[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] MARC templates

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hello


In collaboration with the National Library of the Czech republic We  are
currently   working on MAC XML cataloging templates for Evergreen that
should meet the standards of  the Union catalog of the Czech Republic.


We were advised to use wildcard character (such as an asterisk)  for coded
data and indicators in the MARC templates that cataloger must not forget to
fill in. E.g. at the position 35-37 in field 008 or at the position of the
first indicator in the 100 field (etc.) should  occur a star in the
template  that would warn catalogers it is necessary to enter  some data.

 It doesn't not seem as a bad idea to me,  but I wonder if it could cause a
problem  in  Evergreen in the case  that the catalogers forget to fill in
the  right data and asterisk would remain in the MARC record hen it is
saved.


What do you think about it.

Thanks for your ideas

Eva

Thanks Jason,
this is a very useful point of view for me at the moment.

  the  right data and asterisk would remain in the MARC record hen it is

 Just a point to consider.  There have been many times when I have
 migrated data from other systems into Evergreen and encounter values
 like *** REQUIRED FIELD ***.  Without teeth to enforce the
 restrictions, people will either forget, or choose to skip the needed
 data entry, maybe with the idea of coming back later (and then
 forgetting).

 That said, we could develop a framework for enforcing restrictions in
 the MARC, given will and resources.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] OPAC- serial holding summary display

[Cerninakova Eva]

Thanks a lot  for the pattern. I have tested it and  it works (i. e. the
holding summary displays all issues)
Unfortunately It does not solved my problem completely. As the issues of
serial in question are not marked with volume or month (just year and
number) and the publication dates of issues are quite irregular,   it does
not fit on the case. If I would use the pattern the OPAC holding summary
would be  confusing for users.

 Dear Eva,

 ** **

 I think you need to add the chronology captions Year and Month. The whole
 pattern would look like this:

 ** **


 [0,0,8,1,a,Vol.,b,No.,u,2,v,c,i,(year),j,(month),w,f,x,01]
 

 ** **

 Then try to create a new issuance for the number 41.

 ** **

 I hope this will help.

 ** **

 Best regards, Erhan Tuskan

 *Subject:* [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] OPAC- serial holding summary display

 ** **

 We came across  a problem of  serials holding display for a particular
 serial in library  OPAC .
 I  think the problem could have something to do with the fact that  in
 this case the numbering  increments continuously (we newer had a problem
 displaying serials holdings in OPAC when issuance numbering restarts at
 unit completion).
  We received serial issues no. 42 and 43, but in the serial holding
 summary no information about no. 43 is  displayed in OPAC (however call
 numbers are displayed), see
 http://www.jabok.cuni.cz/opac/en-US/skin/default/xml/rdetail.xml?r=10801d=0hc=1adv=10801rt=tcn

 When creating pattern code and  issuance I entered following data:

 1) Pattern code wizard:
 Page 1 - Use enumeration: filed checked
 Enumerating caption :
 First level: Vol.
 Second level: No., Number: 2, Increments continuously

 Page 2 - Use calendar changes: filed checked.
 Used calendar change „At start of a month“ „January“

 Page 3 - Use chronology caption: field unchecked

 Page 4
 Compressibility and Expandability: Cannot compress or expand
 Caption Evaluation: Caption unverified, all levels may not be present
Frequency: Semiannual

 2) I created New Issuance with following: Date published:12/15/2011
  then I entered data to Issuance wizard (Vol :2011, no 41) and
 compiled the holding code.

 3) I generated prediction for vol. 2012 and 2013 (numbers 42 - 43/2012 and
 44 - 45/2013).

 I am quite new in holding data formats so I think I might have done
 something wrong when generating pattern code or making  prediction (however
 I cannot exclude possibility of existing bug). 

 Have you any idea? 

 Thanks a lot.

Thanks for help. I have tested the problem a bit more and I came to the
same conclusion as Dan. I will report the bug.

 Hello Eva,

 This seems likely to be a bug.  If you haven't already, could you report
 this
 at https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen ?  That will at least reduce the
 likelihood of this issue getting lost.

 Thanks,

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] ***SPAM*** Anyone encountered this: Error loading preferences when opening Copy Editor

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Tina,

it reminds me very much the bug we came across some time ago, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/997284
(although I don´t suppose you have problem with Czech characters ;-) and 
the reason in your case would be different).
The only thing which we have found to help is deleting Evergreen client 
profile on local disc (I guess deleting of one paticular file from the 
profile would be enough, but I don´t know which one).

Hi everyone,

I wonder whether anyone has ever encountered similar case and may help 
shed some light.


One one of our libraries keeps encountering the following error when 
opening Copy Editor. The same error also shows up when changing the 
value in any field on Copy Editor. After confirming the errors, copy 
records can be created/edited.


Error loading preferences: Could not js-ify the JSON: SyntaxError: 
syntax error.


This happens on one particular computer only with difference staff 
accounts. The staff have uninstalled the staff client, downloaded a 
new copy of it form our website, and re-installed it. Cache has been 
cleared. But nothing has changed.


The computer runs Windows Vista. The recent change is updating Flash 
and Java. It used to work without any problem.


Any help will be appreciated.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Is it possible to show in house use count in item status display?

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Gordana,

we have configured new status Reference in our Evergreen for books or
materials we lend only in house. See
http://www.jabok.cuni.cz/opac/en-US/skin/default/xml/rresult.xml?rt=keywordtp=keywordt=soci%C3%A1ln%C3%AD%20pr%C3%A1ce%20v%20praxift=%20subject%7Ctopic%5Bpraxe%5Dl=1d=0f=av=hc=9


We use the new status togeter with Is reference item attribut. We have
Evergreen 2.2 and within  about a year we are using the Reference status
 we didn´t came across any problem with the settings.

On the other hand it doesn't seem as a bad idea to me to create in
Evergreen new status e.g. In house use  that would prevent the item from
being checked out by default.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Any ideas how to include payments from external sources into Evergreen?

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

I wonder whether some of you have any idea concerning possibility of adding
money to patrons account in Evergreen using bank transfers (as described in
Linda´s email below) -  I think it would be quite useful to see the problem
from the different points of view.
If you have any recommendations or ideas, please, let me know as soon as
possible (we are preparing  the grant application to get some money for the
solution and the grant application deadline is approaching quite fast ;-))

Thanks a lot

Eva




2013/11/10 Linda Jansova skolk...@chello.cz

  Dear all,

 Czech library users would appreciate if it was possible to add money to
 their Evergreen account using bank transfers (this way of making payments
 is used by a number of public libraries in our country).

 Our idea is that a CSV file from electronic banking (with a variable
 symbol as a payment identifier, see
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_symbol, and a particular amount of
 money) would be processed with a script that we would write. The script
 output would call an OpenSRF function or insert data into a table.

 If the first method (calling a function) was used, which OpenSRF function
 should be called in order to enable adding money to a particular user
 account (using a user account ID as a variable – or other identifier from
 the electronic banking data – and an amount of money)?

 If the second method (inserting data into a table) was used, which are the
 tables into which the data should be inserted and how should the insertion
 be done?

 Which of these methods would you recommend?

 (Indeed, if there are any other options, we will be more than happy to
 hear about them :-).)

 A programmer would do this work for us (provided that we are awarded grant
 money for this purpose – the grant writing activities are just underway)
 and we would definitely share the results of our work with the Evergreen
 community.

 Thank you in advance for any hints!

 Linda and Vaclav Jansovi (and especially Eva Cerninakova from Jabok
 Library who is about to submit the grant application :-)

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Circulation policy setting - circulation duration rules

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hello everyone,

I am setting circulation policies for new Evergreen system in Evangelical
Theological Seminary Library and I came across a problem with circulation
duration rules application when checking out materials.

