Hi Today I was installing Koha 20.11.19 on a completely new virtual host using Debian 11. $ sudo cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11 main $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-cache show koha-common | grep Version Version: 20.11.19-1 $ sudo apt-get install koha-common mariadb-server In the output I see lines like: Get:16 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libcache-memcached-fast-safe-perl all 0.06-1~koha1 [7,410 B] Get:22 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libhttp-oai-3.27-perl all 3.27-1~koha+1 [92.7 kB] Get:16 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libcache-memcached-fast-safe-perl all 0.06-1~koha1 [7,410 B] Get:22 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libhttp-oai-3.27-perl all 3.27-1~koha+1 [92.7 kB] Get:36 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libmojolicious-perl all 9.90+really8.12-koha1 [794 kB] Get:75 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libjson-validator-perl all 5.99+really3.14-koha1 [54.2 kB] Get:85 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libmojolicious-plugin-openapi-perl all 5.99+really2.16-koha1 [57.1 kB] Get:88 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libpdf-fromhtml-perl all 0.31-1~koha1 [102 kB] Get:98 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 libtemplate-plugin-htmltotext-perl all 0.03-1koha1 [6,134 B] Get:99 http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 20.11/main amd64 koha-common all 20.11.19-1 [34.5 MB] Preparing to unpack .../523-koha-common_20.11.19-1_all.deb ...

Good morning, I am exploring the possibility of connecting Azure AD to Koha. Is this possible? Currently we export users and their information and import it into Koha. We would like this all to be part of our Azure AD experience. Secondly would we be able to connect Colleague UI to Koha?

Problem in creating new authority types
by Ms. Naveen Ali 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Dear All, I am trying to create new authority types in KOHA 21.11 on Ubuntu 20.04. I am following this documentation Create new authority type - Koha Wiki ( https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Create_new_authority_type ) In the section on Zebra, * I cannot understand how the att numbers are defined * I cannot follow the next two steps, which require record.abs file. I cannot find the file. Neither the one in biblios nor in authorities folder. I need to create two authorities, namely, publisher and place of publication to accommodate my existing data which I will be migrating to KOHA. Support will be greatly appreciated With best regards, Naveen Ali ITM-JE (EAKL) Inst Representative for HEC Digital Library Resources. NEDUET, Karachi.

Question about creating libraries in Koha -- possible bug
by Andy Boze 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

I have three separate instances of Koha 20.11.04. In one of them I want to create a new library. When I go to Home › Administration › Libraries I see no existing libraries listed in any of the three instances. If I click the "+New library" button, I get the form to fill out, and when I submit the form, I get an alert that the library has been created. The Libraries page still doesn't list any libraries. I can see that the new library has been added, since it is now an option when I create or edit a patron or if I set circulation and fines rules. I've tried a couple of the demo Koha systems at < https://koha-community.org/demo/ > and they show multiple libraries. Is there a setting that would prevent libraries from displaying or does this seem to be a bug?

CatSIG on June 2!
by Hernandez, Heather H 01 Jun '22

01 Jun '22

Hi, all! The next Koha-US Cataloging Special Interest Group ("CatSIG") meeting is this Thursday, June 2, 2022, at 8 PT, 9 MT, 10 CT, 11 ET (16:00 UTC) and you don't have to be a member of Koha-US to join us! You don't even need to self-identify as a cataloger! Join us for our usual roundtable of questions, solutions and resource brainstorming, tips, tricks, suggestions, bug & development awareness, and the usual laughter, fun, and fellowship to discuss anything cataloging, authority, or metadata related in Koha. Not sure if it's cataloging related? It probably is! Actual catalogers do attend, as well as the cataloging curious and those who have had cataloging thrust upon them! Information on joining us is on the Koha-US calendar: Events – koha-US<https://koha-us.org/events/> Can't make it? No worries--it will be recorded and available on the Koha-US YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/kohaUS/playlists (See the Cataloging Special Interest Group's playlist for more cataloging fun!) As ever, feel free to send me any questions or topics for discussion ahead of time! See you there! --h2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ms. Heather Hernandez (she, her, hers) Technical Services Librarian Library catalog: https://keys.bywatersolutions.com/ San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Research Center 2 Marina Blvd., Bldg.

OT question about book binding
by C.S. Hayward 31 May '22

31 May '22

I have a 1200 page Bible, hardcover, published by IngramSpark. It has a glue spine that is remarkably easy to snap. Will making a perfect bound paperback be less fragile? Will it be strong enough to satisfy buyers with standard expectations about book sturdiness? Thanks, Sent from Proton Mail for iOS
