Dear All KOHA experts, 
  
We are a Digital Library in Kabul Afghanistan (www.acku.edu.af), currently we 
are using  Greenstone Database for our online library management system 
(http://www.nzdl.org/gsdlmod/cgi-bin/library?a=p&p=about&c=acku&l=en&nl=1%3E)  
but it cannot support  many features and enhancements required! Therefore, it 
has been a high concern for our management to sort this issue out by any 
possible, professional and very standard solution,  please find the attached 
for our new database specifications and wish list. 
Below are few points for which we need your kind recommendations and 
suggestions! 
 
1)      Depending on our wish list, maybe it is recommended to use an 
Integrated system (Greenstone and KOHA)  so that to get best features out of 
both systems. 
2)      Upgrade of Greenstone’s current version 
(http://www.nzdl.org/gsdlmod/cgi-bin/library?a=p&p=about&c=acku&l=en&nl=1%3E)  
into new version so that to support our attached requirements. 
3)      Migration into KOHA. 
  
Our main concern: 
 
As we have already discussed with some database professionals, one of the main 
issue is to run KOHA or may be integrated system on Dari and Pastho two Afghan 
languages, some of them were not ready to do the translation! 
Kindly enlighten us by your kind suggestions and recommendations on any system 
you prefer so that to help us running the project independently or if you can 
help us on Translation of database into to Dari and Pashto languages!