The library has the four patron permission groups. Different circulation
policies were created for those groups, with various circulation duration
rules assigned to each group.
There exist also default circulation policy for default (parent) permission
group ,„User“ in the system.

The problem occurs when checking out materials. The circulation duration
rule assigned to permission group „User“ is always applied to ALL
circulations regardless of patron permission group and circulation policy
assigned (E.G. circulation duration rule „60_days_3_renew“ should be
applied to permission group „Internal students“ by checkout  but instead of
it the duration rule „28_days_1_renew“ assigned to group „Users“ is
applied). When renewing checked out materials, the circulation duration
rules are applied correctly (in accordance with the assigned circulation
policy and circulation duration rule)
.
I tried to deactivate the default circulation policy for „User“ group (i.e.
set the circulation policy parameter „active“ for permission group User to
„FALSE“), but when the circulation policy for group „User“ is not active,
the pop-up window appears with error message „Exceptions:
no_matchpoint“ and it is not possible to check out any copy.
It is important to solve the problem, because the library needs various
circulation duration for each patron permission group.

Thanks in advance for any ideas :-).

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Circulation policy setting - circulation duration rules

[Cerninakova Eva]

Many thanks to both of you  for the ideas :-).

As Thomas suggested I have updated renewal rule in circulation policy sets
(although I have done it in  staff client  and set the there the „renewals“
 value  to „unset“). The  problem has been  solved by that and now
 circulation duration rules are applied correctly to each patron permission
group.
Thanks a lot  for a help.

Eva


2014-05-01 21:35 GMT+02:00 Thomas Berezansky tsb...@mvlc.org:

 If renewals are working, and you didn't intend to have renewal-specific
 rules, I would update the rules to set is_renewal to NULL to see if it
 fixes things. It being set to true would make the rules only apply to
 renewals. This can be done with the following SQL statement:

 UPDATE config.circ_matrix_matchpoint SET is_renewal = NULL;

 You will, obviously, need to be more careful if you do have
 renewal-specific rules in place.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Setting Czech language in TPAC

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi

I tried to set Czech as default language in TPAC  (Evergreen version 2.5.3)
but  I was  successful only partly  - some parts or strings of TPAC have
stayed untranslated,  see http://lib.etspraha.cz/eg/opac/home.

I thought about replacing file
'/openils/var/templates/locale/tpac.cs-CZ.po'.
I used the same method as overriding other template files in TPAC, i.e.,
 in '/openils/var/templates_custom/' (where are already storred  another
custom directories and  temlates) I created directory 'locale'.
  Then I tried to download file 'tpac.po' from Launchpad  and copy it as
'tpac.cs-CZ.po' to  '/openils/var/templates_custom/locale/' (although I was
not sure, whether it is possible to do it like this at all).
It did not help, so I tried to edit translations right in original  file
'tpac.cs-CZ.po' (I copied it to
'/openils/var/templates_custom/locale/tpac.cs-CZ.po'). Even this didn´t
work and the state of TPAC translations didn´t change.

I am not sure whether translation updates could work without overriding
(i.e. replace the file 'tpac.cs_CZ.po' right in the original directory
'/openils/var/templates/locale/') or whether it doesn't work like this at
all and there is another (probably more complex) way for updating
translations.

Thank for any ideas

Eva

PS: TPAC template in Launchpad has been  fully translated for some time so
I  wonder whether it could be possible that the newer version of  TPAC
template wasn't included to newer versions of Evergreen?

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Problem registering new patron

[Cerninakova Eva]

 In a new Evergreen system we have a problem registering patrons. Staff
(except admin account) is not able to register new patron or edit patron
account information - only some fields are displayed, see
http://knihovna.jabok.cz/Evergreen/snapshots/edit_patron.jpg or  or
http://knihovna.jabok.cz/Evergreen/snapshots/register_patron.jpg.

Staff permission groups have following configurations:
Editing permission: group_application.user.patron or
group_application.user.staff
Parent group: Staff

Group permissions:
CREATE_USER
CREATE_USER_GROUP_LINK
DELETE_USER
UPDATE_USER
VIEW_USER
group_application.user
group_application.user.patron
group_application.user.staff

We don´t know what does the USER_BTYPE mean, but we also  tried adding:
CREATE_USER_BTYPE
DELETE_USER_BTYPE
UPDATE_USER_BTYPE
VIEW_USER_BTYPE

Permission mentioned above are granted to staff accounts both on the
permission group level and for individual user (via user permission
editor).

Staff accounts have assigned appropriate working location too.

Registering new patron is impossible even for the local system
administrator account, that have all above mentioned permissions granted
for the consortium depth (and can also grant them) and has the 'EVERYTHING'
permission granted on the branch level.

Is there anything else that should be set up to enable staff to edit or
register new user?

Thanks for any ideas

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] help with fix due date check out

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Janice,

your problem reminds me little bit the problem I solved couple weeks ago,
see
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.education.libraries.open-ils.general/9723

Eva



2014-05-19 16:44 GMT+02:00 Thomas Berezansky tsb...@mvlc.org:

 One question to start with:

 Is your fixed date more than 4 weeks away or less? If more, did you set
 the option to make it take effect always instead of just being a cut off
 date?


 Quoting Janice Huber janice.hu...@asburyseminary.edu:

  We are getting ready to go live in July. I have been struggling to get a
 successful test of the fixed due date check out. I was under the belief
 that I could set a cir rule that would make that happen but when I check
 out a book to myself it only gives me the default four weeks.

 Any ideas? Any volunteers to talk with me by phone?

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] match point issue/date due problem-altered now

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Janice,


I am not sure I understand quite well, whether the „no_matchpoint“ problem
occurs when checking out any book or whether it occurs only for one
particular book with the barcode 123285.
If it happens with the one particular book only, I would guess the problem
might be related to item attributes and probably some of the attributes
defined in the circulation policies are missing or having a wrong value .
For example in our library it  happens - according circulation policies -
with items that have „is reference“ flag or when circulation modifier is
missing (but it could be anything else, like wrong or missing user home
library etc.).

 Okay, I got good thoughts and suggestions for my Hard Due date issue but
 when I tried to delete and add a new Hard Due date to start over, I started
 to get a message that starts with a no match points message and goes on

 *We were able to add a duration rule of default and leave the hard due
 date actively in a field also but now we get the message of no match
 points and then There was a network failure.*

 The consistent issue here is no match points. I have checked everywhere
 I can, making sure the default circulation policy has an entry for things
 like duration rule and max fines but something is not matching...

 Can anyone help? Fishing around all day is not getting it done.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Searching for author using the link in search results

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

we had  updated our Evergreen to from 2.2 to 2.6 and I discovered the
problem when using the link to author  in the search results and record
details. Some  subfields (e.g. 7 or d) of fields 100 or 700 are
displayed as a part  of the link to author seach in search result or record
details but when using the link no results are retruned no matter whether
the records exist or not.

For example when I search for Dominik Aubrecht I got two record, see
https://www.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?query=aubrecht+dominik
but when clicking on link  13483 Aubrecht, Dominik
https://www.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?query=13483%20Aubrecht%20%20Dominik;qtype=author;locg=102
in search result page I  get the error message:  Sorry, no entries were
found fo 13483 Aubrecht Dominik.

Another examples:
https://www.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?query=lafollette
https://www.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?query=odilo+štampach

There was no problem in our previous  version 2.2 because we used  JSPAC
but now in the TPAC it works like this.


