~~~ Information available in German only ~~~ Koha Installationsparty 01.12.2012 17:00 Uhr TH Wildau / Bibliothek Bibliothekssystem Koha - eine denkbare Alternative? Im Rahmen einer Installationsparty wollen wir das freie Bibliothekssystem Koha gemeinsam installieren und einen ersten Blick in das System werfen. In gemeinsamer Diskussion soll erörtert werden, welche Probleme ein eigener Betrieb des Systems als Alternative zu einem bezahlten Hosting aufwirft und welche Art von Unterstützung notwendig wäre, um als Bibliothek diesen Schritt zu gehen. Ziel des Abends soll sein, dass alle Teilnehmenden mit einer laufenden Koha-Installation und neuen Ideen nach Hause gehen. Die Veranstaltung findet zeitgleich zur Schmökernacht in der Bibliothek der TH Wildau statt. Beginn ist 17 Uhr, das Ende ist offen. Für Verpflegung ist gesorgt und es gibt Ruheliegen. Die Bibliothek schließt erst am 02.12. um 11 Uhr. Die Anzahl der Plätze ist begrenzt auf 12 Personen. Für eine Teilnahme schreiben Sie bitte eine Mail an bibliothek(a)th-wildau.de. Ueber Koha: Koha ist ein professionelles Bibliothekssystem mit allen wesentlichen Modulen. Es ist 'free and open source software' und kann ohne Lizenzkosten genutzt werden. Es wird in mehreren tausend Bibliotheken weltweit eingesetzt. Die Benutzung ist vollständig browserbasiert, der moderne OPAC verfügt über eine Vielzahl von Web2.0-Features.

Re: [Koha] Help with 'scan indexes'

Since ti index (a Zebra index) is fed up by more than one MARC tag, the query is not a scan. It is an advanced search (as the manual section title says). Scan means (in my opinion) to browse an ordered list (of authors, subjects, titles...) starting from an entry point. Anyway, in http://your_catalog/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl no buttons have value 'scan indexes' or something similar... Bye. Stefano

505 Enhanced Contents Note
by Charles Hill 13 Nov '12

13 Nov '12

Hello, My library recently made the switch to Koha, and I am thus still getting used to it. One major trouble I am having is with the 505 field if I want to include an enhanced (as opposed to simply formatted) contents note to allow patrons to access chapters of edited volumes by title/author searches rather than just keywords. I am used to formatting them as a chain of $t /$r within a single field, but since Koha has separate form fields for each subfield, I feel a little out to sea on this one. Every variation I try makes the display unusable and doesn't visually connect the $t subfield to the appropriate $r subfield in the OPAC. Do I need to repeat the entire 505 tag for each individual entry? I saw in the list archive that there is a bug-fix related to the 505 field, will this fix the problem, or is there some aspect of formatting that I am missing? Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you, Charles Ed Hill Natural Hazards Library - University of Colorado, Boulder

I'm trying to use XML export (of spine labels) in Koha 3.06.04.000, and I get an error: Software error: Global symbol "@label_ids" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/labels/label-create-xml.pl line 40.

Execution of /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/labels/label-create-xml.pl aborted due to compilation errors. For help, please send mail to the webmaster ([no address given]), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. It looks like there is a Perl module missing.

Chris' random request of the year
by Chris Cormack 12 Nov '12

Hi All So I have started to make a wall of library cards of libraries using Koha. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ranginui/8179693263/in/photostream I only have 5 so far, but I would absolutely love it if people were able to send me a card from their library. I think it would make a fantastic display and I will promise to take lots of photos of it (under a CC-BY-SA) license. As I said, a random request :) Thanks in advance Chris
