Non-public notes
by Robin Sheat 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

I have a situation where we want to have non-public notes attached to biblio records. There doesn't appear to be any way of doing this, so I was thinking of doing something along the lines of having (MARC21) 595-599 as private biblio notes, and 590-594 as public ones. I'm wondering if a) there's a better approach, and b) if this is something that would be generally useful and worth upstreaming. I think it'll take little more than a change to the XSLT/templates for the OPAC. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5957 6D23 8B16 EFAB FEF8 7175 14D3 6485 A99C EB6D

Has anyone come across any issues with printing barcodes on standard Avery5160 labels, through a laser printer? Smudging, etc? Would appreciate any recommendations otherwise. I know there are clear label protectors as well. Thanks Caitlin McGurk Head Librarian The Center for Cartoon Studies McGurk(a)cartoonstudies.org

Koha Installation Docs
by Nicole Engard 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

I have been getting a series of Tweets regarding Installation Documentation and while I am Doc Manager, this is not an area I have ever really focused on (nor do I have much experience with it). I wanted to share these with you all in case you know how to resolve some of the issues in question. -------- bigbrovar Bobby: if there is one thing #koha needs desperately its documentation. just watched 3 weeks of work go down the drain due to bad docs :( nengard Nicole Engard @bigbrovar I'd be interested in what documentation you were using and what you found bad about it ... #koha bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard http://is.gd/h1Bhg I think it could be more detailed. lots of assumptions that the users is skilled in koha bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard we have a solidly working koha 3.0.6 on ubuntu 8.04 which I installed from source because the docs was top notch. bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard another missing gap from this doc http://is.gd/h7vh6 is the lack of info on the koha commands koha-create etc no man pages nothing bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard also after I create a koha instances with koha-create who do I log and setup the instance? nothing is said about that. its really bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard documentation and frankly a waste of time. Koha could really do with a better documentation. which I could help but knowledge is bigbrovar Bobby: @nengard very limited. another day another debian server install due to incomplete docs. is there a good docs on how to install from src? bigbrovar Bobby: anyone knows a good docs on how to setup #koha 3.2 on linux (ubuntu/debian) the current doc http://is.gd/h7vh6 is so incomplete Thanks Nicole

As anyone ever looked into the usefulness of this code. It is code for doing self-check-out on Sirsi symphony with a WAMP server. Maybe not useful but in case it is...I thought I'd share it. http://code.google.com/p/open-source-self-check/ Lori
