Re: [Koha] integration of electronic content
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.

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. --Jim ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
Re: [Koha] backdating, merge patrons and telecirc
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.

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?

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.

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.

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. __ Cecil Hillyard Washoe County Library -Tel: 775-327-8338 or 7750-327-8330 fax: 775-327-8334 ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