Do you have any ideas how could I solve this problem?
Thanks a lot

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Searching for author using the link in search results

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Elaine,

it is true that the author link in the  facet works fine in our catalog.
But the problem is that it is quite confusing for our patrons if they get
no entry  when clicking the author link in search results or record details
although the record/s exist/s.

As far as I know, the same think  with author link happens to the library
of Evangelical Theological Seminary in Prague  and they have the Evergreen
version 2.5.3 (although I think they do not use subfield $d for date of
birth or death, so the problem concerns the subfield $7 only in their
case), see
http://lib.etspraha.cz/eg/opac/results?query=matou%C5%A1ekqtype=authorfi%3Aitem_type=sort=

My first idea how to solve it was to delete the difficult subfields but I
am afraid We could  get rid nor of authors dates nor of  subfield $7 (at
least because the subfield $7 is used as a linking  authority number for
the  Czech national authorities which we are planning to implement soon).

I  looked at MARC  records in  Pines catalog and I saw Pines uses subfield
$0 for  Pines authority number (or something like that) with no problem and
the subfield $d works fine in the Pines catalog too.

I only  guess the problem has something to do with the processing URLs for
author link i TPAC template /openils/var/opac/parts/record/authors.tt2
(perhaps in the template section BLOCK build_author_links; ...) and
maybe as well in  the template /openils/var/opac/parts/result/table.tt2?
But unfortunately I am not sure at it as I am not much familiar with
template toolkit  :-(.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Searching for author using the link in search results

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Elaine,


Bens proposal to edit the misc-util.tt2 template was the right solution and
I am sure this will not cause any problem with national authorities - the
field 7 in 1XX and 7XX stays in the record, it is only not handled as a
part of the link to the author (and the search query performed by clicking
it).
After I made the change recommended by Ben, I discovered that I might have
misled you because the field d for date didn't cause any problem (I
thought it did, but it was a mistake).

Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it :-)

 Eva,



 Both |0 and |d are assigned subfields for MARC21 1xx and 7xx fields. |0 is
 for authority record control numbers and |d is of course the date. I think
 your problem may be that you are using an unassigned subfield for your
 authority control numbers, so Evergreen isn’t recognizing the entire field.
 I do think it is curious that it does so in the facets but not the result
 set – don’t mean to suggest that as a work around for you; but, as a clue
 to the problem for programmers.



 If you edited all your |7s in 1xx and 7xx fields, what impact would that
 have on future linking to your national authorities?

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Strange message when overriding hold in Czech OPAC

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

I would like to ask for a help or hint in following matter:
According to our hold policies  we want to warn users when they place a
hold if there is a local copy available in the library. That is why I set
up the has local copy alert to true In the Library settings editor. In
the cases when user places a hold and  there is a local copy available in
the library  the message appear, that the hold was not  successfully
 placed  and the action must be canceled or overridden. So far so good.

But the problem is that Instead of the message:

Problem: There is already copy available at you local library
which is displayed when the OPAC language is set to English - see
http://knihovna.jabok.cz/Evergreen/snapshots/hold-overrriding-en.jpg),

if the Czech is on in the OPAC the message describing the problem looks
like this:

Project-Id-Version: evergreen Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: FULL NAME
EMAIL@ADDRESS POT-Creation-Date: YEAR-MO-DA HO:MI+ZONE PO-Revision-Date:
2012-05-05 14:07+ Last-Translator: Eva Cerninakova Unknown

(see http://knihovna.jabok.cz/Evergreen/snapshots/hold-overrriding-cz.jpg).


I am sure it is a bug to be reported (I will do that).

But the thing is that at the moment I need to solve the problem of holds
with local copy available in our system. Don´t you have any idea, what
could I do? I guess the problem  must have something to do with the
language template file cs-CZ.po in /openils/var/data/locale/cs-CZ.po  as
the string that appears in the unsuccessful hold error message contains
some text from the top of the template file (see
http://knihovna.jabok.cz/Evergreen/cs-CZ.po).

Do you think the problem could  be solved by some changes in the template
file in question?

Thanks a lot for any idea.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Adding copy barcode/ID to the invoice print output template

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all

Due to Czech accounting rules we need to hand over a list  containing copy
barcodes/IDs related to every paid invoice  item saved in Evergreen
Acquisition to our Accounting Department. We use report module for printing
overview of copy barcodes attached to each invoice, but this way is a bit
laborious. If the barcode could be added to the trigger event definition
template processed on demand when printing the invoice, it would save us
much time and effort. I have previously successfully  customized the
Invoice template in Notification / Action Triggers interface according
to most of our needs but as I am not a template toolkit expert I failed to
add barcode(s) of item paid to the template output.
Is there an easy way to add copy barcode (or at least ID) to the Invoice
trigger event definition  template (e.g. do you think  using a part of the
lineitem worksheet trigger event definition template would solve the
problem)?


Thanks in advance for your ideas :-)

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Importing authority record via Z39.50

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

I would like to ask you for comments or Ideas in following problem:

We are planing implementation of Czech nation authorities in our Evergreen
 at the time. Considering various workflow scenarios we discovered that in
some cases the most convenient workflow  would be for us importing single
authority record via Z39.50.

Is there a way to save record imported to Evergreen via Z39.50 as authority
record?

I made some test and imported authority records from Czech National
authority database to Evergreen. I did not have a problem importing those
records via Z39.50, but unfortunately the imported records were saved as
bibliographic, NOT as authority  records . This meant such records did not
appear in authority list (in „manage authorities interface)  likewise they
were not visible for searching and applying to bibliographic record (when
editing bibliographic MARC record). Although the imported authority records
are labeled as !Record type: AUT (in MARC editor),  I have noticed, that
there is value biblio in subfield  901 $ t. I tried to change the value
to  „authority“, but after saving record  the value was always back to
„biblio“.

Have I missed something (e.g.. some necessary settings) or it is impossible
in Evergreen to save record imported via Z39.50 as authority record ?

I will really appreciate your ideas.

Thanks a lot.

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Tracking OPAC use for statistics

Hi George,

do you mean that you are planing tracking OPAC use for  a future or do  you
mean you need to mine the information how the OPAC was used previously?

Currently we use Google analytics for OPAC statistics, but until recently
we used home made script extracting the data from Apache log (the script
is very simple but used to work fine for us). If you are interested  (or
anyone else) I can share it.

  We use google analytics to track website usage information within the

 that you’ve asked for specifically, but it would be a rough indicator of
 such.



 I have a feeling the information could be gathered through logs, or
 something to that effect, but I don’t imagine many people would want to do

 I’ll let someone else chime in though, there are far better sources of

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authority records

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,


We are currently trying to implement Czech National authorities into
Evergreen and  have some question concerning authority records  (and may be
contribution to the debate on authorities during Evergreen conference in
Hood River) .

1) Does Evergreen support Z39.50 update function? Libraries in the Czech
Republic are involved in creation of  authority records s and  the issue of
Z39.50 update  is crucial  because tool providing update of records of the
Czech national  authorities by cooperating libraries  is based on Z39.50
update function.

 Hi all,


 We are currently trying to implement Czech National authorities into
 Evergreen and  have some question concerning authority records  (and may be
 contribution to the debate on authorities during Evergreen conference in
 Hood River) .

 1) Does Evergreen support Z39.50 update function? Libraries in the Czech
 Republic are involved in creation of  authority records s and  the issue of
 Z39.50 update  is crucial  because tool providing update of records of the
 Czech national  authorities by cooperating libraries  is based on Z39.50
 update function.


 No, Evergreen does not support any Z39.50 update functions at this time,
 and as far as I know there are no plans to support update via Z39.50.


