Our librarian who is responsible for Serials asks about some properties in KOHA Serials modules. He has used Millennium ILS before. 1- Library Has: The library subscribes to a magazine and this field shows which issues are currently in the library. 2- In the "Status" of magazine, it will show that the magazine is in the binding office for repairs 3- The magazine's binding color Are these properties available in KOHA. If so is there any document about this subject.

cannot edit public list, follow-up/part 2
by Amy Schuler 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

Dear All Awhile back I posted that I had inadvertently done some things in root that I should not have done. Specifically, creating a public list that I am now unable to edit or delete. See original thread http://lists.katipo.co.nz/pipermail/koha/2014-February/038728.html. Following Robin Sheat's advice (thanks Robin!), I attempted to take ownership of that list according to the instructions here, http://lists.katipo.co.nz/pipermail/koha/2014-February/038751.html. As suggested in these instructions, I did first confirm that the list owner is null. However, upon trying Robin's instructions to take over the list, I got the following error: mysql> UPDATE virtualshelves SET owner=1082 WHERE owner IS NULL; ERROR 1452 (23000): Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`koha_library`.`virtualshelves`, CONSTRAINT `virtualshelves_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`owner`) REFERENCES `borrowers` (`borrowernumber`) ON DELETE SET NULL ON UPDATE SET NULL) Of course I have googled the error, but am not familiar enough with mySQL or database structure generally to make much sense of it. Can anyone translate this and tell me how to get past this error and achieve my ultimate goal of taking ownership of that list? I am running Koha 3.10.04.000, mySQL v. 14.14. Let me know if you need more info or details about the structure of my database. Please be explicit in your advice. Note that it took me a few weeks just to get to this point with Robin's instructions : ) Thanks to everyone, Amy Schuler Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies schulera(a)caryinstitute.org

Item Statuses
by Jordan Barker 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Hi, Does anyone know why the WITHDRAWN, LOST, NOT_LOAN, etc. statuses are separated in the items tables? I can sort of understand for LOST & NOT_LOAN since they specify different types of LOST & NOT_LOAN, but WITHDRAWN, DAMAGED, RESTRICTED just seem to be true or false type statuses. So I guess my real question is if I don't need to specify those different types of LOST or NOT_LOAN, should I just add statuses like LOST or ON ORDER to the NOT_LOAN Authorized Values and work from there?

marc21_leader.pl : how to change default values?
by Giuseppe Angilella 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Hi, how is it possible to change the default values filled in MARC subfield 000 by marc21_leader.pl, without editing the perl script itself? There seems to be no explicit way to do that in Home > Administration > MARC frameworks > Default MARC framework Many thanks, Giuseppe.

Re: [Koha] Koha import cyrillic (SOLVED)
by volkan sonmez 21 Mar '14

We solved our problem using MarcEdit. We converted cyrillic records to UTF8 using MarcEdit Character Conversion tool. Then imported to ILS from KOHA import page. -----Original Message----- From: koha-bounces(a)lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of MJ Ray Sent: Friday, March 21, 2014 1:52 PM To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] Koha import cyrillic volkan sonmez wrote: > We exported unimarc records from former library automation. But records are in cyrillic encoding (ISO 5427). In KOHA marc import page (web) (after uploading file in "character encoding" section) there is no ISO 5427 option. We tried other character encoding options. But we encountered weird characters on the screen. Is there any way to add ISO 5427 option to character encoding section. Not easily. Can you convert the exported file to ISO 10646 encoded in UTF-8? The yaz-iconv tool may help.

Asking how to set up the Overdrive API
by Agnes Rivers-Moore 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hello We have an Overdrive subscription through a consortium, and Koha 3.14. The Overdrive Developer Portal wants to know which APIs I am signing up for, and I checked off a few. While I wait for acceptance and the security keys - does anyone know which APIs I should ask for? That is, which one or ones are integrated into Koha? Are there any other settings that are needed for this to work? If anyone has this up and running I would like to hear about your experience. Thank you Agnes -- Agnes Rivers-Moore CEO / Chief Librarian Hanover Public Library 451 10th Ave, Hanover, ON, N4N 2P1 Tel: 519.364.1420 | Fax: 519.364.1747 Email: arm(a)hanover.ca<mailto:arm@hanover.ca> | Web: www.hanoverlibrary.ca<http://www.hanoverlibrary.ca> Please consider the environment before printing this message or attachments.
