Zebra printers and workflow
by Chad Roseburg 27 Oct '20

27 Oct '20

Hello fellow Koha-ites ~ We have been using dot matrix printers for labels since time beyond the memory of any human now living. Supplies for these will be discontinued in 2021. We plan to migrate to Zebra/Thermal printers and I'm wondering what models you've had great success with and what your software/workflow looks like. Thank you!!! Chad -- Chad Roseburg Assoc.

Re: [Koha] Add 999$c to Zebra index
by dcook＠prosentient.com.au 26 Oct '20

I have a fair number of libraries using EDS (in Australia), and EBSCO doesn't use Z39.50 for any of them. EBSCO harvests the records using OAI-PMH and then they use the ILS-DI API for the RTA (Real Time Availability). I think Wolters Kluwer's Ovid does the same thing. Joel, if "find @attr 1=12 59" is failing, I'd say it's either an implementation-specific indexing or searching issue. I can assure you that 999$c is indexed as "Local-Number" by default. I use it all the time and have for years.

Missing Biblionumbers in Search
by Jan Michael Mück 25 Oct '20

25 Oct '20

Hello, i cant access the Details page from my search results. There is no Biblionumber present in the generated Link and I will be redirected to an Error 404 Page. If I enter the Biblionumber manually it works flawlessly. If I klick on a Link from my "shopping card" it also works perfect and the Link is complete. Kind regards Jan

Kia ora koutou One of the events we had planned for Kohacon20 was having Aleisha's very talented brother, Isaac, DJ a dance party for people. Of course as with most things this year we can't all do that in person anymore. But never fear you can join in from the comfort of your own own home. From 8pm NZDT tonight you can listen/watch the stream here https://twitch.tv/epicseal1163 Hope you enjoy a little dance with your breakfast, lunch or evening whatever timezone you may be in.

CHAT: A gift to the world from Tom Lehrer
by King, Fred 23 Oct '20

23 Oct '20

(I posted this to MEDLIB-L, so apologies to the Koha medical librarians and others who receive duplicate e-mails.) Esteemed Colleagues, Chances are that if you are of A Certain Age or a computer geek (I'm both, so don't take umbrage), you grew up listening and quite often memorizing the songs of Tom Lehrer. I am delighted to say that not only is he still alive at the age of 92, he has also posted the following on his web site, https://tomlehrersongs.com/: I, Tom Lehrer, and the Tom Lehrer Trust 2000, hereby grant the following permission: All the lyrics on this website, whether published or unpublished, copyrighted or uncopyrighted, may be downloaded and used in any manner whatsoever, without requiring any further permission from me or any payment to me or to anyone else. Some lyrics written by Tom Lehrer to copyrighted music by others are included herein, but of course such music may not be used without permission of the copyright owners. (The translated songs may be found in their original languages on YouTube.) In other words, all the lyrics herein should be treated as though they were in the public domain. It continues, but that's the gist of it. I knew all of the songs that appeared on his albums, plus a few extras like the Subway Song, but a lot of them were new to me. The site shuts down at the end of 2024, so download them while you can! And if you're unfamiliar with Tom Lehrer, see https://www.youtube.com/user/6funswede. NOW! (My favorite, I think, is the Irish Ballad, which I learned when I was maybe nine years old-My parents had his original record. How about you?)

Add 999$c to Zebra index
by Coehoorn, Joel 23 Oct '20

23 Oct '20

Does anyone have a step-by-step guide for adding the biblionumber to the zebra index? I need it to set up integration with a discovery service, so the discovery search can include both our Koha catalog holding and our subscribed online resources that are not in Koha. I've seen this link: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/How_to_add_new_zebra_index But it's not clear on whether or why to use index_data_field vs index_sub_fields, how to pick the right attribute number, and other things like that, and I can't find any more complete documentation.