 2) Is it possible to replace Evergreen system authority number in field
 001 with Czech National authority control number? According to the  Czech

 If you disable the maintain control numbers global flag, then this might
 be possible; testing required. Note that that would also affect how control
 numbers are maintained for bibliographic records.

 If you have administrator access, then you should be able to find this
 setting in the staff client under Admin - Server Admin - Global Flags. If
 not, but you have SQL access to the database, it would be UPDATE
 config.global_flag SET enabled = FALSE WHERE name =
 'cat.maintain_control_numbers';

 A simplistic approach to preventing control number maintenance for only
 authority records would be to modify the public.maintain_control_numbers()
 database function to check for an authority-record specific flag (something
 like 'cat.maintain_authority_control_numbers') and have that override the
 general global flag.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen and Zotero - encoding problems

[Cerninakova Eva]

Ones more again many thanks for the tip how to fix the problem. We have
applied the fix to Jabok Library catalog and the problem with character
encoding is solved for now :-).

When it comes to Zotero, would like to add one more note about incorrect
Zotero document type (as I have discovered  some Evergreen libraries  have
the problem as well and  I thought it might be worth mentioning):

Some time ago  we noticed, that Zotero did not detect correct type of the
document in our Evergreen catalog.  Especially for the book type the
document type was not recognized (and saved in Zotero)  as book but as
universal type „document“. This also  meant that Zotero icon in the catalog
in  address bar showed  „document“ not „book“. Because the document type
was correct sometimes and sometimes not, we try to explored the problem
deeper.
We came to conclusion that the solution lies in coded values in field 008.
From Zotero point of view it is very  important to fill in the value for
„Nature of contents“ (positions 24-27). We also found that for book type
also positions 29 (Conference publication), 30 (Festschrift ) or 34
(Biography)  may affect the display of type of document: if position 24-27
are empty, and  some of above mentioned position o 008 field have value
provided, the type of document is displayed as book.
I am aware the matter is probably more complex and our conclusion might not
be comprehensive  but I hope even this lot might be useful for someone.

  Hi,

 Our colleagues in Jabok Library would like to promote the usage of their
 Evergreen OPAC as Zotero source data so that their patrons (and others of
 course) would be able to import individual bibliographic records to Zotero
 reference management system (https://www.zotero.org/).

 When used as a Mozilla Firefox plugin, it is clear that the data are
 imported via unAPI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UnAPI; unfortunately
 the homepage at http://unapi.info/  does not seem to be working; a bit
 of unAPI documentation is available at
 http://code4lib.org/files/unapi_revision_1-14.html, though maybe it is
 not the latest version).

 Everything seems to work fine with one exception and these are records
 with non-ASCII characters such as letters with diacritics (č for
 example). As Czech language uses plenty of these, this issue virtually
 prevents us from using Evergreen as Zotero data source.

 However, I have had a look at other Evergreen catalogs (including the
 one from Laurentian University) and it seems to me that the problem is also
 present there, e.g.
 https://laurentian.concat.ca/eg/opac/record/104728?query=francais;qtype=keyword;locg=105;detail_record_view=1
 (Le francais renouvelé - the é character is wrongly interpreted as could
 be seen at the attached picture).

 Both in Jabok library catalog and in the catalog at Laurentian I have
 encountered the same problem when trying to print sample records with these
 say special characters, e.g.
 https://laurentian.concat.ca/eg/opac/record/print/104728?query=francais;qtype=keyword;locg=105;detail_record_view=1

 Firefox seems to interpret the character encoding as Unicode when
 viewing the usual (not the print) version of the bib record but when one
 hits the Print button and then - when the print version is displayed -
 checks the encoding, Firefox interprets it as Western. Koha users have also
 been trying to sort out a similar issue (
 https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/39395/koha-translator-encoding-problem/)
 - in their case the solution seems to be to modify opac-export.pl to
 export as UTF8.

 Any ideas how to fix the issue in Evergreen? (Jabok uses Evergreen
 2.6.4.)

 Thank you in advance for sharing any hints!


  Hi, that's an interesting problem. Zotero uses Evergreen's MODS output,
 and it seems that the problem crept into the conversions that use specific
 MODS versions; compare

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Customizing OPAC for each library in consortium

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

We are currently creating our first tiny Evergreen consortium, and I have a
question concerning the  OPAC settings.

Is there a possibility to customize the OPAC differently for each library
in consortium?
The desired functionality is something like this:

   1. When patron from Library1 opens the link to catalog
   - the default search library on the catalog homepage  is set to
  Library1
  - the OPAC homepage is customized just for Library1 (i. e. patron
  sees only the information related  to  Library1,  maybe logo of Library1
  etc.).
   2. Similarly when patron from Library2 opens the link to catalog - the
   default search library on the catalog homepage  is set to Library2 etc.

I know how to create the custom TPAC templates directory and how to set the
template overriding in Apache, but as I understand it, the custom template
for each library is applied only when patron is logged in to OPAC.

 Is there a possibility to customize catalog pages without logging in?
(According to several Evergreen consortia  catalogs I have examined it
seems to me that this is possible. But how?)

Could you please give me a hit, how to do it?


Thanks a lot.

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authorities

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Yamil,

you´ve put your finger on it ;-).  When I changed the value "n" on position
11 into  appropriate thesaurus value,  the autority record in Evergreenhas
been  assigned to the right thesaurus defined for the Czech autorities
 control set. Which  means we will have to change the value in the 008
field of all authority records in the import file :-(.

Thanks a lot, Yamil, this helped us  to solve one of our problems :-)

authority record batch updating. Thanks in advance

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authorities

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

We are currently  working on implementation of Czech national authorities
to Evergreen. We have already done a lot of work but yet new and new
problems to be solved  emerge before us ;-) .
 I would like to ask you for a help with  two questions:

1)  *How is it possible to define a controls set  for authority batch
import?*
So far we have defined new control set for national authorities, we have
 assigned  thesauri to it and addend authority fields. Than we have
successfully  imported MARC XML file containing Czech national
 authorities.
The problem is that each of the imported authority record have been
automatically  assigned to the thesaurus „n“ (which stands for „not
applicable“) defined in Library of Congress control  set.  How shall we
define the proper thesaurus and control set? Is it possible to define the
thesaurus and control set for the import file  (e.g. in the import script)?
Or is it necessary to add appropriate thesaurus code somewhere to  MARC
authority record  in the import file before the import?

2) My second question is *how do you provide the regular batch update of
existing authority record in Evergreen*? Could you share your workflow with
us? As we consider possible  scenario for updating authority records that
already exist in the Evergreen without breaking the  linking to
bibliographic records any idea would by very helpful for us.

Thanks a lot
Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Changing the Currency Symbol

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Jayaraj


There is a setting in Admin that allows you to set up a currency type  for
the Acquisition, see http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.8/_currency_types.html.
I believe you must have admin_currency_type permission to be able to change
the setting.
After you have set a new currency  you can assign it to any provider.

About fines  it might be more complex:

   - For the patron account display in OPAC you can change the currency in
   the tt2 template /openils/var/templates/ opac/part/header.tt2. Tthere you
   would want to edit the value for "USE money = format" . I would recommend
   not to change the original file but to use overriding the template instead,
   see http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.8/_how_to_override_templates.html
   - In the staff client it is not so easy. For the Czech localization we
decided to replace the currency symbol $ with  the Czech currency symbol
   when translating the Evergreen into Czech. This  means there is a Czech
   currency symbol displaed in the bills and fines interface of the staff
   client. The Czech translation strings for the bills and  fines are stored
   in /openils/var/web/xul/rel-2_8_2/server/locale/ cs-CZ/circ.properties.
I suppose editing this file might solve your problem (but of course
   instead of cs-CZ you must choose the appropriate directory depending of the
   localization you use).

