[Koha] Request advice on setting up Z39.50 for catalogers

[Nicole Engard]

Nicole can certainly do that.  I also have included a link to the
IRSpy Z39.50 Directory on the Z39.50 page :
http://koha.org/documentation/manual/3.0/administration/additional-parameters/z39.50-servers/view?searchterm=z39.50

Will go add some tips to the documentation.  If you all send me your
usernames on koha.org I'll add you as contributors to the document.
