Barbara, Not so much. The exercises we developed were more about handling common circ functions and helping users with their accounts. On Wed, May 19, 2010 at 1:32 PM, Barbara Keef <bkeef@windham.lib.me.us>wrote:
Thanks, Lori for your comment. The tutorials are good, but we were looking for something like the most common questions asked by our users and the easiest and most accurate way to get to the answers. Questions such as "What's the latest James Patterson book your library has? What children's books are about boys sharing an adventure?
Are your generic training exercises along those lines?
Thanks!
Barbara

Hi Nicole,
Useful links but those are not tutorials. And the only tutorials I see seem to focus on installation. Surely there are actual tutorials for circ staff??!
We created some generic training exercises for Evergreen and they might be modifiable for Koha without too much trouble.
Would that help, Barbara?

Barbara,
First, it's Koha - not KOHA - it's a maori word, not an acronym.
As for tutorials you can find the manual here: http://koha-community.org/documentation/
And then links to other documentation here: http://koha-community.org/documentation/other-docs/
Thanks Nicole C. Engard Documentation Manager

Has anyone devised a tutorial for staff using the KOHA catalog? Sample questions, searches, etc.?
