[Koha] Can Koha run digital library collections

We started an evaluation of Greenstone for our digital collection, then also started evaluating DSpace after we experienced some dissatisfaction with Greenstone. Frankly, I think DSpace is much better in terms of it's feature set and ease of use than Greenstone, and that's what we will be using. I think that a app like DSpace designed specifically for digital data does a better job of displaying the content in it's web interface, which the public sees and uses, than a standard ILS does in an OPAC.

Dear All, 

I'm curious as to if koha can operate a digital library collection the way Greenstone does, or similar. If so where on the interface can I begin? 

Thank you

I think there is a bug in your version of Koha. I will test in 3.0.5 
(the latest stable release) and see if it still exists there.

thanks, Chris. wouldn't surprise me. unfortunately, LibLime has been 
running several stable versions behind everyone else. There are numerous 
bugs that have fixes which can't be employed due to the "closed" nature of 
their hosted system. LibLime doesn't even offer a per-incident support 
option, just a $10,500 annual support subscription. i have high hopes that 
the new management will step up their product support (& upgrade schedule!). 
if they don't, i don't see a future for LibLime; i couldn't recommend them 
based upon our experiance thus far.

Well, the day is over in my timezone and I got 1 article. I'll be on 
the road all day tomorrow but if you have news (and no news is too 
small) or a tip you want to share send it along. No matter what the 
newsletter will be late this month :(

Venkat, 


If you run bulkmarcimport.pl -h, you'll see the built-in help and usage 
guide.

I'm doing a presentation for community college library directors tomorrow 
about open source library system software and I recall that the last time I 
spoke to this group, they were concerned about whether Koha or Evergreen 
intregrated with the following systems: 

1. Banner 
2. DataTel 
3. PeopleSoft 

Does anyone have any experience with any of these? 

If you are in a community college setting running either Koha or Evergreen 
today, I'd love to know about you!

Hello everybody, 

I've recently activated zebra and in the authorities search and I always 
see 0 biblios no matter how many biblios there are for a given 
authority. As I understand the process, a query is done for the 
authority and then one for each authority found. The first query is ok 
but all the biblio queries generate an error in zebrasrv: 

22:06:36-14/04 zebrasrv(18) [request] Auth idPass kohaadmin - 
22:06:36-14/04 zebrasrv(18) [request] Init OK - ID:81/81 Name:ZOOM-C/YAZ 
Version:1.154/3.0.34

@attrset Bib-1 @attr "1=Koha-Auth-Number" 2 
22:06:36-14/04 zebrasrv(18) [session] Connection closed by client 

I've tried reindexing everything, even physically removing the zebradb 
files, reinstalling another zebra version with no effet. I am lost, 
anyone has any ideea? 

Many thanks,

Bonjour, 

Je suis actuellement stagiaire ? la biblioth?que des B?ali?res de Meylan. 
Cette structure pense se tourner vers un logiciel libre. De ce fait, les 
biblioth?caires aimeraient conna?tre l'avis d'autres professionnels sur le 
logiciel Koha, et savoir comment la mise en place du logiciel s'est pass?e 
dans leur structure (en terme de co?t de maintenance, d'organisation du 
travail, etc). Je suis charg?e de ce projet, et j'aimerais donc pouvoir 
contacter des professionnels ayant choisi Koha et souhaitant g?n?reusement 
r?pondre ? mes questions. Merci par avance. 
Cordialement, 

Sol?ne Baudouin
