We have updated the program for the KUDOSCon 2011 conference which is being held in Madison, WI on May 2 and May 3 2011. Featured are: - Koha 3.4 update by Koha Release Manager Chris Cormack of Catalyst IT Ltd. (piped in from New Zealand) - Presentations by representatives of all 3 major US Koha support vendors/developers - Lots of networking opportunities! - An unconference <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference> on May 3 - KUDOS meeting http://kudos.koha.org/kudoscon2011/conference-program/ This conference will be one of the least expensive conferences you will ever attend: - Thanks to our sponsors, there is no registration fee - We have great deals on hotels<http://kudos.koha-community.org/kudoscon2011/accommodation-in-madison/> - The hotels provide free shuttles from the airport - There are lots of low-cost eating establishments within walking distance of the hotels and conference center - It is not that expensive to fly into Madison (check it out); and you can always fly to Chicago and take the bus We now have two hotels within walking distance of the conference center (free shuttle also available from the Concourse Hotel). See the conference hotel page for booking information. http://kudos.koha-community.org/kudoscon2011/accommodation-in-madison/ And if all of this is not enough incentive, Madison is a fun place! Plus, you might get to see a few protesters. http://kudos.koha-community.org/kudoscon2011/what-to-do-in-madison/ -- Vicki Teal Lovely Helping our 52 member libraries provide the best possible service to the public.

Good Afternoon All I have been on the list before briefly - however we have now downloaded and installed Koha, and need to get up and running. I am wondering if there is an idiot's guide out there. My key issue at the moment is that I am having problems setting up the name authority file, and need some guidance - any pointer would be gratefully received.

Hi, I found the book 'Koha 3 Library Management System' by Savitra Sirohi & Amit Gupta (Published in 2010 by Packt Publishing) very helpful.

Hi,

It is a little out of date now, but combined with the Manual (which is up to date), not a bad place to start. Another good resource is the newbie guide at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Newbie_guide Chris
