by Magnus Enger 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Dear Community, The deadline for proposals for KohaCon12 ended on September 1st, and we have two proposals: * software.coop and other tbc: Edinburgh, Scotland, UK * Washoe County Library System: Reno, NV USA http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposals_for_KohaCon12 I guess that means we have to vote on them. I have taken the liberty of adding this as an issue for the next general IRC meeting: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_Meeting,_7_September_2011 (To be precise: we should not do the voting at the meeting, but decide on how to do the voting ;-) The deadline for voting is October 1st! Best regards, Magnus Enger libriotech.no

Cataloguing Electronic resources
by library 03 Sep '11

03 Sep '11

Kia ora koutou I'm wondering how people are cataloguing websites and other electronic resources so that they are able to be searched by collection codes. I have trolled the net looking for discussions but have not found anything pertinent yet. The nub of the problem is that if they don't have attached items you cannot enter item types and ccodes, however I don't want to assign barcodes. Are there hidden snags if you have items without barcodes? What happens at stocktake when you have no actual item to stocktake? Is there a better way to do this? I have used item types to assign borrower privileges and ccodes as search points and I am just about to move from 3.2 to 3.4. Naku noa Ann Murphy Katikati College.

CataloguingLog problem
by Vitor Fernandes 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hi guys. Today i've noticed in one problem in my system preferences: the CataloguingLog preferences (on log tab) was turned off and should be on. Thinking that was someone that turned it off, I've checked the action logs (on log viewer and directly on database) and nothing was wrong. So my question is: there is some Koha process/script that turns off the log for cataloguing? I've suspected of script "sync_items_in_marc_bib.pl" but i've inspected the code and nothing suggest that. I'll appreciated any tips. Thanks in advance. Regards Vitor Fernandes

DateTime version problem
by Perch 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

I'm doing a new Koha 3.04.04 installation, but I'm having problems getting the DateTime perl module to work. CPAN seems to give me version 0.70 (Running make for D/DR/DROLSKY/DateTime-0.70.tar.gz...), but Makefile.PL insists that it's version 0.4304 (Warning: prerequisite DateTime 0.51 not found. We have 0.4304.). Maybe I have an older DateTime lying around somewere...? How can I fix this? -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/DateTime-version-problem-tp4762023p476202… Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

OSS ILS Resource Project
by Vandana Singh 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Greetings! This is a call for participation in an *interview* about Open Source Integrated Library Systems (ILS). This interview is part of a research project funded by IMLS comparing the technical support of Open Source ILS with the technical support of proprietary ILS. This is the third phase of the project. In the first phase we collected data regarding expectations of librarians for the technical support of their ILS. The second phase assessed the effectiveness of current ILS technical support. Thanks for your help if you participated in one or both of the earlier phases. We really appreciate the informative, quick and large number of responses we got!!! We hope you will participate in the current interviews, which will use the experience of open source software ILS adopters to develop a model for the evaluation, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of open source ILS. We would like to conduct the interview over the phone or in person and will be compensating for your time with a $25 gift card. If you know of anyone who would be interested in the study or in being interviewed please direct them to our site<https://sn2prd0202.outlook.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=oyU6ABlRpkm0lbpcIvRytD78oCe…>where they can find out more about the project. We are interested in learning about the experiences of libraries of different types and sizes and are interested in hearing from you even if your migration to an open source ILS is not complete. If you are willing to participate, please respond to this email with the subject phrase "ILS Interview" In the same email if you could mention · The type of library you represent and · The approximate size of you collection. We really appreciate your time and support and look forward to reporting back the results from this study! You can also direct any queries or suggestions to utk.ils.research(a)gmail.com<https://sn2prd0202.outlook.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=oyU6ABlRpkm0lbpcIvRytD78oCe…>with the subject “ILS Interview” in the subject line, or visit our Facebook page<https://sn2prd0202.outlook.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=oyU6ABlRpkm0lbpcIvRytD78oCe…> .

Subject: Re: Fulfillment and integration/connecting with Koha?
by Jim Minges 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

To follow-up on Liz Rea's post regarding FulfILLment & Koha in Kansas: FulfILLment is scheduled to roll out in Ohio around the end of the year. Our State Librarian, Jo Budler, proposed and provided funding for the project when she was Ohio State Librarian. After FulfILLment is fully operational in Ohio, the State Library of Kansas is planning to contract with NEKLS to pilot test it with our Koha system. I expect that will be well into 2012. If the test is successful, we are discussing the possibility of NEKLS managing a statewide FulfILLment implementation. I believe there are some additional ILS systems that will be included including Polaris and Autographics Verso. I think those four that Lori mentioned might have been the original four selected by Ohio. Jim "NEKLS and its member libraries are leaders and innovators in providing exemplary library services."

OPAC My Summary
by Olugbenga Adara 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

Hello all, I am currently testing the OPACMySummaryHTML feature in koha 3.4.4. I discovered that the link produced in the OPAC is prefixxed with (opac-ip)/cgi-bin/koha and then the link in the OPACMySummary system preferences. e.g. I put "<a href=”http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http://192.168.57.129:8000/cgi-bi…>Share on Facebook</a> in the systems preferences and the link it generates in OPAC is "http://192.168.57.129:8000/cgi-bin/koha/<a http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http://192.168.57.129:8000/cgi-bin/koha… >" The link works if it is without the http://192.168.57.129:8000/cgi-bin/koha/ Is this a bug or i am missing something?
