Overriding current checkouts allowed
by ShaneGreen 04 Aug '13

04 Aug '13

We have a librarian who constantly overrides the circulation rules we set up for "current checkouts allowed". We don't want her to be allowing people to check out a dozen dvds at a time. Is there a setting I can change to prevent overriding this rule? -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Overriding-current-checkouts-allowed-tp57… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Batch process several holds for an item record.
by Jurgens Breytenbach 03 Aug '13

03 Aug '13

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to batch load several patron holds per biblio/item record. What I mean is, currently to place a hold on an item I can only enter one patron, then save the hold, then enter the next patron etc. If I have a list of say 5 patrons that all want to reserve this title, is there a way to batch upload all five patron barcodes in order of first second etc. for a single title? Cheers, Jurgens

How to know libraries that use Koha?
by Daniel Berthereau 02 Aug '13

02 Aug '13

Hi, It may be interesting to know the number of libraries that use Koha in a country, in particular to defend collective interests of users of Koha. But, because Koha is a (really free and really good) open source project, it can be difficult to know them. There is local or national communities, but no one is forced to enroll, fortunately. Two non-exclusive possibilities can be used to know that, but it implies an intervention of koha-community.org. - The first one is declarative: during Koha installation or later, it can be suggested to the librarian to inform koha-community.org via a form in Koha. - The second is automatic: add a little script in Koha (five to ten lines) that check the current version number of the release, so koha-community.org can check and geolocalize logs and build a map of all implantations in the world. It can be used to inform librarians too that its Koha installation needs update or upgrade, in particular when there are security alerts. In fact, this is a mechanism used by many CMS. For example, on the homepage of http://drupal.org, we can know the number of installations in the world and their location. It uses simply a mechanism that checks the current version and security alerts via a little file containing last release numbers on the central server. Is there a project to implement such things? Sincerely, Daniel Berthereau
