Permission to catalog with certain framework or item type and other features
by schnydszch 28 Apr '14

28 Apr '14

Hello Koha community! This came up in one of the discussions with our Cataloging and Reference/Circulation staff. We have books and non-book item types (laws entered into the Koha ILS), the books are catalogued and entered into the Koha ILS by the Cataloging staffs. However, non-book item types such as laws and vertical files are entered into the ILS by the Reference staffs. These are done through the cataloguing module of Koha ILS. The Cataloguing Head is hesitant or does not want non-Cataloguing/Technical staffs to have access to the Cataloguing Module of our Koha ILS, just paranoid that records may get lost or deleted but I have already told them that there are precautionary measures to avert this like the Koha ILS' database is being backed up daily and it has audit logs so that it can be seen in the audit log which person did this and that. But I still have to convince the Cataloguing Head. So I'm thinking if a feature on permission to certain Frameworks or Item Types is under development for future release, or will this be a nice feature to file a bug for? Or there are libraries with same dilemma as we have? That a certain staff can only add, edit, delete certain records on a particular framework, or can add, edit, delete certain records with particular item type. There also came up in our discussion some sort of workflow wherein a cataloger added records into the Koha ILS, another cataloger checked and edited the record, and the Head Cataloger approves the catalogs. A MARC field of Encoders and Editors can be added to accommodate the names of the catalogers, and make this viewable in the Normal view. Although, this can also be viewable in the modification log, our superiors want to see the encoder (first person who worked on the catalog) and editor (the checker). I also thought since the Head Cataloger is not that techy be given a button interface that would make the catalog records ready to be viewable by the public. Any thoughts from other Koha users? OR will this be possible in the next releases? Thanks and more power! -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Permission-to-catalog-with-certain-framew… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

spammers using the list
by Elaine Bradtke 25 Apr '14

25 Apr '14

I first noticed this on Monday 21 April. I'm getting sleazy spam (complete with pictures) addressed to me, using the subject line of messages that I've sent to Koha. the last one is from jessica01(a)securedtexts.com with a link to superiorjob.org/jessica Because they're using the subject line of my Koha-list posts, they're sneaking in under the usual spam filters. My IT guru suspects someone has recently signed on to the list for nefarious purposes. Now I'm going to see if they send me another one with this subject line. . . -- Elaine Bradtke Data Wrangler VWML English Folk Dance and Song Society | http://www.efdss.org Cecil Sharp House, 2 Regent's Park Road, London NW1 7AY Tel +44 (0) 20 7485 2206 (This number is for the English Folk Dance and Song Society in London, England.

Is it possible to send an email saying a book is past due every week or so until it is finally brought back or declared lost?
