Understood, thanks.

Yes it helped a lot, thanks.
Reading your answer, I realize things are rather simple and perhaps not
worth a lot of writing in the manual or on the wiki.
Still, I'd appreciate it a lot to have a documentation that presupposes
less library science knowledge the manual does.

> PS: do you know there is also a french list, see http://www.koha-fr.org ?

Yes, I knew that, thanks. 
That said I thought the french list was more for things not of interest
to english speaking people.

Cheers,
Sébastien.
