Hi all, How to make a subdomain site (ex: catalog.example.com) is able to take advantage of Koha Multiple Instances[1] ? [1] http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installing_Multiple_Instances_of_Koha What configurations must be modified/added (beside Apache virtualhost configuration)? Thanks in advance.

Relevance
by BRANNON, CHRISTOPHER 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on how relevance is determined in the Koha catalog. Our consortium cannot figure out why things are in the order they are in when sorting by relevance. There is apparently no information handy on this topic. Any insight on this topic would be most appreciated! Christopher

Upgrade.
by Estel Porras 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

Hi All, just a couple questions. We have upgraded to the newest version of Koha, and there have been a couple changes that I don't care for. I was wondering if I can change them. 1. The first is when I am doing a checkout history query it gives me the listing alphabetically by patrons last name. It used to be by date, with the most current being at the top [of the listing]. This is much more desirable, and much less confusing. Can I get that back to the way it was? 2. When I check out to a patron it used to have the last item checked out at the top, now it can be in the middle somewhere. This is confusing if the scanner beeps [as happens here sometimes] and it doesn't really read the barcode. Consequently we need to make sure that the item has registered. When the item scanned was at the top of the list it was easy to keep track of, now if the customer has a dozen items, it takes time on every title [you have to look at the entire list]. There was something else, but I can't think of it right now. This list has been a tremendous help, so thanks to all. Have a great day, ~Estel~ Orland Free Library 333 Mill St. Orland CA. 95963 [530]865-1640

Please help me to solve this problem. Koha error The following fatal error has occurred: No branchcode argument to new.

Rv: Adoption of the I.L.S. Koha, for the National Library of Venezuela
by Ramon Figueroa 26 Jun '12

26 Jun '12

Caracas, June 21st2012 Koha Library Software Community Dear Sirs, It is a pleasure for us to announce you that the National Library of Venezuela, an Authonomous Institute of the Ministry of Culture of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, has adopted the ILS Koha, as the automated system for the management of our library information. The system is available on the Internet by the link to the Catalogon our website: (http//:www.bnv.gob.ve) with the following URL: http://sisbiv.bnv.gob.ve. The adoption of the ILS Koha is a response to guidelines and presidential decrees, that regarding the use of software, commit us to the implementation of software developed by the free software community and the abandonment of proprietary packages and licenses of both software and hardware. It is important to point out that at present we have available for the library's patrons the OPAC and the cataloging module, and eventually we will incorporate the remaining modules of the system. For two years we have been assessing the functionality of Koha and, simultaneously, we have been doing research to complete the transfer of data from the proprietary system previously in use by our institution (NOTIS) and now we are able to reveal those results to the public. We are very satisfied with Koha, since we consider it a great gift of the world library community. For this reason, we request you to incorporate the National Library of Venezuela as an active member of the community in order to share our experiences and contribute, to the extent of our capabilities, to the development and improvement of such a great system. Thanking you for your attention, we remain, Yours sincerely, Lic. Samyra Handam. Directora de la Oficina de Tecnología de la Información. Samyra.handam(a)bnv.gob.ve Lic. Engels Arismendi. Lic. Ramón Figueroa. Jefe de División de Sistemas. Especialista en Información Engels.arismendi(a)bnv.gob.ve ramon.figueroa(a)bnv.gob.ve

There's an excellent support list for MARCEDIT called MARCEDIT-L. Terry Reese, the author of the program monitors the list, and he will often offer solutions along with some of the other list subscribers. http://metis3.gmu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=MARCEDIT-L It's also a good way to give input on features you'd like to see or to find out whether someone already has solved a particular problem you're having.
