Hi There are some books in my library that we would like to remove from our Library to some other location. More like donating the books. I would like to supress the books from OPAC searches and annotate the item records as withdrawn from the system. How do I go about doing it.

barcode scanner
by Barbara Aristidou 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

hello there i need your valuable help :) i have some questions in relation to barcodes. instead of using the barcodes created by koha we bought pre-printed barcodes. is it possible to import those barcodes we bought using a barcode scanner? keep in mind that the barcodes we bought are nine digits while the ones created by koha are eleven digits. also is it possible when scanning the barcodes to have a prefix attached to each barcode automatically, based on the library code. thank you in advance!

Check your current system and see what formats it will export. The best is MARC or UNIMARC, if not CSV will work, but you'll have to convert it to some form of MARC before you import it.

Hi from a total Koha beginner
by Gianfranco Nicola 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

Hello everybody, I have just subscribed the list, so let me say a little about me. My name is Gianfranco; I live in Torino, Italy. I am an IT Professional - a developer for a big software and IT consultants company, since 1996. In the spare time I work as a volounteer at the Museo Ferroviario Piemontese (Piedmont Railways Museum), and of course I manage all the IT infrastructure of the museum. At MFP we are all volounteers, there are no employees. I came across Koha and this mailing list while i was searching for a replacement for our library software, which runs on a very old PC, that is about to stop working; since we cannot reinstall our legacy software anymore (the setup disks are lost, and the manufacturer has gone), we need a new program. So I found Koha, and I am evaluating it to understand if it can fit our needs - before developing a new application from scratch myself, which I would prefer to avoid (no time and no will... ) if possible. Installing Koha was a piece of cake - in a couple of hours or so i had a test instance up and running with no trouble. I tried to enter a test book from my home library, and everything was fine. But now I am trying to figure out how to import data from our legacy software, and how to teach our library guy to use this new program, bearing in mind that neither him, nor me, are librarians. Actually I am as confused as possible, so I am going to ask your help and guidance in deploying the production environment. Moreover, I am a bit in a hurry, because I don't know how much our old PC will still be working. I searched the Internet and this list for the past ten days, but I found no answer for my questions (for sure, most of them are due to I haven't no skill about libraries and librarians). In a next message I will post some of my major questions; I hope someone will help me. Many thanks in advance and best regards, Gianfranco Nicola Museo Ferroviario Piemontese --- Questa e-mail è stata controllata per individuare virus con Avast antivirus. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
