Hi all,

We are wanting to try out federated searching whereby one of our local colleges can return search results from our catalogue when they search on their catalogue.
Is making Z39.50 Target Public the way to go about this? See instructions below from manual, using V 3.01.00.999.

Thanks in advance for your help

J.9.2. Making Z39.50 Target Public

Question: Could someone tell me the exact steps I need to take to configure Zebra to expose my Koha 3 db as a public Z39.50 service?

Answer: Edit the KOHA_CONF file that your Koha is using. Uncomment the publicserver line like:

<!-- <listen id="publicserver" >tcp:@:9999</listen> -->

to be:

<listen id="publicserver" >tcp:@:9999</listen>

Then restart zebasrv and connect on the port specified (9999).