Hope this helps

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen translations by the numbers

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

I tried to summarize the previous discussion about (not) including
languages and translations  to Evergreen according to actual translations
activity/support:

1) For the future releases the translation should be supported only when it
meets at least one of the following criteria:

- At least  70 % of translations are complete
- Translations have been updated within the past 12 months and at
least 50 % are complete
- It is known there is someone actively working on the translations
- There is a known living Evergreen catalog using the given language
- The en-* variation of translations should have an exception from
criteria above as they are a special case.

2)  Role of translations coordinator

- He/she should communicate with translators  and provide
information from Evergreen translators to developers and vice versa
- If possible he/she should help translators with issues related to
Evergreen translations in Launchpad etc.

3) As I have already noted before I can volunteer as  a translations
coordinator  at present.

4) It will be necessary to fix the person I shall communicate with. Should
this person be release manager? Or anyone else?

5) I am planning to contact translators to all languages and find out
information about the situation of particular  translations (if it is
supported, used  etc.).  I suppose I will use Launchpad for it. However it
will be very helpful if you send me names (or contact also if possible)  of
translators if  you have an information about them.

6) From the previous conversation I understood that the proposal to skip
some unused languages concerns the future releases. It seems reasonable to
me as Idon´t think I will be able gather all  information necessary for the
decision whether  (not) to include particular language soon enough before
2.11 release (I am currently working on a project with quite close deadline
so I have limited time available).
However If there is a general consensus that we want to cut off the
unsupported languages immediately, according to criteria mentioned above
following languages should be definitely included to Evergreen at the
moment:

cs-CZ  -- Czech (98,77 % complete)
hy-AM  -- Armenian (79.18% complete)
fi-FI  -- Finnish (73.09% complete)
en-CA  -- English (Canada) (70.73% complete + "en-*" variation )
en-GB  -- English (UK) (66,89 % complete - active within past 12 months +
"en-*" variation)
pt-BR  -- Brazilian Portuguese (58.84% complete -  active within past 12
months)
fr-CA  -- French (52.84% complete - active within past 12 months)
es-ES  -- Spanish (39.57% complete but there is known activity and number
of translations continues to grow every day :-) )

7) As a person trying to watch the new strings to translate I would
appreciate having information about new parts of Evergreen to translate
actually added to Launchpad. Does anyone know if it is possible to make
some setting in Launchpad to get information about newly added translation
strings? May be there is such function  and I only  was not able to
discover it. Or  (in case it is not)  would it be possible to send me a
message when new translation strings are added?  -  I will share the
information with other translators too. Thanks a lot.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen translations by the numbers

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

>From the perspective of Evergreen  translator  the proposal  to  narrow the
focus to  languages that have actual users seems to be quite reasonable to
me.

I also agree with Galens criteria - in my experience  if the locale project
is living  the translations are surely updated at least ones a year. Also
the amount of translated strings  usually does not drop below 70% (not
even  when translation of new parts of Evergreen like web client have been
added to Launchpad).
I would only recommend  to include one more criterion:
To keep the translation if there is a living Evergreen catalog using the
given language (although I think that at present it is not topical).


I wonder what  would the "translation coordinator" exactly mean?
Would it just meen to keep an eye on translation statuses and activity in
Launchpad and  communicate with translators on one side  and Evergreen
developers on the other side good time before the Evergreen release?
In that case I think I could do it.

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Hold settings

[Cerninakova Eva]

Holdability of the copy can be affected also by  "Reference" flag. When
"Referece is set to "Yes", the copy is not holdable and can´t circulate
even if both are set to "yes".

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Launchpad translations: "This translation is not open for changes."

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Jane,

Which translation did you used?
You should be able to see and edit Evergreen translations as it has the
"open" permission (which means that anyone can submit translations directly
to the  project in Launchpad).

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] opposite of force/recall hold

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Holly,

when we need to catch particular copy of material that is circulating at a
time and don't want to place a hold, we usually use the "Alert message" in
copy editor. When the copy is being checked in (or out)  the message pops
out and the staff is alerted that an action should be taken with the copy
(I am not sure if there isn´t any settling that could affect the popping
out). The alert message pops out until it has been deleted. It is possible
to apply the alert message to more copies at once.

I think this might solve your problem temporarily (though I understand that
it might be complication to confirm the overriding of alert message every
time the DVD is being checked in/out until the DVD is no more on hold).

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Web Client installation

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Nawras,

I have solved  the  very same problem few hours ago ;-)
If you do not have valid  certificate (issued by certificate authority),
you have to take the following steps:

- Open the page https://localhost:7682 (replace localhost by URL of your
catalog) and accept the certificate
- The do the same at the page https://localhost/eg/staff
Than you should be able to log in to web staff client .

Hope this help

Hi all,

I have added information  concerning  Evergreen translations  and related
topics (like translations workflow, useful tips for translators etc.) to
Evergreen DokuWiki,
see https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=eg_translations
The page is intended primarily for translators (but some information might
be probably useful for others too).

If you have any comments or suggestions for improving, you are welcome to
send me note or directly edit the DokuWiki page.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Issue holds

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

does anyone have an experience with serial issues holds?

We started circulating serial issues some time ago. It has brought the need
to the staff or patrons to place hold on particular serial issue time to
time (if the desired issue has been checked out). However, the serial issue
hold capturing behave differently from book holds. In a fact, any serial
issue have never been successfully captured for the hold at check in and
the same applies for a Hold capture interface.
We looked at the record holds list interface. There has been displayed
information "no copy" in the "current copy" column. This has not changed
even after the particular serial issue has been checked in.
I have checked whether the copy of the serial issues or shelving location
has been  holdable - they definitely has. I have also tried various check
in modificators. Nothing have worked for us.
Could I have miss any setting? Or could it be a bug?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Cataloging template for a specific OU

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

is it possible  to apply cataloging template for only  a specific
Organizational Unit  in Evergreen consortium?

We have some cataloging templates  with pre-filled data specific for
particular library (e.g., cataloging template for theses) and there is no
point to show those templates to libraries that don´t use it. I have tried
to "hide" them placing the specific templates to "marc" folder in existing
custom templates folder (analogically as for the TPAC custom  templates),
editing  the settings in "marc templates" section in opensrf.xml (and
restarting Evergreen). However, all cataloging templates are still visible
for any library in the consortium.

Have I missed something? Or is it currently impossible  in Evergreen to
apply specific cataloging template to specific library only?
Thanks for the ideas.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reading History opt in on patron application

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

I know it is a little bit out of the topic, but I have another question 
regarding patrons reading history:


We were asked by some libraries, whether it is possible in Evergreen to 
alert staff at checkout in cases when a patron had already borrowed the 
same book before. Such feature is available in most of the ILS that are 
used  in the Czech Republic  and patrons  (and librarians too) find it 
quite useful.


Is there such possibility in Evergreen? I don't think so, but I just want 
to be sure.


By the way, Czech libraries would also appreciate reading history opt in on 
patron application ;-)

Hey Josh,

An interesting proposal. I think it would be a neat addition to to add to
patron registration process.

Like Terran, staff being able to view a patrons reading history would be
better off as a togglable library setting. The fact that we can retrieve a
patrons reading history is a somewhat guarded secret due to privacy
concerns in our consortium.

