Hi Amanda, What a terrible situation you are in. We are a Koha support company in Sydney. If you'd like to give us a call, we can talk you through the various tables and data fields that might be useful, if that will help (gratis of course). We'll actually be in Brisbane next week for Linux Conf if that is relevant to you. Sorry about your circumstances.

Hi All, I'm hoping I can get some advice with regard to pulling data from Koha. My library has recently been completely inundated during the Brisbane floods and nothing was saved except the library catalogue on Koha! I am the current librarian, however, I have only been in the position for four weeks and have not had a chance to learn the ins and outs of Koha. I am also not a techie so am relying on IT staff to assist with my queries which has not proved successful as they are off recovering other parts of the organisation's network. In order to create an inventory of the library collection for insurance purposes I would like to export data from the following fields and dump them into an Excel create an spreadsheet. The data I need are from the following fields: Item type Title Publisher Date ISBN ISSN Item count Location Barcode Can this be done from the back end of Koha and if so, how do I do it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, keeping in mind I am not familiar with this database at all and will have no IT support. Many thanks, Amanda
