Dear Mr Satish, That is right I have done a similar configuration for a UP based medical university. But with minor modification/changes. Membership Type 1. SC Students 2. ST Students 3. General Category Item Type 1. Book (normal Koha defined book category) 2. Book Bank (BBK) Policy General Student : BK = 2 for 30 Days BBK = 0 books ST Students BK = 2 for 30 days BBK = 15 for 365 days SC Student BK = 2 for 30 days BBK = 15 for 365 days We went further they had a policy of not issuing books to PG students so we have taken steps accordingly. Feel free to contact for any clarifications.

Currently we identified, 3 types of students (patron category) as follows. 1. General Student 2. Student from SC Community 3. Student from ST Community. and item type comprises only Books. The collection comprises in only one location. 1. General Stack 2. SC Book Bank 3. ST Book Bank. And check-out criteria is as follows. 1. SC student can borrow max of 2 books from SC Book Bank ( for 1 semester) + 1 Book from General Stack ( for 15 days) 2. ST Student can borrow max of 2 books from ST Book Bank ( for 1 semester) + 1 Book from General STack ( 15 days) 3. General Student can borrow max of only 2 books (15 days) from General Stack, and no books are allowed for checking out from SC and ST Book bank . To work around, so for I tried to create, 3 item types - namely: 1. Books ( Default with koha) 2. SC Book Bank 3. ST Book Bank and with the help of circulation rules, (item type and patron category), load period and current checkouts have been updated accordingly and I am feeling so happy after doing this. Am I going in the right direction?? any other alternatives?? Thank You in advance. Satish Govt. Engg. College, Hassan Karnataka, India.

Hello Satish

Please state which version of Koha or Liblime Koha. Also, please explain how the different types of student are identified in Koha (patron categories?) and also how the different types of books are identified in Koha (item type? location? collection code?).

Depending on the version and what data is in Koha some of this may be achieved using the circulation rules.

Hello,

We have only one kind of patron's (student's) database with the library, and depends on the collection/library ( from general stack, SC book bank) patrons will be having restrictions to number of books to be borrowed and also the due -date attached to it.

Our scenario is: eg: General category student can take only 1 book from General Stack and due date is for 15 days and not from any other stack. where as, SC category student can take 2 books from SC book bank for 3 months and also 1 book from General stack for 15 days.

How to restrict patrons from checking out books from particular collection?

How to achieve this? Thank you in Advance Satish -- ______________________________**_________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/**mailman/listinfo/koha<http://lists.katipo .co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha>

Koha 3.0.6 does not support sets. There is a patch for this bug, but it is currently "Failed QA": "Bug 6440 - Koha's OAI-PMH does not support sets" http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6440 Hopefully that will be fixed, so setscan be available in Koha version 3.8.

This problem is to do with Zebra. Either its not started, or not configured correctly, or your indexes have not been created. Start at the last question on this page: http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