Thanks,

Hello, we are running into the fact that many of our patrons that want to
make use of a reading history, don’t find out about it until long after
they sign up for an account. Many of these patrons are also non
computer/online catalog users, so there is no chance that they would ever
find the option to enable it themselves, and even if they knew about it,
they wouldn’t be able to set it themselves.  So they find out about it
after talking with staff, and then get mad when they find out that it will
only have their history starting at the point they sign up.  Since they
don’t use computers, they need staff to walk them through (do it for them)
logging into their account and finding the option, so it would be handy if
staff could just do it for them.



We could set the library setting to default the checkout history to being
enabled, but we really don’t want to make that decision for everyone, and
then put the onus on them to figure out how to use the catalog to turn it
off.



So we are considering adding an opt in checkbox to the patron application,
along with a user setting that staff can check, to allow staff to enable
the circ history at patron registration time.  The user setting being
checked or unchecked would trigger a nightly process that would
enable/disable the reading history for that account.



In theory, this could result in a customer saying that they never signed
up for the feature, saying that staff did it on their own.  But since it is
already trivially easy for staff to log into the catalog as a customer, it
seems like that would already be a problem.  (staff know what the default
pin numbers are based on, or could just change the pin, a customer that
never uses the catalog would never know that the pin was changed)



Has anyone else done this or something like this?  Is this a horrible idea?



I think staff would also like to be able to access the patrons history
from their staff stations, which would make readers advisory easier.
“Which Louis L’Amour titles haven’t I read yet”.



We have had problems in the past with patrons physically marking books
that they have read before, to make it easier for them to find the ones
they haven’t read.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 3.2 Preparing for XUL client removal / browser client blockers

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

for the Czech Evergreen community the browser client blockers are some
parts of the web staff client, that are shown as "untranslated". For
example untranslated  field labels on patron edit/registration screen
, profile permission
groups, statuses and copy locations
,  overriding checkout
failure messages   or patron
alert blocks. 

Since we have started to test the web staff client localization great
progress has been made and it is nice to see every promising change. Many
thanks to all who have contributed to it.  :-)

However, issues mentioned above are critical for us, especially for
circulating staff who must quickly respond to various difficult situations
in contact with patrons. This is a real obstacle to using a web client in
production in Czech libraries. And the list does not end there.

Our insight into localization issues is very limited, but i f we can help,
we will do our best - we really  look forward to enjoying with the other
Evergreen community all excellent new features available in web client like
email receipts, batch editing of patron records, notice columns in Items
out grid etc. ;-)

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Z39.50 Source

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

During the weekend,  I have set up a new Z39.50 source  in our catalog. The
source  is  provided by the Czech library portal Knihovny.cz

As the Z39.50 source is free (no credentials needed) and contains records
from various European libraries outside the Czech Republic, I wonder if it
could be useful for other Evergreen libraries too.

Following library catalogs are included into the Z39.50 source:


   - University of Oxford (UK)
   - Bibsys (Norway)
   - University of Basel (Switzerland)
   - Slovak National Library (Slovakia)
   - Network of Libraries and Information Centers in Switzerland
   - Norwegian national bibliography (Norway)
   - GBV Common Library Network of the German States Bremen, Hamburg,
   Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Niedersachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein,
   Thüringen and the Foundation of Prussian Cultural Heritage (Germany)
   - Library of Congress (USA)


If you are interesting, you can find the necessary settings for Evergreen
bellow.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reading History opt in on patron application

[Cerninakova Eva]

Rogan,

thanks for your note. I am glad I am sure about the current state now.
You are definitely  right about the workflow - if not thoroughly thought
out, such feature could potentially slow down the checkout process . I
think I will try to find out how this  is dealt with in other ILS and
libraries workflow ;-)

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Check out history CSV download contains less information than displayed within a browser?

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Jesse,

You can configure  template for  the checkout history CSV download in the
staff client:
Admin > Local Administration > Notification/Action Trigger
The name of the trigger event definition for CSV output is "Circ History
CSV"

However, in our system the  CSV is the same  (by default) as what  patron
can  view in web browser.
The template for CSV output looks like this:


Title,Author,Call Number,Barcode,Format
[%-
FOR circ IN target;
bibxml = helpers.unapi_bre(circ.target_copy.call_number.record, {flesh
=> '{mra}'});
title = "";
FOR part IN bibxml.findnodes('//*[@tag="245"]/*[@code="a" or
@code="b"]');
title = title _ part.textContent;
END;
author = bibxml.findnodes('//*[@tag="100"]/*[@code="a"]').textContent;
item_type =
bibxml.findnodes('//*[local-name()="attributes"]/*[local-name()="field"][@name="item_type"]').getAttribute('coded-value')
%]

[%- helpers.csv_datum(title) -%],
[%- helpers.csv_datum(author) -%],
[%- helpers.csv_datum(circ.target_copy.call_number.label) -%],
[%- helpers.csv_datum(circ.target_copy.barcode) -%],
[%- helpers.csv_datum(item_type) %]
[%- END -%]





Hope this helps ;-)

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Check out history CSV download contains less information than displayed within a browser?

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Jesse,

I think I was probably wrong :-(
I looked once more again at the template and it seems to me that the
definition of CSV output in our system probably could not be configured by
the template "Circ History CSV". I don´t see  anything like "Checkout Date"
or "Due Date"  in the template in trigger event definition.  However, I
definitely have the Checkout Date,   Due Date and  Date Returned column in
checkout history CSV output in my account. So probably  the definition for
the CSV output would be somewhere else. I wonder if it could have changed
in some of the Evergreen versions (we use Evergreen   2.12)?
Sorry for the confusion.

Eva

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reports - Simple Record Extracts

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

after upgrade from Evergreen 2.10 to 2.12 (currently we are on 2.12.4) we
have discovered that some values extracted from the bibliographic record
were not  included to reports. This specifically applies to simple record
extracts, particularly to these fields:

Item -> Call Number/Volume -> Bib Record -> Simple Record Extracts ->
Author (normalized)
Item -> Call Number/Volume -> Bib Record -> Simple Record Extracts -> Title
Proper (normalized)
Item -> Call Number/Volume -> Bib Record -> Simple Record Extracts ->
Publisher (normalized)
Item -> Call Number/Volume -> Bib Record -> Simple Record Extracts ->
Publication Year (normalized)
Item -> Call Number/Volume -> Bib Record -> Simple Record Extracts -> ISBN

The problem concerns not only "item" source (also "Invoice" and other
sources using simple record extracts), however, *applies only to records
created after the upgrade* - in cases when record had been created before
upgrade and only new copy was added after the upgrade,  the record extracts
are included to report correctly, see example
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12KmF3jWjwWWFAzUt99HgF5rcWSh4Z8Bbj248iD1hn50/edit?usp=sharing
(items added after upgrade are red).


Could this be a bug?
And is there a way how to get correct values in autor column, title column
etc.  to reports? Maybe there is any other  way than using simple record
extracts?
Thanks a lot for any hint.

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Towards more consistent terminology in the web client

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,

let me add a few notes about consistent terminology both from the
perspective of a person who trains staff to work in Evergreen and from the
point of view of the Evergreen translator.
In both cases I would definitely advocate for the maximum consistency of
used terms (however, I also agree with Dan that in some cases it is
important to keep in mind the clarity of a particular term in its context).

Evergreen is very complex ILS. So if you are Evergreen newcomer, learn
about Evergreen functions or try specify the optimal library workflow, it
always makes things easier if the same term is always used for the same
thing (no matter whether you are system manager, cataloger, circulator
etc.).

When it comes to translations, the consistency is perhaps even more
important. As the strings are translated separately from the Evergreen,
using more terms for the same thing can be confusing or problematic in many
ways.

