Re: [Koha] US librarians seeking help with Koha APIs

[Lee Miller]

Hi James,
We are a Koha library in Montana and use Overdrive for our E-content. We 
batch load the E-records into Koha as provided to us from Overdrive. 
When a patron selects the Overdrive materials there is a link that takes 
the user to the Overdrive site to manage the down load. The authenticate 
with their library card and download the content. One unfortunate aspect 
of this action is that the analytics for this use is with Overdrive and 
not Koha for statistical tracking purposes.

Hope this helps, feel free to contact me if I can be of further assistance.

Hello Joann,

I'm Jamie LaRue from Colorado, USA (formerly of Douglas County Libraries),
and Ross Balharrie recommended that I talk with you.

Colorado is working on a statewide ebook content management platform.
That's well underway, but we've hit a snag in our attempts to integrate the
product with a Koha-based consortium. The administrator of that system
don't have a lot of experience with APIs. It's probably too late for us to
find a magic solution to accomplish this by the time our grant is up, but I
wonder if you might have some suggestions for programmers who do have that
expertise? This is the perfect prototype for an international cooperation,
and Koha is very definitely picking up speed here.

I'd appreciate any leads you might provide. Thanks!


The first thing we would need to know is what version of Koha are they

running, because otherwise whatever answer we give will be wrong :)
