IT fellows who had installed the program from the downoad. One of them assured me that this is normal, it's the way the program is written. I cannot believe this. Can someone in koha land please resolve this for me? I need to decide by Monday whether to go ahead with KOHA, as I have only 9 weeks remaining here and cannot afford to waste time playing around with programs!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please HELP!</div>
