[Koha] Restarting Indexing -- Maybe Reindexing Altogether

Hi, all! My library's system has stopped indexing new records. Case in point: I added Starlog to our catalog, and five ours later, it still does not appear when searched. We've also added a few more authority headings, but several hours later, they too cannot be found. So is it possible t

Re: [Koha] Serials and Variable Frequencies

Hi Charles, Unless you want to create your entire backlog, you don't need to enter historical frequencies in the serials module. (Unless the three frequencies are concurrent since they don't have end dates?) Just enter the current frequency (monthly according to 310) and start from there. Yo

Re: [Koha] Serials and Variable Frequencies

Hi Charles First of all, I don't really have much to do with the serials module, so if someone with better knowledge is available then please ignore this. My understanding is that the recording of frequencies in the bibliographic record is intended for OPAC use, (so users can have some idea as

[Koha] Serials and Variable Frequencies

Hi, all! My library is beginning to implement the serials module, but we have a question. How does Koha handle serials with variable frequencies? Case in point: Starlog. According to WorldCat and the Library of Congress, Starlog had three frequencies during its run. To copy the 310 and 32

Re: [Koha] ISSUE with Umlaut

Re: [Koha] ISSUE with Umlaut

Dear Russel, sounds to me as if the character encoding does not match. Try to make sure that the data is stored in UTF-8 (Unicode) character encoding before importing. Excel uses ANSI by default, which usually messes up special characters. Hope that helps. Best Uwe Boettcher Germany - home o

[Koha] ISSUE with Umlaut

Dear Community I have a prepared data set in excel format (.xlsx), some of it contains umlaut (German texts) and click sounds symbols of African languages such as field 245, and 260. But whenever I import the file to MARC editor through the Delimited Text Translator, I lose all the umlaut and pu
