Koha needs a linux-based server. For a very small library with a single circulation desk and limited web presence, you could certainly install Ubuntu Desktop at the circulation desk, setup the Koha installation there, and use Chrome on the same machine. Typically, though, you want a dedicated server somewhere. A barcode scanner is just a fancy keyboard. Really. You scan a code, and it "types" what it scanned into whatever textbox has the focus. Any software system that supports keyboards supports barcode scanners. Not exactly sure what you're asking here. We've used an iPad to do inventory, but never to scan barcodes. Rather than a camera, we pair a bluetooth barcode reader to the iPad. The scanners can be had from Amazon for about $40.

Dear Community Support Team,

I am very new and glad that such software exists and great people supporting it.

I have following questions

1) Could this software be installed in a webspace and used or should this be in a standalone (local) computer ? 2) Could any barcode scanners be integrated with this software, to update whether it is loaned or returned or any specific way to scan the books ? 3) Is it possible to use a mobile camera to scan and update the software about the books?

Thanks and looking forward to knowing the answers.

regards, Karthick _______________________________________________
