Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the following information within KOHA. IP address of the ILS Z39.50 server Port that Ze9.50 searches use Database name. I have looked into the Z39.50 server information under the caption Additional Parameters in the KOHA admin section. And found information, but I just want to double check if this is it. Thanks

Displaying unique title and volume count on the Koha staff client
by Indranil Das Gupta 15 Dec '17

15 Dec '17

Kia Ora! Erstwhile SOUL and e-Granthalaya users from India, when they shift to Koha, often want a at-a-glance heads up view of the count of unique titles and number of copies which is there in SOUL and e-G. So, in memories of Santu Mondal, a young library professional, who left us untimely this day two years back, I'm sharing this new blog post on an upgrade-friendly way to display unique title and volume count (live data) on the Koha staff client using Koha’s SQL report facility in tandem with Koha’s Reports web service API pushing JSON formatted data and some Javascript. The solution is based on a SQL report available on the Koha wiki. "Displaying unique title and volume count on the Koha staff client" - http://blog.l2c2.co.in/index.php/2017/12/15/displaying-unique-title-and-vol… Here is a screenshot - http://bit.ly/2o5vSZk cheers, idg -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 WWW : http://www.l2c2.co.in Blog : http://blog.l2c2.co.in IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg

Re: [Koha] How to import records with number of item in Koha
by Randy Wright 15 Dec '17

Koha will import multiple items from the 952 field(s) in you MARC records. It sounds like your problem is in getting the Excel file converted to MARC. I would suggest that you ask the question at the MarcEdit list: https://listserv.gmu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=marcedit-l Be sure to include a sample of your Excel file.

Record not found in "Cataloging search" until after CKI
by Christopher Davis 14 Dec '17

14 Dec '17

Dear Colleagues, There is some strange behavior in our system which I would not believe happens had I not witnessed it myself. There are a number of items which, when the barcode or the ISBN are scanned, fail to show up in a "Cataloging search" (Koha>Cataloging>"Cataloging search") or a "Search the catalog" search (Koha>Cataloging>"Search the catalog") until after they are checked in. After they are checked in, then they show up in search results all the time. Why? Is this a indexing problem with Zebra? Thank you, Christopher Davis Systems & E-Services Librarian Uintah County Library cgdavis(a)uintah.utah.gov (435) 789-0091 <14357890091> ext.261 uintahlibrary.org basinlibraries.org facebook.com/uintahcountylibrary instagram.com/uintahcountylibrary
