[Koha] Importing data into Koha 3.14

[Layale Bassil]

Hello,

I am trying to import data into Koha 3.14 from a .mrc file. I know that in 
order to insert an item it has to be under tag 952. But my file has a special 
structure where the items are separated from the bib record and linked to it 
through tag 004. Below is a sample record with its item. I appreciate any idea 
that you can give which helps me importing these records into Koha.

As you can see, tag =004  115761 in the second record is the same as tag =001  
115761 in the first record which is used to link those two records.

How can I import such a file into Koha correctly?

Many thanks,
Regards.

[Koha] Amazon Associates

[Tracy Mehlin]

Hello.

I'm curious to hear if Koha users have found the Amazon Associates function to 
be worthwhile? We already display covers from Amazon so it seems a small leap 
to add an id# to earn a little money. Any reason we should be cautious?

Re: [Koha] Looking for more Serials Documentation help

[Hernandez, Heather]

Hi!

I have to admit that we find the serials module to be rather baffling.
Although we are using it to check in new issues so that our patrons can get
an email notification when new issues arrive, I couldn't really tell you
why it's doing what it's doing, and I have to say that I'm far from
understanding it.  And I'm no serials system newbie--I've been using such
systems since the days of Innovacq way before ILS's were twinkles in the
eyes of developers--but getting our subscriptions to behave in a 'good
enough' manner on Koha seems to have been rather hit and miss, and I
haven't taken the time to fine tune them.

I also haven't taken the time to figure out claiming, since I wasn't sure
it would be a better solution than just walking around our Reading Room
every now and then to eyeball what hasn't come in and just shooting an
email off to the publisher to get our missing issue(s).  Granted, we don't
have a lot of current subscriptions!  We also gave up on using Koha for
acquisitions except for storing subscription vendors, since it doesn't meet
our needs--federal purchasing is a bit byzantine, and we have no money to
contribute towards developments.

I'll keep my eyes open when receiving issues for subscriptions that could
benefit from some work, and will try to compare things with the manual--if
I can contribute anything, I'd be happy to do it--but I may just be
contributing more questions!

Cheerio,
heather

[Koha] Looking for more Serials Documentation help

[Nicole Engard]

Hello all,

With the new serials module in Koha 3.14 we have a lot of questions coming
in and my documentation is not thorough enough because I admit I haven't
had time to really dig deep in to it.

I'm wondering if I could enlist some of you to submit patches to the manual
for this section and/or send me documentation in other formats that you'd
like me to include in the manual.

The big issues are:

* The lack of the 'rollover' is very confusing to people - rollover made
sense and people have been using it for ages so now the 'inner counter' is
causing all kinds of questions and while I know how to fill it in to make
things work (sometimes) I don't really understand it either.

* This email I got: "My staff reports, and I confirmed sitting next to
them, going through the steps, that the manual for the serials module is
not as helpful as hoped for.  In particular, it would be very helpful to
have several step by step examples on how to setup a serial (a couple or
three, with different publishing patterns) that could be applied to our
subscriptions.  For example, the manual has a section for setting up new
numbering patterns, but the screen shots are blank.  A concrete example
with explanations on every field to fill out -- say for a pattern that is
year/volume/issue would go a very long way and should address most
questions.  Of course, we were and are further confused by the fact that
data we enter and save in the patterns isn't actually saved, but that seems
to be a broader problem affecting us right now and not specific to the
serials module."

* The fact that you can't edit the manual history unless you have the
'manual history' box checked when creating the subscription - when before
we could edit it at any time  also confusing.

So, if you understand and/or use the current serials module in 3.14 or 3.16
I'd love to hear from you with edits to the manual to help Koha users
around the world.

The sections are: http://manual.koha-community.org/3.14/en/serials.html and
http://manual.koha-community.org/3.14/en/sampleserialsapp.html

Thanks in advance,
Nicole

[Koha] [koha] Collecting Dewey codes ?

[Frederic Edmont]

Hello,

I want to collect dewey codes to complete my database.
I was thinking about using z39.50 servers to get them but I have 2questions:
- I want to use 2 different servers; one in marc21 and one in unimarc. As
z39.50 only works for servers using the same format as me, Is there a way
to collect the dewey code of the other server with an alternative? What
about SRU ?
- My second question is: When importing that dewey code, I dont want other
data (like title author etc) to overwrite mines. How can I do that?

Thx for responses,

[Koha] Koha Upgrade

[Chrispin Simasiku Sitali]

I would like to upgrade Koha from version 3.14.05.000 to the current stable
version

What issues do I have to look out for; when it asks me which configuration
to keep (mysql)
When I fail to access my Koha instance what command do I have to execute
for my instance to be up and running.

I say so because when I tried to upgrade my Koha installation the system
asked me about which configuration to keep or over right because it was a
requirement in the new version of mysql, afterwards I could not log into
Koha. Please help.
