<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Thanks, Lori for your comment. The tutorials
are good, but we were looking for something like the most common questions asked
by our users and the easiest and most accurate way to get to the
answers. Questions such as "What's the latest James Patterson book your
library has? What children's books are about boys sharing an adventure?

<div><br></div>Hi Nicole,
<div><br></div>
<div>Useful links but those are not tutorials. And the only tutorials I
see seem to focus on installation. Surely there are actual tutorials for
circ staff??! </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>We created some generic training exercises for Evergreen and they might
be modifiable for Koha without too much trouble. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Would that help, Barbara?</div>
