We are transitioning to Koha this month. I am having some concerns about showing this new display to children and teaching them to quickly locate the entries for children on their topic, the library location, its status and call number. I am thinking that the call numbers and availability are not as visible as our last OPAC. They are almost hidden in parentheses after lots of other publisher information. The opportunity to limit to youth materials and our building are down below the first screen. I am told that much of this can't be changed. I am hoping that some of you who work with children or customers with limited English or limited library experience will share with me your techniques for teaching the use of this catalog. Thank you.
