Hello All,

I already feel like part of the family:)

I like the answers that I have received so far!

I am already very encouraged.

I think that VMs will be the easiest way to deploy a new libraries.

I thought of another question.

Being that we will be promoting the inter-library loan concept, which is currently not available, but does it work for searching other libraries to find books?

Is there a way for the librarian to have access to multiple libraries at once when doing research to get the other books, or is this done one at a time at other other libraries in the system?

Thanks for yoru feedback

Joseph

Hi Joe,

Here are my answers

1. Yes, you may, we use 1126 branches for one instutition, 6 for another, etc. Koha supports branches.

2. Yes you can, we use 3 database servers, 8-10 web servers for big installation.

3. Yes, you can. You need the look at some coonfiguration files. But I suggest you use a specific server for your Koha insallation
and use the default values for future support.

Best regards

Hello,

My name is Joe.

I am writing because we are in discussions with a possible college campus looking to update the searching ability on the campus.

We found Koha and the features seem full and rich.

We have more technical questions about installing a new library and sharing server with multiple libraries.

I will ask a couple of questions, and then follow up, depending on the replies I get.

1 - The campus has more then one library on campus: 1 for physical sciences 1 for medecine 1 for social sciences How can this be treated? Can one installation cover for a campus allow for the location data to include which building/library, or even on which campus it might be located?

2 - Can we run multiple instances of Koha on the same server? I ask because any other the documentation that I have read always mentioned 1 server, 1 koha. If this works well for us, there are a couple of other libraries interested in working with us. We want to under stand the resources needed. 1 koha per server, or many per server?

3 - Can Koha be installed to run from a particular folder? We already have our server up and running, and if they can just be installed in a directory of a web page installation?

This is just my beginning. We are trying to understand the software in order to know what is possible or now.

Thanks!

Joe
