Kia ora, We've recently installed Koha in our library and are in the process of familiarizing ourselves. Have looked at the Librarian's manual and I have a couple of questions. 1. Subject authority files, receiving message that subject 'does not exist in authority file and click submit to force the subject' ??!! 2. Material formats - i.e. CD ROMs, videos, journals, books - how are these set? Many thanks Bernadette Cassidy Library & Learning Coordinator, Allan Bean Centre, Burwood Hospital Private Bag, 4708 Christchurch, NZ. Tel: (03) 383 9492

We've recently installed Koha in our library and are in the process of familiarizing ourselves. Have looked at the Librarian's manual and I have a couple of questions.
1. Subject authority files, receiving message that subject 'does not exist in authority file and click submit to force the subject' ??!!
The way that the authority file works at the moment is best explained by thinking of it as a virtual authority file. If you try to add a subject that doesnt currently exist, it will squeal. This is just a simple check to hopefully catch typo's etc. Work is being down to formalise the authority files and build in the concepts of SEE Instead, etc.
2. Material formats - i.e. CD ROMs, videos, journals, books - how are these set?
Which version of Koha have you installed version 1.2.3? Chris -- Chris Cormack Programmer 027 4500 789 Katipo Communications Ltd chris@katipo.co.nz www.katipo.co.nz
