Today George and Christopher go over some of the newest features that come with Koha 25.11. While not a complete coverage of all the new bells and whistles, this is a short list of features they feel are noteworthy, and some thoughts they have about these enhancements. Whether you are gearing up for this upgrade, or you have already upgraded and haven't touched all the new features, this episode should shed some light on new aspects for 25.11 that you should be noted. https://youtu.be/aICtx1AqHQk Respectfully, Christopher Brannon koha-US Admin

Hello, Philip Orr and I, on behalf of the Documentation team, would like to invite you to the next Koha Documentation drop-in sessions. These are informal sessions to discuss or work on anything related to Koha Documentation. They are open to both brand new and experienced Documenters, as well as curious Koha community members. We can guide you through your first contribution to the Koha Manual, help you resolve issues with your GitLab merge request, talk about content development, explain how to help with automated screenshots... Sometimes there will be a lot of talking, sometimes we'll each work on our own thing companionably for a bit! The session is really what the participants want it or need it to be. Upcoming sessions: * Thursday 16 April 12:30-15:00 UTC * Tuesday 12 May 13:30-16:00 UTC All the details - including timezone calculators and joining link - are at: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Documentation_Team_-_Drop-in_sessions We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming session!

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