Just one example:  During translation I came across the term "location",
that was probably originally used for the "library" or "organizational
unit" in Evergreen, but in some cases it was also used in the meaning of
"Shelving location". Both terms were translated differently to Czech, so
this particular case of inconsistency was really misleading not only for
translators but primarily for the Evergreen users. Unfortunately, the
"location" inconsistency (or similar cases) is  impossible to solve using
different translation terms (as during the last year it turned out, that
if  one English term had two or more different translations available in
the chosen locale language, the web staff client didn't translate the term
at all).

Another example: Some English terms can be translated many ways (e.g., word
"hold" is possible to translate to Czech by about fifty words). This means,
that additional (inconsistently used) term coud lead to different
translation and could in some cases slightly shift the meaning of the
translation string. Moreover, due to further terms the number of
translation strings increases too. This may cause unwanted inconsistencies
in translations that may have negative consequences on localization
functionality in some cases.

By the way, number of translation strings increases not only by
inconsistently used terms but also due to "typing inconsistencies" like
Activate On — Activate on, Add Special Issue — Add special issue, Apply
Standing Penalty/Message — Apply Standing Penalty / Message, Call Number —
Callnumber, Identification Type2 — Identification Type 2, etc.

As translator are usually the first who come across such inconsistencies, I
wonder if we could help a little with the issue. For example it would be
possible to settle on what to do in such cases (like sending email, adding
the term to Launchpad bug or on specific Evergreen dokuwiki page etc.).

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Date and currency formats in the web staff client

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

we have successfully  set up the date format using the Library Settings
Editor

However, we have not found yet  the currency setting for the patron
billing  interface in the web staff client (see the attachment).
There is "currency" string used in some TT2 templates (e.g.,
Open-ILS/src/templates/staff/circ/patron/t_bills.tt2
<http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=blob;f=Open-ILS/src/templates/staff/circ/patron/t_bills.tt2;h=bdc6c276d8a607a6fc98c8f5b567ba702901c3e5;hb=HEAD>
)
Is there a way to setup the "currency"  other  than USD in the patron
interface in the staff client?
It is unclear to us where the staff client takes currency variable.  Could
it possibly be from Open-ILS/src/perlmods/lib/OpenILS/SIP/Patron.pm:420
<http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.git;a=blob;f=Open-ILS/src/perlmods/lib/OpenILS/SIP/Patron.pm>?
Would it be possible to change the setting here?

Thanks for any hint
Eva

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Mike,

Many Thanks  for the explanation.

I agree, that better use of the permission description field displaying
instead of/ in addition to the code would  sufficiently solve  the
permission translation issue.

I have opened the wishlist bug regarding fixed field mnemonics translation:

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Fixed-field elements mnemonic names translations

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,


I have a question about translation of fixed-field elements mnemonic names
(like BLvl, DtSt, Audn etc, see
https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/fixedfield.html.) used in Evergreen in
the fixed field grid. We have not translated the mnemonic names to Czech
yet (and as far as a know, neither they have  been  translated to some of
supported Evergreen languages). However,  it turned out eventually,  that
the using of English mnemonic names is not very practical for Czech
catalogers. That is why we would like to translate them to Czech now. At
this point two practical question came up:

1. Must translation necessarily consist of only  four characters, as the
original mnemonic names mostly do? Or would it be possible use to use more
characters for translation, possibly from six to eight (e.g. Ctry translate
as ZemVyd, or GPub translate as VladPub) without causing a crush of the fix
field grid interface?

2. Is it safe to use a special Czech characters (extended ASCII characters
like ž, š, č, ř ...) for mnemonic names translation? Or could i cause a
problem?


Thanks in advance for an answer

Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Fixed-field elements mnemonic names translations

[Cerninakova Eva]

Ben and Mike,

Thanks both of you for very useful information.

I must admit I have been  little surprised by your answers. I was sure it
is possible to translate those strings (at least in XUL client)  because I
found them in Launchpad translations in fm-idl.dtd template (see e.g.
https://translations.launchpad.net/evergreen/master/+pots/fm-idl.dtd/cs/+translate?batch=10=all=Audn)
. I only asked to make sure how to deal with them  because I suspected that
the values represent a special codes and could be used by system
differently than ordinary strings (which turned out to be true).
Thanks for pushing new branch - I will open a Launchpad wishlist bug and
send the link

I have one   more question, that is similar to the previous. I would like
to translate  Evergreen permissions too. This could be useful for staff at
least in situation, when pop-up window appears with important information
about insufficient permission etc. I have found those permissions in
Launchpad translations too (in this case in db.seed template, see e.g.
https://translations.launchpad.net/evergreen/master/+pots/db.seed/cs/+translate?batch=10=all=UPDATE_COPY_STATUS).
Again, I was not sure whether to translate this because this looks like
"system string" that could be handled specifically by the Evergreen.
Is it safe to translate it (may be I should also ask whether permissions
are translatable at the moment).

Thanks for one more answer ;-)

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] batch editing shelving location change problem

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi John,

What is the status of checked-in items?

If it is "in transit", it may have something to do with the workstation 
registration library. I believe by default the "Stack" shelving location is 
associated with "Consortium"  and if new locations are associated with 
other particularlibrary, the system may  put the cheched-in items to 
transit  to the shelving location library (depending on the  library where 
the workstation has been registered).

Can you go to the Copy Locations Editor and double check that "Checkin

Good afternoon folks,

I've been helping one of our Maine Balsam member libraries update their
shelving locations.

They hadn't created any aside from the default stacks, so we added
specifics like adult nonfiction, easy, DVD, etc. After getting a
spreadsheet of their holdings and sorting by call#, I showed them how to
run a text file of 100 or so barcodes through item status, highlight the
lot and change location to the one they wanted.  So far, so good, but
every time any changed item is checked in, they get a popup screen
saying 'this item needs to be rerouted to the updated location. Is there
something I missed, or a reasonable fix so they don't have to deal with
these popups every time. We're running 2.8.3

Thank you,

John Clark-Maine Balsam Library Consortium in balmy Maine

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] How to exclude the field 041 value from search by language

[Cerninakova Eva]

Thanks a lot both of you ;-)

I was thinking the same way Jane, so I have at least put a link to a
pre-arranged search for English and German titles using a query with
-item_lang (cze) to our catalog homepage. I hope this  can partly help our
students to solve the problem.


I have also tried to delete the 041 field and its subfield from Record
Attribute Definition on our test server today, similarly as it is suggested
in the documentation Andrea have sent. However, the search result haven't
changed, see
http://aron.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?bool=and=keyword=contains=item_lang%28eng%29=and=title=contains==and=author=contains=&_adv=1_record_view=0=1=is===
I wonder whether it is necessary to do anything else?

Thanks

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] How to exclude the field 041 value from search by language

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

I would like to ask whether there is a possibility to exclude the value of
the field 041 when searching by language in the Evergreen catalog (and
search only by the value specified in the 008 field).

Our students often need literature in German or in English for their
language lessons. In our previous Evergreen versions they used to search
English or German materials using language filter in the OPAC. Our
consortium have upgraded to Evergreen 3.1 this summer. Version 3.1 allows
combining the searched languages by extracting values from both the 008
control field and the 041 data field. Unfortunately, this excellent new
ability has unexpected consequences for searching in our catalog. When
search query is filtered for example by English language of the item, most
search results are  in Czech nevertheless. The reason is quite simple: most
scholarly materials contain resume in English or German (or both), and
information about language of an existing resume is usually specified in
the field 041 $b of the bib record. This means, the filtering by language
is useles for our users at the moment ;-( .

