Dear Nancy; Please visit the following site : http://ksrcas.pbworks.com/w/page/3809371/editingmarcframework
Question : (for example the 00 fields?) will I run into a problem when I import records? Answer: better not to delete/hide the default / mandatory fields, these mandatory fields are clickable only. Won't take that much time. Question: Put another way, if I import records all from the Library of Congress for example, using the import script, will the script fail if the field is not defined in my framework? Answer: No issue, if you select the customized framework for Z39.50 search and catalogue, you will be able to store the content/biblio. You can go ahead and customize the framework and it will work very effectively for you. Feel free to revert back for any clarifications.

If you can register your thermal printer as a standard windows printer, capable to print a web page from a browser, then this link can help you: http://www.nexpresslibrary.org/go-live/configure-your-receipt-printers/ Next, what is printed in the circulation slip is basically in the file $KOHA_DIR/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/members/ moremember-print.tt that file could be tailored to your needs (logo, etc), handled with care by someone who understand html. It's a sort of html file, but not quite. It's used by Koha to generate the html of the receipt. Hope that helps -- Bernardo Gonzalez Kriegel [email protected] On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 7:34 PM, Randy Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > Our library consortium is preparing to go live with Koha next week.

Many small Pacific countries struggle with extra issues when automating their libraries, such as unexpected power outages (and damaging power surges), intermittent and slow Internet access, old technology and limited IT expertise. For many Pacific libraries, Koha is their first automated system, and staff training is a real issue. Quite a few Pacific Koha projects have stalled as a result of these problems. We need to develop a supportive local community that shares knowledge and offers support. I hope to set up a smaller discussion forum for the Pacific Koha community (while still being involved in the wider Koha community discussions). The forum will talk about day to day use of Koha, answer basic questions about using the system and share resources such as training materials. I would also like to discuss regional training possibilities. Please email me at: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> if you would like to be involved. I hope to hear from you soon.

But I would like to import my marc records using the import perl script. I was wondering, if I edit the BOOK MARC framework for example, and delete fields that we don't really care about (for example the 00 fields?) will I run into a problem when I import records?

I'd just like to make sure we're doing it right: We've created something like CALLNUM as an authorized values category, and then we're putting our general call number heading (e.g. BC1100) as the Authorized Value, and then "Reference--Dictionaries" as the Description and the Description (OPAC). And then we've mapped CALLNUM as a mandatory field on our Marc framework. Does it sound like we're doing this the right way?

Probably not, but I think the usual way is to set up new frameworks and leave the full ones there. The import script can (must? check it!) use the default framework, which is another way out. > Put another way, if I import records all from the Library of Congress for > example, using the import script, will the script fail if the field is not > defined in my framework? I think the answer is: no, but it may behave slightly strangely when you edit the record or need you to use the default framework to edit all the fields. Nothing should break as a result of this, though.

That will bring you to the Administration page. #2 Under Catalog heading click on "MARC Bibliographic framework". This takes you to a list of the MARC Frameworks in your instance of Koha. #3 Click on the "MARC Structure" link beside the MARC Framework you want the 09X field added to. #4 Enter 09X in the "Search for tag" search box and click search. #5 Click the subfields link on the 09X tag line, then click edit subfields and at the bottom of that page you will see a link that says "display more constraints". Click on the "display more constraints" link. #6 You will need to set the "hidden" field to the correct value. -1 will make it visible in the OPAC, on the Intranet, in the editor, and will make it show up as collapsed in the editor.

We have a number of patrons who were created (or somehow set) the privacy setting on their accounts. This was not readily visible and not taken into account when we were trying to perform the anonymizing. Where on the OPAC can a patron set their privacy flag? I've not seen where that option can be set.
