Hiya, I think this is really easy to make work (unless I';m misunderstanding the question). I'd just upload the digital file into Kete (a digital library ), then copy the url over into the Koha catalogue. It will need to be a hotlink of course, so 1 click to view the actual e-resource from the catalogue. I plan to do this with our local unpublished material, but know Walter and Chris are thinking about drawing search results from both Kete and Koha which may have a different solution or process. Cheers Jo. Am I being too simplistic? BWS Johnson wrote:
Salvete!
I'm looking at you New Zealanders. Is there relevant code in Kete that could be hybridised with Koha to do this? (Or probably more properly as a first step towards seeing this sort of functionality...) I have to wonder if this is summat that Jo would have wanted by now... How much of the graveyard search is automagic?
Cheers, Brooke
Assume a bibliographic record present in Koha with no physical copy attached to it. Then, you, as a librarian, want to attach a file to the bibliographic record. So you select a format, a filename which is stored on your hard drive and ready to be uploaded, and you submit all this information to koha. The file will be stored somewhere on a file server. The question is: which part of code should be modified so that Koha generateds atomatically a URL and stores it in a 856$u UNIMARC field of the bibliographic record. This URL should be a valid URL which gives the user an access to the file, perhaps by means of apache rewrite rules. The question is really: how to do to have KOha modifying the MARC records to store the right URLs. Moreover, I don't think this can be done with Koha so the real question is which script or module should I modify sto achieve such a result.
