There are 1005 installations and 1711 libraries. Since Hea v2 (bug 18066) you can submit information at library level (see /cgi-bin/koha/admin/usage_statistics.pl, "Libraries information: yes").
The list of the data shared is available from the hea website, about > documentation. There is also a "Why these statistics are useful" section Regards, Jonathan On Mon, 9 Jul 2018 at 06:43 Michael Kuhn <m...@adminkuhn.ch> wrote: > Hi Martin > > > * 1693 unnamed libraries..
