Good morning folks, I'm new to Koha, having just committed to purchasing it for our school district. I was wondering where I could look for the best resources, skins, tweaks, etc.? Can anyone offer me any pointers? Scott Bourgoin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Technology Director M.S.A.D. 35 207-451-0009 (Cell) 207-384-4500 x2038 (Office)

Re: [Koha] Import problem in Koha
by Stephen Hedges 13 Apr '08

13 Apr '08

Hi, Bisu - The best place to get answers to questions like these is to post them to the Koha list, so I have copied your message there. Is it possible that you tried more than once to import your ISO file? That could cause the duplication. I don't completely understand your second question. Perhaps someone else on the list can help.

Fines for Short Loan Items
by Irene Sachs 13 Apr '08

13 Apr '08

We have installed Koha 2.2.9 on Windows XP. We have a problem with completing the system parameters for fines for our short loan reserve collection where items can only be borrowed for 2 hours. We tried inserting 0.2 in the number of days component but this did not work. Is there any way of using the system for loans that are in hours rather than days? Many thanks Felix Majawa _________________________________________________________________ You dream job is up for grabs. Grab it. http://mycareer.com.au/?s_cid=596065

Internationalisation
by Ratanak Chan 12 Apr '08

12 Apr '08

Dear Don Robertson, For translation to Khmer in Koha 2.2.9, we can add "khmer" language in directory: koha_directory\opac\htdocs\opac-tmpl\css. You'll see more languages in this directory, and than edit all files (*.tmpl). But when i view koha opac in browser (IE 6), it display "???????" when we choose "khmer" language. I don't know how to display khmer language in browser. If you have any idea, Please reply. Thanks!

ILS Basic Discovery Interfaces
by MJ Ray 12 Apr '08

12 Apr '08

Hi all! I just spotted a standard for OPAC web interfaces which LibLime seem to have signed up for last month. It's been under development since last summer, but it doesn't seem to have been mentioned on the list yet as far as I found. Could one of the LibLimers tell us if this applies to Koha and if so, why's it good for Koha and were any other Koha vendors invited to collaborate, get involved or even informed? "At the meeting, participants agreed to support a set of essential functions through open protocols and technologies by deploying specific recommended standards. [...] Undersigned by: [...] LibLime" Source: http://blogs.lib.berkeley.edu/shimenawa.php/2008/04/04/ils_basic_discovery Thanks, -- MJ Ray (slef) Webmaster for hire, statistician and online shop builder for a small worker cooperative http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ (Notice http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html) tel:+44-844-4437-237

innovative to koha?
by Cody Hennesy 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

Hello, Thanks to everyone who responded to my recent query about special collections in Koha. I was also wondering if there any libraries out there who have migrated from Innovative to Koha (or are considering doing so now). According to a Lib Tech Guides search (http:// www.librarytechnology.org/lwc-search-advanced.pl) there aren't any, and there's certainly not any Koha documentation that I could find on the subject, but I thought I should double-check with the list. Thanks, Cody ____________________________ Cody Hennesy Reference and Instruction Librarian California College of the Arts 510.594.3659 | chennesy(a)cca.edu
