FYI, I responded to Josh too...with slightly different answers! I wish the Koha list "replied to all" by default..... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lori Bowen Ayre <lori.ayre@galecia.com> Date: Tue, Jul 31, 2012 at 8:10 AM Subject: Re: [Koha] KOHA Hold Settings & Costs To: Josh Mikow <joshmikow@gmail.com> Josh, 1. Yes, see the emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced<http://manual.koha-community.org/3.10/en/administration.html#emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced> system preference. 2. I think you have to create a manual invoice for lost items. See http://manual.koha-community.org/3.8/en/patroninformation.html#patronfines 3. See the circulation fine rules table. More info here: http://manual.koha-community.org/3.8/en/patscirc.html#circfinerules 4. yes. The answers above can be dug up from the documentation which is more complete for version 3.8 than 3.10 but you can find what you need with some poking around. See http://koha-community.org/documentation/ for both manuals.

Good Afternoon,
I'm a tech person who is working with our church librarians to upgrade their software and they asked me a few things about KOHA that I'm not sure about.
1. Can we have an email sent whenever a hold is placed on a resource by a patron? This would allow us to notify the librarians so they can pull the resource. 2. How do we set the replacement costs for a resource? 3. How do we configure the system to automatically set fines for resources that are checked out? 4. Is there a way to show the amazon image of a resource if we don't have one available?
We're currently on version 3.8.03 and I really don't know anything about library management so any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
