Hi All,

(Nicole- you may want to add this to the Newsletter)

We had a successful open day here in London, UK on 23rd April. Representatives from Camlis and the King's Fund spoke to a group of 10 librarians who are close to deciding to adopt Koha, or have newly implemented it. We kept it small and without representatives from any support companies so that it would feel informal, and to promote Koha without promoting any particular support option. Those attending got to ask plenty of questions and we also gave some live demonstrations of day-to-day Koha functions. We also showed a sneak preview of a feature-in-progress: to import book orders and marc records direct from our suppliers into the acquisitions module. I think we gave some users more confidence to make the change if they choose to. The open day/morning felt like a good model and a way of introducing potential users to each other, instead of us answering enquiries piecemeal. We hope to repeat the event on a regular basis, so please do register your interest with us if you'd like to attend in the future.

There were some questions about which companies offer support to the UK- we aren't sure where such a list is now held, or if it is up to date. Please make yourself known, or point me to a current list?

Best wishes,

Andrea
