Hi. I have a book collection and I'm looking to organize it. Mostly I want to find the Library of Congress classification for each book and order them on the shelves that way (e.g. PN6231.E4H3). It would be really neat to be able to search the collection too and to let friends see which books I have. I have found a few programs that might do this (one, tyrannio, does almost exactly the above but doesn't work). Koha looks promising and it runs. Does KOHA support the LC call number? Where should I look to add it (I'm a computer scientist). Thanks. - Daniel Holth

Hi Daniel It sort of does :) There is a field in the biblioitems table of the database, called lccn where LC numbers are stored. And in the simple acquisitions module, you can enter the lccn in there. What im not sure on, is whether it is being displayed anywhere. It certainly would not be a big job to get it to display tho. Ill take a closer look after work tonight and see if it is displaying anywhere and if not, let you know how to get it displaying.
