Re: [Koha] Question on Cataloguing Graduate Thesis
Chris, I don't know how in depth you want me to go here. Your best bet is to use Analytics (which are meant for this very thing). So you catalog the bound edition as '2013 graduate theses' or some such title). Then you catalog each individual theses and link them to the whole.

Most important thing is your Perl version, you need = 5.10. Is that's not the case, you need to compile Perl and all the needed modules. Doable, but too much work. If you have the right Perl, check how many needed modules can install from packages (you need all listed by koha_perl_deps:pl -m -u) The more you have, less work.

This of course flags circ when an item is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced by the patron. The problem we are having is the actual replacement price is being replaced by the default price when we do batch modification on one or multiple items. We tried taking out the default price in our settings, but then it just replaces the replacement price with nothing. Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, did you find a fix for it?

Re: [Koha] How often do upgrades happen to Koha?
Greetings, One final question... on average, how frequently is Koha updated (so I can determine support requirements if we have to move to Red Hat as opposed to Debian)? Roughly, every month is a BUG fix, no enhancements are added, as far as I understand. Every 6 months is a new version, enhancements that were held back and are tested and Q/A make it in plus bug fixes. I do not believe you have to update every month (unless you find something fixed that you are encountering), and you may even be able to get along nicely skipping a new version (unless that new fangled enhancement is just a necessity you can't live without). Annual updates keep you from falling too far behind and keep your system administration needs to a minimum. Though under debian-based OS'es, two or three commands monthly isn't so bad. ;) GPML, Mark Tompsett ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Re: [Koha] Koha - Red Hat question
The problem David and I are facing is that we have been directed to move our Koha server into a data center that is managed by our corporate IT personnel. They only support RHEL 6 and Windows Server 2008, and will not allow us to install any other OS. Given that limitation, would you recommend we push forward and try to install on RHEL, or should we abandon the attempt and find another application?

Since RHEL6 includes Perl 5.10, that at least removes one major barrier, and installing Koha on that platform is certainly doable -- and it's even more so if you're allowed to pull dependencies from EPEL and RPMForge.

[Koha] serials help
I am writing to you from a small public library in Southern Vermont, USA. We are about to launch a new 5 library consortium within the state using a shared Koha ILS. Over the coming years, many more public and academic libraries in the state will join our consortium. We are the only library that has used a serials module in the past (TLC) and will be setting up a lot of the records and predictions that will be used by the consortium. We are looking for a library that has been using Koha Serials for a resource to ask questions to as we set up this system... Thank you!

Re: [Koha] Koha - Red Hat question
Greetings, You may have to CPAN some libraries in -- even with RPMForge and EPEL. :( I was playing with CentOS 6.3 and found this issue. Though, I was beginning to play with cpan2rpm, which would hopefully allow for future upgrading as the libraries become available in the default repos. And though it is strongly recommended against to install from CPAN (because upgrading becomes a CPAN only option), Koha can function just fine under RHEL 6.

Re: [Koha] Koha Digest, Vol 90, Issue 2
Printing Labels has been a significant headache for me. I get errors or blank .PDF if there are any diacritics in the file. I would be happy to take a look at the file if you send it to me or to the list. No promises that I can figure it out! Also, it would be helpful to know what layout you are using.

Re: [Koha] Question on Cataloguing Graduate Thesis
Where/how do you catalog multiple graduate theses in a single binding in dewey/loc/foobar? IANAC (I Am Not A Cataloguer) for for LCC, I know of a library that catalogues all its (individual) theses under AS741 (Academies and learned societies - By region or country - Oceania - New Zealand) rather than the individual subjects. For example: AS741 VUW TC 27 (the 27th masters in chemistry) AS741 VUW PhD TEd 22 (the 22nd doctorate in education) It looks like AS22 is the equivalent for USA. Something similar could be done for bound volumes, and presumably for Dewey too (378.2? 011.75? 378.071?)
