credit card processing
by Melanie Hedgespeth 07 Jul '10

07 Jul '10

Does anyone utilizing the KOHA system allow patrons to pay fines/fees by credit/debit card? If so, what processor do you utilize? Do you use machines to swipe the cards or are there options to just use an online capability for entering card information? What accounting software do you use? (If possible, we would like to talk to you about how you balance the credit card payments with KOHA reports for fines paid, etc.) Thanks!

by Nitesh Rijal 06 Jul '10

06 Jul '10

Hello all. I tried to turn off the item type images by going to System Preferences > Admin > noitemtypeimages > ON, but it still appears in the advanced search. What may be the problem? I am using KOHA 3.00.03 in Debian Lenny Stable. Thank you. -- Nitesh Rijal BE IT rijal.it(a)gmail.com http://niteshrijal.com.np http://facebook.com/openrijal http://twitter.com/openrijal +9779841458173

Available vs restricted vs not-for-loan
by Bob Ewart 05 Jul '10

05 Jul '10

My chief librarian is trying to properly show books in the special collections area on the search page. We do have some books which are not available since they are stored off-site, usually second or third copies. Some books are rare and are not for loan, but they are available in the library. Others are restricted in that they are available and can be borrowed with the permission of the chief librarian or someone she designates. When I specify any value in field 7 (not for loan) the Location column on the search results says: 1 item No items available 1 unavailable ...Lent by permission (or some such) which my chief librarian finds confusing, since it is available How can I show the books as available for use in the library, and may be lent by permission? How do you treat reference books? They are available for reference but not for loan. -- Bob

Switching to Koha unsupported
by Keogh, Matthew 05 Jul '10

05 Jul '10

Dear all I work in a small healthcare library, based in a general hospital in west London with an expanding user-base and a diminishing budget. We need a replacement for our aging DOS based library management system, but can't afford a commercial solution. Koha seems to fit our purposes, but I would appreciate some idea of how feasible it would be to implement on our own - without using vendors such as PTFS? Two of us staff the library and we both have a reasonable level of IT literacy. We also have a supportive hospital IT department. I would be grateful if anyone could share their experience of setting up and using Koha unsupported. Many thanks for your help. Matthew Ealing Hospital Library
