koha frozen patron accounts - patch?
by Amy Schuler 15 May '12

15 May '12

Hello everyone, I am running Koha 3.06.04.000. When I log into my account (and other user accounts) I get the following message: "Your account has been frozen until 00/02/0". I believe I found this bug (7272, see link below) and see that a patch has been "pushed". Does this mean (1) patch is available (and if so-where?) or (2) patch is not yet available? Thanks so much! Amy http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7272 Amy C. Schuler Director, Information Services & Library Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies PO Box AB, 2801 Sharon Turnpike Millbrook, New York, 12545

Filter by LDR position "6"
by Hugo Agud 15 May '12

15 May '12

Hi We are using Koha 3.6.4 and we wish to add a filter by field (LDR position 6 "record type"). As this is not a zebra index, it is not searchabel now... we have several ideas on mind... for example we think we can limit by itemtype instead, it is quite similar OR even we can configure zebra to index LDR, but before of doing that.. I just wish to ask If anybody has any previous experience on filter by LDR Thanks a lot in advance Hugo -- *Hugo Agud - Orex Digital * *www.orex.es* * * Director Avenida Sarriá 29 · 08029 Barcelona <http://twitter.com/OrexDigital> :<http://orexsl.blogspot.com>hugoaguda - Tel: 93 539 40 70 Fax: 93 539 33 30 hagud(a)orex.es · http://www.orex.es/ No imprima este mensaje a no ser que sea necesario.

I am interested to know the experience of any libraries which are using Acquisition module to place printed order. Does it verify availability of a title against Catalog and on-order file before allowing to place order. -- Arup Raychaudhury

import records in marc display formats?
by smurfett＠gmail.com 15 May '12

15 May '12

Hi I'm sure this has been asked before but I didn't know what search terms to look for in the mail archives. I'm trying to catalog books using records from other libraries. Unfortunately, the only ones I can find are online and they display it in those nice marc formats like this: 001 054 020 09783848x8 100 1 $aLee, Harlety etc Is there some sort of script that will covert this web view into a nice marc record so that I can import it into Koha? thanks! nancy
