Marc Templates in 3.0
by Marie Wardall 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

Our school district currently has two buildings using Koha. Over the summer we will be adding at least three more buildings that will be using Koha. One thing that has come up in our discussions is that in the current system they are able to add a vendors name and a funding source in the copy or item record area. I know I can enter the source of acquisition or the vendor in Marc tag 037, but is there a tag that I can add the funding source too? Will I still be able to add it to a template if it's not currently in the templates in 3.0? Is this something that could be added to the item record area or is that hard coded and can't be changed? An help would be appreciated. Many questions are arising and I want to be able to give the right information to the librarians without scaring them too much or giving them extra work.

windows kohaadmin default password???
by John 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

I have just managed to install koha for windows and it runs OK. I can get into it by typing 128.0.0.1 in the address bar. However before starting to enter data I want to get into the administrator's area. I have tried kohaadmin as the username but can't work out what the password might be. Can anyone help this newbie? thanks.

MARC field question
by wdpartners 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

This is more of a cataloging question than a programming one: I have an ipod loaded with audiobooks that I want to circulate to our library users. I need to barcode it as a single item, but I would like the titles of the audiobooks to be searchable using the "advanced search" title field. Since I cannot put in multiple title fields (245a), is there another field I can use that will let me put in multiple fields, but also be searchable in the "title" search field? I guess this would be similar to circulating a music CD and listing it's titles in the 505 2 field, but in my case, the books on my ipod are by different authors. I'm not really a MARC cataloger, so would appreciate any guidance! Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/MARC-field-question-tp15950907p15950907.html Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Koha 3.0 NoReturnSetLost preference
by Pauley 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

Good Morning; Is the preference NoReturnSetLost in Koha 3.0? I see it referenced in Context.pm but see no place to set/change it in System Preferences? It seems my books are getting set to lost right away but I cannot find this preference to turn it off/on. Thanks.

mysql 5.0 and Koha on Gutsy (Ubuntu)
by H.S. 10 Mar '08

10 Mar '08

Hello, A machine running Koha (still in the setup phase, not operational yet) was upgraded from Fiesty to Gutsy. However, this also forced an upgrade of MySQL from 4.x version to 5.0. Should there be a problem with Koha? If so, I will either try to downgrade MySQL on Gutsy (4.x version doesn't seem to be available for it, though) or maybe give Koha 3.0 a shot (if it works with MySQL 5.x). This is for a very small community library. What is the general advice about Koha 3.0 for this? thanks, ->HS

Loading records from book vendors
by David Schuster 10 Mar '08

10 Mar '08

I suspect people are doing this(Follett, Ingram, Baker and Taylor Marc records) - are you using the 952 tag for the local holding information and using bulkimport.pl to load items and bibs etc??? Playing with Koha. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Loading-records-from-book-vendors-tp15950895p15950895… Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Koha] [Koha-devel] Re: Follett to Koha 2.2.9 migration help
by Jesse Weaver 10 Mar '08

10 Mar '08

We've actually tested this at our library; 952c is the item type, and 947 holds the rest of the item info. It turns out that if anything on the same tag as the item is mapped to any other table, things break horridly. The MARC Check does show this, just not very clearly (some weird grumbling in the itemnumber check). Other than that, we haven't had any problems. None of Koha seems to assume that 952 must be the item tag. -- Jesse

Need Koha 3.00 (Zebra or NoZebra) guidance.
by hurrells＠hurrells.ca 08 Mar '08

08 Mar '08

Hello. I tried a complete koha 3.00 install with zebra. Koha works well, zebrasrv runs and lets koha search, however I get Error 109 messages as per my previous post. Rebuilt zebra indexes with no improvement. What I would like to know is: - Is there anyone who is using koha 3.00 with zebra successfully? - Are you using the stock koha 3.00 or something newer from git? - Any ideas what my problem is? - Any planned movement on a koha 3.1 or newer release candidate? I guess that I should either retry a complete install again or if nobody responds then I'll try going NoZebra. - Is this a better choice for stock 3.00? I've started taking a peek at evergreen as well but the non-web staff client is a bit of a disappointment over koha's web-centric approach.
