Dear Vijay
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'
Yes - the word you are looking for is "Circulations" and is where you both issue and return books.
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.
You must have some way to identify each individual book if you want to issue them - it does not need to be a printed barcode, you can just put in your own numbers as long as each one is unique. If you have many books that you're needing to issue (like a public library), then printed barcodes are good because you can get barcode readers which is a lot quicker than typing in the numbers. Hope it helps Cheers Rachel _____________________________________________________________ Rachel Hamilton-Williams Katipo Communications WEBMISTRESS ph 021 389 128 or +64 04 934 1285 mailto:rachel@katipo.co.nz PO Box 12487, Wellington http://www.katipo.co.nz New Zealand Koha Open Source Library System http://www.koha.org
