> I'm very happy to see that a project like this exists. Here at the
> University of Arizona Library, we have a librarian who is going to Kabul,
> Afghanistan, to try to help them reopen (I think) their University
> Library. She needs a small economical system to 'bootstrap' their
> operation on no funds, and Koha looks like a wonderful contribution.

> My role in this has only been to do a test install for her, and provide 
> some opensource software she can take with her on cd. We believe they have 
> some sort of PC that can run Linux, and an internet connection, and 
> someone who can install it.

> But of course she has questions I've been unable to answer. The 2 most 
> pressing for her are, does Koha support using LC call numbers for the 
> collection, and does it support cross-references, ie some sort of 
> authority control?  I haven't been able to find evidence of them.

> Has this been discussed before?

> The third thing she would like to add, which would be in the distant 
> future, is farsi (Persian) language support.  We have some programming 
> staff here but her Afghanistan trip is not an official University project 
> at this point. Sometimes things like this can grow, of course ...
