So you're saying that the union catalogue will only have updates about once every 10 minutes? Or that the cataloguer will only be accessing a record in the union catalogue and Koha once every 10 minutes? I am including a mechanism for fetching "one" record, so long as the user knows the OAI-PMH identifier they're after. They'll be able to add a task for that. Perhaps a future development could be done to provide an interface in the cataloguing module for adding/updating a single record. In place of that interface, they'll be able to add a task in the same area as the other tasks in order to get the one record... > Then nightly more massive harvests could be performed to catch up with other > modifications to the union catalog. > Those nightly harvests would certainly be possible with the current design. > From my point of view it seems a little contrived to use a OAI harvester for > this kind of job - synching Koha with union catalog just to be able to > instantly work locally on a record. > But it is what has been recommended to us by the union catalog from which we > are importing records. What do you mean by "work locally on a record"? The union catalog will be the source of truth, so any modifications to a record in Koha would be overwritten by a change in the union catalogue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
