[Koha] The University of hte South Pacific Library - seeking information on koha

[King, Fred]

A few comments on Zeno's comments:

> >2.      Can Koha be installed in a Windows environment?
> No. You need to use Linux
The system itself needs to be installed on a Linux server, but the catalog and staff interfaces are browser-based, so you can use Windows or any other OS. Unlike the system we migrated from, there isn't separate staff software that has to be installed on staff computers.

>6.      Does Koha have Predictive text searching?
>7.      Does Koha include an eRM module?
>8.      Does Koha have a Mobile Interface and Circulation for Android or iOS or HTML5 Browsers)
>9.      Does Koha have a Digital Asset Management System?
...and a few other questions.
As someone (sorry--I can't remember who) said, anything is possible in Koha if you're willing to pay for it. Koha is user-driven, and anything contributed becomes part of the general release. If you want a feature, you can build it or hire someone to build it. All right, probably not ANYTHING, but pretty close.
