mailing list has moved (no change for you)
by Paul Poulain 18 Mar '26

18 Mar '26

Hello all, If this email reaches the 1020 list subscribers, it means that we (Simon Blake and I) have finished moving the list to a new server. Instead of being hosted by a dedicated server, it's now on mailinglists.net. History has been migrated as well. Nothing has changed for you, it's just a technical move. Enjoy your day or night, depending on your timezone ! -- Paul Poulain, Associé-gérant / CEO BibLibre, Services et logiciels libres pour votre bibliothèque BibLibre, Open Source software and services for your library

KohaCon27 will be hosted in Istanbul, Türkiye!
by Paul Derscheid 17 Mar '26

17 Mar '26

Hello dear Koha community, I am pleased to announce that KohaCon27 will be held in Istanbul, Türkiye, hosted by the Republic of Türkiye – Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Directorate General for Libraries and Publications, at Rami Library. The bidding period closed on 15 March 2026 with one proposal submitted. As the sole eligible bid, no vote was required. Türkiye is one of the most significant Koha countries in the world. Over 1300 public libraries operate Koha as part of a centrally managed national infrastructure. The community there has long been a quiet but substantial force in the ecosystem, and it is wonderful to see that translate into hosting the global conference. Thank you to the team at the Directorate General for Libraries and Publications for putting together a strong proposal and for taking on the considerable work of organizing KohaCon. Further updates will come directly from them as planning gets underway. More details, including the proposal website, can be found at: https://kohacon27.ktb.gov.tr/ I hope to see many of you in Istanbul in 2027! Warm regards, Paul Derscheid
