Hi,
I already have OPACShowCheckoutName turned ON but, I can't see the name of
the patron who has checked out a book, ?in the OPAC.
We have Koha version 3.00.04.019 and our library is a Corporate site Library, so we want to see the borrowers name.
Regards,
Harry

Hi!
It sounds like you want to display the name of the patron who has
checked out a book, in the OPAC? If so, I think this syspref should do
the trick:
OPACShowCheckoutName - Displays in the OPAC the name of patron who has
checked out the material. WARNING: Most sites should leave this off.
It is intended for corporate or special sites which need to track who
has the item.

Hi,
Is there a system preference which can be used to display the patron's name in the catalog detail screens of the OPAC?
Similar like the HidePatronName preference which displays the patron's name on the holds and catalog detail screens in the staff client
Thanks,
Harry

I am very interested in an ILL module too - having worked as an ILL librarian for several years it's one of the very few things that stand out as "missing" in Koha, in my eyes. I also think that Norwegian librarians are used to having this functionality integrated into their ILS, as opposed to et least some other countries, where I understand that the norm is to deal with this functionality outside of the ILS. Unfortunately, here in Norway we have our very own ILL standard or protocol, called NILL, which is documented, in Norwegian only, here: http://www.biblev.no/nill/ Basically the protocol consists of a set of XML messages that are passed between systems over e-mail(!). Now, NILL may or may not be of interest to libraries outside Norway, but I am thinking that at least some functionality will be of common interest, and that there could be a choice of different protocols, or an easy way to adapt the core functionality to different protocols. I am but a tiny vendor trying to attract my first customers, but I certainly hope to be able to find a library that could be interested enough in Koha to be willing to sponsor some work on ILL and NILL. In the meantime I am more than willing to contribute time and any knowledge on the subject that I may have, in order to help Koha get an ILL module up and running.

We have a couple of prospective customers that are currently using ILL on their existing systems and a few customers who are likely to be interested. We have not worked out a spec yet or the funding, but have been discussing doing so. Folks here developed the Interlibrary Loans for Unicorn in the UK so we have some experience of developing this and understanding the workflow. That was done with the Unicorn API and without access to the source code, so it can only be easier on Koha. The UK libraries make much use of the British Library Document Supply Service but also often interlend between institutions. Both of these are often required or highly desirable by UK libraries. Is there any more interest out there? All the best. Ian On 10/02/2010 09:15, Magnus Enger wrote:

They use a format called ARTTel (it's a plain text format, pretty basic). There is a call for some other formats though, mainly a generic type letter and also the BMA (British Medical Association). ISOILL never really kicked off and we don't really hear of any call for this. I think, ideally, something where you could plugin extra formats would be ideal so that they could be added to on a regional basis or as the need arose. I know Spain and Denmark have regional formats. Jonathan On 10/02/2010 10:17, Magnus Enger wrote:

The British Library have their own ARTEL service which has its own online protocol or you can communicate with it using emails formatted according to their rules. I understand that the implementation of ISO10160/1 never really took off. Ian On 10/02/2010 10:17, Magnus Enger wrote:
