The librarians would like to be able to scan a user's library card and have it turn on their internet access for a set amount of time. They want to limit a patron to 2 hours of internet time per day. So the program would need to verify the user hasn't used up their time. Turn on internet access to one of the patron computers. Then turn off access when the time is up.

Than simply find the framework you would like to change/use and left click the MARC Structure hyper-text link. A table of fields should appear; look for and left click the New Tag button should be near the top of the table. Than simply fill out the fields as desired and left click the save changes button.

Re: [Koha] items that are lost, fees assessed, and then found
Hi Lori, I did a test case and came up with more of a mystery than an answer. The thing I did was I checked a book out. Than marked it as lost through the edit item interface, and it applied the cost of the book to the patron account. I checked the book back in but no credit was issued. So I than checked the item back out, and put a lost fine in the account/fines detail section of the patron account. I than waived the amount, checked the item in, and the system issued a credit for the item, but since I had waived the fine the patron was owed a credit at that point. So I guess there is really no slick way to do this other than to mark the book as lost in the edit item interface. If the patron turns it back in it will issue a message telling you that it was lost. Than at that point I'd imagine the patron would want some sort of refund, so you should be able to get their card, or surname, or at the very least do a little research under the item barcode hyper-text link and get their account straightened out.

Re: [Koha] Adding more patrons to my database
Hello David, You probably have an answer already, but once you access tools, and than import patrons function, it should give you the option on what to do with duplicate records: (If matching record is already in the borrowers table: Ignore this one, keep the existing one, or Overwrite the existing one with this It also should give you options for Patron Attributes : Replace all Patron Attributes, Replace only included Patron Attributes) The only thing I am unsure of is how prevalent these options are in the older versions of 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.

Re: [Koha] How do you handle Claimed Returns?
Maybe a work around would be instead of listing the item as lost on the patron account, input it as a manual invoice (Fine) and use the note/description fields you will have to put a value if you want to produce some kind of notation on the attention section of the checkout screen. Then in the actual item status mark it as lost, so won't display on the catalog, folks can't put a hold on it, etc. Than if it magically appears again than just checking it will remove the lost status, it will not credit anybody.

Re: [Koha] Greetings from a newbie!
Dear Jessica, Welcome to the list and congratulations with the decision to go with Koha and Bywater Solutions. There are a lot of words of wisdom that the list can offer, so your in the right place :). I can think of a couple minor stuff to think about. Mapping your holdings codes to Koha item types probably will be the first one. Secondly I would look at what receipt printers your currently using and if possible try them out with the demo server (to see if they work with Firefox or not), that probably goes for barcode scanners as well, but we haven't had any problems even with the oldest of our scanners. Start thinking about how you want your OPAC to look too, Owen Leonard really is the expert on this, http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=30 , http://www.myacpl.org/koha/?p=380, and there is a video here http://www.archive.org/details/KohaAndOpacCustomizationWithOwenLeonard. I can also send you some links to other Koha OPAC's if interested. Lastly I would think about the reports you do now and get with Bywater Implementation Specialist so you can start planning on converting them to SQL. That's about all the basics I can think of :) Respectfully, James Ghiorzi Library Assistant II San Benito County Free Library 470 Fifth St. Hollister, CA 95023 (831) 636-4107 From: koha-boun...@lists.katipo.co.nz [koha-boun...@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of Tobin, Jessica L [jto...@fhcrc.org] Sent: Tuesday, October 25, 2011 11:35 AM To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: [Koha] Greetings from a newbie!

Re: [Koha] Multiple item types which are really the same in advanced search options
Dear Cecil, I don't think there is a way of doing what your asking for. I know you can search for different item types with the advanced search. As long as you have the item type within the administration - Item Types and have items keyed to that item type, you should be able to search them by checking in the desired boxes. The only thing I can think of would be changing the items types to be the same, and if a separator of some sort is desired have a shelving location.

Re: [Koha] scanning call numbers
Dear Linda, Not sure if your referring to the browse shelf feature, which I think is only part of the public PAC and not a function of the staff interface. But you can enter a call number in either search. For example 362.4 would get you books with in that range. By using the public catalog, you can select an item, than browse shelf, which in turn would allow you to browse items in a similar call number range.

Re: [Koha] overdue charges
Hi Rachel, Make sure that finesMode under Fines Policy and Circulation within System Preferences are set to Calculate and charge. I think too that a cronjob will have to be created in order for the system to run the fine script(s).

Re: [Koha] spine lable
Dear Doctor Gaur, From the staff client screen go to tools, than label creator. After than select manage templates, and create a template that matches the labels dimensions. Once your done with the template you will have to create layout which tells Koha which fields to use on the label. Once you have completed these steps select manage batches, than from click on the batches drop down button and select new batch. Than simply add barcodes from the items to be labeled. Once you have scanned/typed all desired barcodes click the Add Item(s) button. the Export Batch button should now be available click on that, than you will select your template and layout and starting label number, and click the Export button. After which you can choose several different formats to print to, we use .pdf files. Than it should be a simple matter of selecting the print function.

Re: [Koha] Unable to see patron address change
Hi Sheldon, I don't think there's a problem with the version. It should be a setting within System Preferences, and Administration KohaAdminEmailAddress. What will happen is that when the patron makes a change in their account on OPAC it will mail the address that you put here.