Example of the search query  filtered by English language of the item:
https://knihovna.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?bool=and=title=contains==and=author=contains=&_adv=1_record_view=0%3Aitem_lang=eng=102=is===
Example of the search qurey filtered by German language of the item:
https://knihovna.jabok.cuni.cz/eg/opac/results?bool=and=keyword=contains==and=title=contains==and=author=contains=&_adv=1_record_view=0%3Aitem_lang=ger=102=is===

Is there some setting available, that would exclude the values specified in
field 041 from the search result when searching by language of the item?

Thanks in advance for any hint.
Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen 3.3 Release Update

[Cerninakova Eva]

 Hi Daniel,

Considering the last year discussion about integrating Angular 6 template
translations into the Evergreen translation tools, I would like to ask a
question about translation workflow of Evergreen 3.3 release. Will it
change some way in comparison with previous releases, due the impossibility
to use Launchpad for translations of Angular strings? And if so, how the
Angular strings are supposed to be translated during the 3.3 release
process? (I am asking from translators point of view.)

Thanks for the answer ;-)

Does anyone know if there's a way to add translations for the values

Hi,

thanks a lot for the hint. The fm_IDL.xml files seem to be the right track:
Both files are really different - however, I don't' think the differences
are related to localization (in a fact, I don't see any signs of
localization).

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Problem loading report inteface

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

I wonted to test some  localization bugs and problems  related to reports
using our  Evergreen test server environment (3.3.0, Czech localization).
However, I came across a problem, that the web client report interface can
be loaded only partially (see the attachment) and templates search and
folder links don't work at all (in production environment using Evergreen
3.1.4 the report interface is loaded normally  - there are, however, other
problems that I just wanted to test).
I compared the report interface with Blake's sandbox - everything works
fine there.

I'm not sure if it's a localization problem or if it can be caused by some
specific settings.

Don't you have an experience with similar behavior of reporter interface
(or idea, what could cause the problem)?

Thank you in advance for any hint.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 3.3.3 staff client receipt printing & defaults

Hi Josh,

it is possible to set global print templates using modified templates in
/openils/var/templates/staff/share/print_templates/ as you suggest. We use
Evergreen 3.2 currently and this setting works fine  for us. It is also
possible to set multiple "global" templates based on the location using
templates  overriding.


Hope this helps

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Organizational unit address in receipt templates

[Cerninakova Eva]

 Hi,

I am trying to set up web staff client print templates for our consortium
(in Evergreen 3.3.2).  We would like to use the same print templates for
the whole consortium and avoid the necessity to save the templates locally.
We need include  "current" library address (i.e., address of the library,
where the receipt is printed)  in some receipt. However, I have not found
and opportunity to add the library addres data to receipt templates. It is
only possible to add library code and name.
In the XUL client, we used the opportunity to set up the receipts header
and footer for the particular library in the Library Setting Editor. The
setting is present in the web client too, but I suppose  it is obsolete and
don't work with the angular print templates. (Or I am wrong?)

Ideally we need to add at least the organizational unit physical (or
mailing) address street1, city, zip code, phone number and SAN  to the
following templates:

   - Bills, Current (t_bills_current.tt2
   

   )
   - Bills, Historical  (t_bills_historical.tt2
   

   )
   - Bills, Payment (t_bill_payment.tt2
   

   )
   - Patron data (t_patron_data.tt2
   
)
   - (some of our libraries would like to use this print output for  the
   "official" patron-library contract, so they need not only the library
   name, but also the address)

Is there presently an option to insert automatically the current library
address into the print outputs listed above?

Thanks a lot for any help

Eva

Hi Garry,

thanks for the tip - I think HTML formating will be very useful in some 
templates ;-).



Thank you everyone for the help.

Hi Eva,

If you need to be able to use html, you could just add some logic to the 
templates with the address information.  Of course the number of locations 
that you have may render this solution impractical.


{{current_location.name}}

22 Main Street
Big City, TX


22 Oak Street
Little City, TX

Subject: Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Organizational unit address in receipttemplates

I filed a bug a while back regarding the HTML-less nature of these library 
settings in the web client. It can be found here: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1801143


This is also almost possible in the print templates themselves, but I don't 
think all the necessary fields are exposed currently. For example,
{{current_location.billing_address}} gets me the ID associated with the 
workstation library's billing address. However, if I try things like 
{{current_location.billing_address.street1}} or 
{{current_location.billing_address.city}}, it does not work. I tested in 
the Bills, Current template, so I can't say this will be true for all 
templates.


The library's name can be displayed with {{current_location.name}}.

Hi Eva - you can still use the library settings to add standard text 
blocks. I have instructions in the PINES docs here:

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Heads up for Angular translators

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Bill,

I have two questions about Angular translations

1) Would it be possible to provide some feedback like comments or
explanation to strings containing variables or part of code (preferably
right in Poeditor) which part of the string to translate and which not. It
seems obvious , that the parts in quotation marks should not be translated,
but in some cases I guess it applies not only to the parts enclosed in
quotation marks.
E. g. in the string:
*Error generating print content for template name="{{**name}}{{name}}" / id="{{**id}}{{id}}" *
I suppose the
*name=*
is part of the code too and only the
*Error generating print content for template*
should be translated (but I would like to be sure about it ;-) )

By the way, I would really appreciate having some information about the
context of the string (e.g. translation of the „order“ might be different
depending on whether it is used in the acquisition or for hold management).
In Launchpad, the context may be partly derived from the template in which
the string is located, but such a possibility is not available in Poeditor.

2) The second question is more about the Peoditor function or interface
As a "contributor" (which is the standard translator's role  in the
Poediotr) I don't have an opportunity to copy the English string to
translation field by one click (as it is possible in Launchpad). Such a
feature is widely used and is quite useful, especially in cases when string
contains white spaces, variables etc. It is cumbersome to  copy and paste
the original string to the translation field, because a lot of unwanted
characters or white spaces or parts of the interface  are copied to the
translation field with the string.
In the  POEditor Knowledge base  I have found the following information :
*Contributors do not have access to the Copy Terms to Translations feature,
but they can ask the project owner or an administrator to do this *(see the
https://poeditor.com/kb/how-to-copy-strings-to-empty-translation-boxes)
Would it be possible to have copied the original string to translation
field if the string contains variables or part of the code?

Thanks
Eva

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Heads up for Angular translators

[Cerninakova Eva]

 Thanks a lot for the information about strings translation and about the
hover context information (I examined the POEditor interface and functions
quite thoroughly, but this one I have missed). However, and any hints and
additional information or explanation in a future will always be welcomed
;-)

However, I have one more question:
In POEditor, I miss the suggestions function based on previously translated
terms. Such a function is available in Launchpad and it is quite useful and
helps a lot to limit duplication and inconsistencies. There is a similar
function “Translation memory suggestions” in POEditor, see
https://poeditor.com/help/how_to_use_translation_memory. However, this
function is not available by default. Is there a chance to make this
function available for the Evergreen Project?

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Heads up for Angular translators

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi,

I need another explanation ;-)

Which parts of the following string should be translated? Should they be
the  parts I have  highlighted?

{{type === 'billing_address' ? 'Physical
Address' : (type === 'holds_address' ? 'Holds Address' : (type ===
'mailing_address' ? 'Mailing Address' : 'ILL Address'))}}{{type ===
'billing_address' ? 'Physical Address' : (type === 'holds_address' ? 'Holds
Address' : (type === 'mailing_address' ? 'Mailing Address' : 'ILL
Address'))}}


Thanks a lot.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Self Registration

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi Elizabeth,

If the workstation is a regular PC it is possible to add the registration
page to the browser bookmarks and copy the registration page  bookmark to
the PC desktop as a desktop icon that users can click.
I guess this is  not exactly what you need, however,  it might be at least
possible to use it as a kind of  work around.
