Contents of koha-zebra-daemon in /etc/init.d (Debian)
by Marty 27 Nov '09

27 Nov '09

Can somebody please send me contents of koha-zebra-daemon in /etc/init.d I have a standard koha installation, on Debian, with koha-zebra-ctl.sh in /usr/share/koha/bin For some reason I still have not been able to start the zebra server except manually and that just won't do. I have followed all the instructions, but I think something is wrong with the koha-zebra-daemon file. I cannot start the zebra server by doing /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon start. Please?

Cusat library adopts free software
by Vimal Kumar 26 Nov '09

26 Nov '09

KOCHI: Cochin University of Science and Technology (Cusat) library is taking the free software route thanks to ‘Koha’, an integrated library system being extensively used in libraries across the country and abroad. The engineering library of the university has been fully computerised using this free software. Surendran Cherukodan, Junior Librarian at the School of Engineering, Cusat, said that ‘Koha’ has many advantages and can be downloaded from the Internet free of cost. Highlights Some of the highlights of the free software include simple, clear interface for librarians and members, customisable search, circulation and borrower management, full acquisitions system including budgets and pricing information, simple acquisitions system for the smaller library, and ability to cope with any number of branches, patrons, patron categories, item categories, items, currencies and other data. Mr. Cherukodan said that around 30,000 books owned by the School of Engineering library can be searched through the ‘Koha’ online catalogue. The library catalogue is available on http://soelibrary.cusat.ac.in. The software will also update on the books available with the users and its date of return. Digital library The university has also set up a digital library by using ‘D Space’, another free software. Over 2,300 documents have been collected for the benefit of students and faculty members using this facility. Some of the documents available in the digital library include research papers of faculty members, seminar and project reports, syllabus of courses and contents of various journals. The digital library also has nearly 1,500 previous question papers for the benefit of students. Cusat digital library will be available on http://dpsace.cusat.ac.in/dspace.

The prices of flights will be significantly more expensive, as will the price of accommodation and internal travel. I live here, so that doesn't affect me at all, but definitely something to bear in mind for any people coming from overseas. Also the 28th of November is the NZ National Library conference in Dunedin, so those dates would rule out any of the NZ Koha libraries who wanted to stay for the workshops section. I think I'm pretty much talking myself into the October dates I'm afraid Ed. Chris -- Chris Cormack Catalyst IT Ltd. +64 4 803 2238 PO Box 11-053, Manners St, Wellington 6142, New Zealand

Reasonable membership dues, for either individuals or libraries, are supported here at our library, and I'm sure my director would give it positive consideration. I have my ALA membership paperwork tacked to the board in front of me, and I see we're paying $106 yearly for ALA ($40) + LITA ($60) for me, and I've only ever been to one LITA conference. I suspect some many tech people aren't high enough in the food chain to make it to ALA conferences. Just some of my random pre-2 Dec comments. The same comment also holds true for whatever organization might come from the nascent "Koha-HLT" effort. Greg Lawson Rolling Hills Consolidated Library 1912 N.
