[Koha] where to put a link to ILL?

Hello, I just added a link to my library's Interlibrary Loan form in the OPAC, on the 'No results found' screen . However, I'd imagine that often someone will do a search and there will be *some* results, but not the item they are looking for. We are trying to think of somewhere else on the search

Re: [Koha] Inventory Workaround

We are in the middle of an inventory right now. Our student workers are going through the shelves with a laptop and a barcode scanner and just scanning the barcodes as they go. If you pretend you're checking in the book, you'll get a message saying it was not checked out, but the date last seen wi

Re: [Koha] report for weeding

The idea of creating a fake patron was so he could scan the books rather than typing the titles. I see we can make a list by scanning barcodes as well, so we'll do that. Thanks. I don't see a report in the library that is limited to items on a particular list. Is there a simple way to do that.

Re: [Koha] A question for users of Koha, about searching

[Koha] notifying patrons about holds

Hello, I just got a note from a student worker who oversees circulation with a question about holds. She said, "Question: in Koha we are able to place books on hold so the patron should get an email when the book is checked in and placed on the hold shelf, but this system doesn't actually work."

We have a Boopsie app also. I don't know how to send you the link to it, but it is in the iTunes app store, under Arcadia University. On Tue, May 29, 2012 at 3:43 AM, Nicole Engard wrote: > Farmington Libraries in CT is using it: > http://www.appbrain.com/app/farmington-libraries-ct/com.bredir.

[Koha] seeing orders for a specific fund

Hello, Back when we were on 3.0, I could look at the funds list on the Acquisitions page and click on the amount ordered for a fund to see what was ordered. The number (dollar amount) was a link, and the link took me to a list of everything on order. Same with the dollar amount spent; it took me

Re: [Koha] Koha: Acqusition Module

I was told this was a known bug in the version that we are using (3.01.00.061). I imagine it’s been fixed by now, since we are a little behind on our upgrades. Maybe someone else can tell you which release has the fix. Karen Kohn Collection Development Manager Education and Sociology Lib
