    This is not a new development; LibLime was doing this for years, it started 
under Josh. It might have been far enough back that it was before the fork, too.


    That said, I'm surprised that Simmons would decide to go with this over 
actual Koha. The folks at that GSLIS could foster a natural partnership with 
MassCat, so that part raises an eyebrow.

I think the key here is that Liblime is putting in the time to work with
the LIS programs.  I suspect if MassCat (or anyone else) had extended an
offer, they would have accepted.

Exactly! That has been my experience, at least. I've worked with two
library schools to provide Koha installations for student use. One school
actually has an in-house Koha expert, so my role with them was limited to
advocacy. For the other school, C & P Bibliography Services is providing a
hosted Koha installation for their students' use.

My hope is that by getting Koha into use in library schools, we'll see more
understanding of the system, more testing (and user feedback), and,
eventually a repository of lesson plans based on Koha.

Jared Camins-Esakov

    This got misinterpreted somehow. I find it odd that you wouldn't find a way 
to capitalise as a school off of the efforts of your students. The tie ins that 
one would get out of Koha in terms of effort and internship seem to be better 
than what you'd get on an island. You can make a little snowball of hitting up 
a demo and teaching from that, which you could do with the ByWater demos 
anyway, or you could go beyond that instructional rubric and build in community 
value. Nothing west of Worcester, I suppose.

Cheers,
Brooke

There is a report for a complete shelf list on the wiki -
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/SQL_Reports_Library#Complete_Shelf_list

You should be able to use that as a starting place to get what you're
looking for.
