Is it possible to reserve available books?
by Michael Kuhn 02 Feb '17

02 Feb '17

Hi In Koha it is possible to place holds on books that are CHECKED OUT. Is it also possible to place a reservation on a book that is NOT checked out? The idea is that the user is at home, finding an interesting book in the OPAC - the book is available but he cannot go immediately to the library to pick it up. Thus he wants to place a reservation on the book so noone else can check it out - the library will then take that book out of the shelf waiting for the user to arrive at the library. This means: * In the OPAC there has to be a possibility for the user to place the reservation * The library needs to be informed so the book can be taken out of the shelf, waiting for the user Is this possible in Koha?

Re: [Koha] Authority

Hi All, TOBB University of Economics and Technology, Ankara, Turkey, Library has recently moved to Koha from a local software, and my response might be irrelevant, but I would like to share our experience. When we merge two authorities in the Authorities Module, the result does not show up immediately. I gather Zebra takes its time to process for a couple of minutes. I wonder if the result was expected to be seen immediately. In our case I tried to reprocess an already processed authority and an got error prompt simply because I hadn't realized system's need for time at that stage.

And to link the authority record to the bibliographic record you will need to run the cronjob called link_bibs_to_authorities.pl But before you enable that cronjob check the Authority system preferences to be sure they will behave in the way you want them to. joy On Thu, Feb 2, 2017 at 9:50 AM, Luis Moises Rojas <lmoisesrojas(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Sorry > > Is the authority record not showing up in search results when you look for > it? > Are you expecting the authority to link to the bibliographic record? > > We need both > > On Thu, Feb 2, 2017 at 11:46 AM, Joy Nelson <joy(a)bywatersolutions.com> > wrote: > >> When you say 'it is not update' can you explain a bit more what you are >> expecting to see happen? >> >> Is the authority record not showing up in search results when you look >> for it? >> Are you expecting the authority to link to the bibliographic record? >> >> joy >> >> >> >> >> On Thu, Feb 2, 2017 at 9:37 AM, Luis Moises Rojas <lmoisesrojas(a)gmail.com >> > wrote: >> >>> Hi, >>> >>> Where could activate: merge_autority.pl? >>> >>> When we type a new Authorities it is not update. >>> >>> What are we doing wrong? >>> >>> >>> -- >>> *Luis Moisés Rojas P.* >>> _______________________________________________ >>> Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org >>> Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz >>> https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha >>> >> >> >> >> -- >> Joy Nelson >> Director of Migrations >> >> ByWater Solutions <http://bywatersolutions.com> >> Support and Consulting for Open Source Software >> Office: Fort Worth, TX >> Phone/Fax (888)900-8944 >> What is Koha? <http://bywatersolutions.com/what-is-koha/> >> >> > > > -- > *Luis Moisés Rojas P.* > > -- Joy Nelson Director of Migrations ByWater Solutions <http://bywatersolutions.com> Support and Consulting for Open Source Software Office: Fort Worth, TX Phone/Fax (888)900-8944 What is Koha? <http://bywatersolutions.com/what-is-koha/> _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Hi Michael, It's possible. You just need to update circulation policy and hold policy.

Common error handling in KOHA
by Rejeesh K.Nair 01 Feb '17

01 Feb '17

Hi All, I need to implement common error handling page in KOHA. The scenario is like , if we got an error which displays the folder structure see for example *"usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/tools/batch_delete_records.pl <http://batch_delete_records.pl> line 91". *Folder structure error message might be the security flaw of our application. Is it possible to redirect it to a common page whenever this scenario occurs? Kindly help me out to resolve this.
