Lori,

I won't say we've done a great job, but we have loaded our ebooks into our 
catalog.  We're currently testing Ebsco's Discovery, but you can see just our 
catalog at catalog.uttyler.edu.

Subject: [Koha] integration of electronic content

Could anyone point me to a library catalog that does a great job integration 
e-content into their catalog?  I am assuming this will mostly be e-books unless 
someone knows a library that has done a great job integrating databases as well 
(and could direct me to those libraries-this wouldn't be evident without an 
account but I'd still like to know if someone has done a good job of it so I 
can talk to them).

 We have the same issue with backdating. If you want to go back farther
 than the last day open, then the bookdrop function doesn't do you much
 good. We have a bookdrop that we only check once a week, for example. And
 our circ manager tells me she would like the freedom to do other things
 with backdating.

 It would be nice to have a feature where you could actually select the
 date for checkin.

 ByWater Solutions is currently working on a telephony solution.

Re: [Koha] backdating, merge patrons and telecirc

2012-01-24 Thread James Ghiorzi
Hi Lori,

Koha has the book drop feature that Mr. Marron described.  As far as a 
duplicate patron goes  I think Koha tries to compare to what your inputting via 
the required fields, because on more than one occasion it has asked me if the 
patron is a duplicate or another record, than it should be a simple matter of 
just updating.  What we do to avoid duplicates is search by patron last name, 
and first name, than if we find a matching record we also look at the 
birthdate(s).  So I guess the short answer is there is no handy way of 
automatically doing this.

Respectfully,

Subject: [Koha] backdating, merge patrons and telecirc

Hi All,

Is it true that there is no backdating feature in Koha?  By this I mean, the 
ability to check-in items (e.g. book drop stuff) with check-in dates of the 
previous day (or even several days ago to handle long weekends).

Is it true there is no handy way to identify duplicate patrons and to merge 
select patron records into one record?

What about telecirc...is anyone currently using a telephone-based notification 
system (such as Asterisk) with Koha?

Lori

 Thanks for the suggestion but it's not really user friendly.

 We will update all our Hard due date to empty for now,using sql, and we
 will try to find a solution before the end of the session.

 BTW : Some librairies truly like the new way to work... some other dont.
 The problem is that when you have tons of rules, this new feature is
 impossible use :-(


We have recently had to deal with this issue as well. An additional feature
which would help here would be a script or tool to allow bulk changing of
these dates under the new system. Opening an enhancement request in
bugs.koha-community.org will help keep track of this.

Kind Regards,

[Koha] Emailing: proccenterdocx.docx

2012-01-24 Thread Hillyard, Cecil
 proccenterdocx.docx Hi all,

How long does the temporary shelving location of PROC stay on the
item?

When items are being checked in at the owning branch the PROC shelving
location is not being changed to its proper location of New Materials or
whatever is applicable.  Items like this are coming up in holds report
and confusing staff. Is it in processing/being cataloged or is it on the
shelf?  

The item in the attached was checked in yesterday but still says
Processing Center.
