Hi Bastien,

Greetings from Ontario! You say that you're not an IT expert and that you do not have a linux server. I suggest that you have a look at LibraryThing's TinyCat <https://www.librarycat.org/>, a product that is aimed at small libraries. Because it is browser-based, no additional hardware is necessary and the technical management is minimal. In your situation as you describe it, building a bibliographic database in Koha could be challenging. Because LibraryThing already has amassed a large database and also has the facilities to import from many other databases, data entry in your distributed situation would, I expect, be more manageable. It's an interesting project you have in mind. Best wishes! Bob Elgie Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2019 16:52:41 +0200

Hey there, i found out about koha several days ago and i am really impressed and would love to use it. Unfortunately i am not IT expert enough to do it by myself and i do not have a linux server yet. I would love to have some support the system up for a special case.

I live in a network of villages that has close ties and we share a lot of things with one another. I wanted to create an online tool so private people in these villages can put their books in a database and offer them to be borought. It would be a decentralized library where you can browse the whole catalogue consisting of the books people insert in the database plus section for the place in which household this book can be found. It would be awesome if books can be put in the database by isbn number.

I do have my own webpsace for several webpages and my question is if there is anybody who would help me with that? I would appreciate it that very much.

Greetings from nothern germany
