We are using acquisitions and generally it works fine. Except couple things: 1. There is still a bug and I can not run a list of items received. There is an amount in a summary but not titles. I wonder if others are getting that list... 2. When the item is on order, you actually do not see that in OPAC. Our patrons only see the bib record without item attached. So you do not know if the title is on order or it is some kind of a error record without an item... 3. Receiving of multiple copies is time consuming as well. For example, we had 150 copies to receive and all of them had to be entered manually. If you have done it with 10, you should know how it feels to enter 150 barcodes, shelving places, etc.! I am not mentioning any nice things that Koha has... If you are looking for a free soft, it is still worth getting it!

I've been calling libraries in the U.S. that use KOHA and so far they all tell me that they don't use the acquisitions. Several have told me, "they've heard it leaves a lot to be desired," but can't give me a specific reason why. Any feedback?
