Changing output format for staff- and patron-generated lists
Is it possible to change the output format for lists generated in OPAC? Koha provides a link to email lists to other users, but, according to Koha, the lists are only viewable in ProCite, Reference Manager and EndNote. Is it possible to output these lists to other file formats, such as Excel or Access?

Of course it's possible, but it's a question of finding someone to implement it. If you don't have the resources to develop a feature like this in-house or sponsor someone else, you could at least get the process started by filing an enhancement bug in Bugzilla. Filing a bug gives you the opportunity to describe the feature you want. Even if you can't sponsor the development filing a bug means that Koha developers will hear about your idea and may take it up in the future. It also gives other Koha users the chance to discuss the feature and contribute ideas on how it should work.

Hi As far as I know, there is a CSV export of lists developed by an obscure french firm that has been integrated into Koha some time ago which should fit most of your needs. You may take a look at csv profiles in the manual. Hope that helps. -- Henri-Damien LAURENT
You may take a look at csv profiles in the manual.
http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-4-manual-en/?ch=x6322 According to the manual, CSV download will appear alongside the iso2909, RIS and BibTex options if you have defined a CSV export profile. However, in 3.4 and the version we're using in production (3.03.00.019) CSV export profile creation seems to be broken. Give it a try and let us know if it's working for you. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
