Re: [Koha] Spam from BestBookBuddies (OpenLX)

[Koha] Koha Savings

Greetings fellow Koha users!! In a constant effort to promote Koha within the library world I am always thinking of new ways to portray the benefits of switching to an open source solution such as Koha. Now more than ever libraries need a more reasonably priced alternative to what is out there

Re: [Koha] Koha Maps

Thank you Marshall, I agree with many of the points listed in this message. Chris, what is your biggest concern other than the fact that this data is not free to download? Marshall, would you be looking for some form of compensation for us to list this on the KC website? How can we reach a

Re: [Koha] Number of Koha Libraries in the World

Hi, I'd really like to see Hea improved, and link to that instead. It is our own, open, data. It is fully voluntary. We can make the registration process easier for libraries - possibly as part of the installer. It is too hidden now. An API to Hea that I could pull from to use the data on the

Re: [Koha] Number of Koha Libraries in the Word

Hi Everyone, I agree completely with Sebastian’s suggestion. I don’t see any reason to re-invent the wheel. Let’s link the page on the KC website to Marshall’s map. It is an already established site and is very easy to use and navigate. It is a win for the KC because we don’t need to re-do

[Koha] Koha Community Marketing Initiative

Greetings fellow Koha users! During the last general IRC meeting it was decided that it is time we got serious about marketing Koha globally as a community. There is still too much misunderstanding and fear based on misconceptions circulated by the larger proprietary ILS systems and it is time
