Hi, Sharon. We're testing checkin/checkout sounds right now on our Koha system and should have it in production within the next week. We've also got direct-to-the-printer receipt printing working, as well, if anyone is interested. Richard Pritsky Carpenter-Carse Library Hinesburg, Vermont www.carpentercarse.org

Hi all, According to a chat I had with Owen on #koha, there has been some discussion of creating sound cues in the staff client with a 'small embedded flash file to play the sound." Our librarians want auditory feedback at both checkin and checkout, so they can interact with the books and patron, rather than looking at the screen after every scan to make sure the transaction was completed successfully. What is the status on this? Is it an enhancement that may be in 3.2?
