Dear Koha-Community, First of all, thank you very much for a wonderful open-source library automation software. We are setting up 'koha' in our office library. As part of this, we installed 'Koha 2.0' and the DB being mySQL on RedHat 9.0. Here, we're having few concerns: 1. Is there a screen through which, we can 'Issue a book?'. We tried and found a screen like that. But, has not been able to figure out, how exactly, we say 'issue a book' 2. Is it mandatory to use 'barcode system' to issue books?. If yes, could you please provide any links/resources from which we can have technical specifications of the barcode to be acquired for the s/w setup. Thanks, Vijay "The oppressive atmosphere in most large companies resembles downtown Calcutta in summer. We intellectualise a lot in management.
