[Koha] Fw: Libraries not independent as yet

[Ian Walls]

Steve,


Biblios are shared between all branches; there is no limitation of a biblio
to any specific branch.  It's the items attached to that biblio that belong
to a branch, and are kept independent by the IndependantBranches system
preference.  If you need to keep your cataloging completely separate, you'd
either need some development, or separate installations.
