so far so good, just setting up a new koha test server |
| 00:04 |
|
chris |
with qemu |
| 00:05 |
|
brendan |
I haven't used qemu |
| 00:05 |
|
brendan |
googling it now |
| 00:06 |
|
chris |
its pretty nifty, runs totally in userspace |
| 00:06 |
|
chris |
so requires no kernel mods, like vservers or xen |
| 00:07 |
|
brendan |

I'm setting up a Koha server for a client, and don't know much about the library information databases it interacts with |
| 03:07 |
|
bignose-work |
how do I decide between the database types; I think UniMARC and MARC21 |
| 03:13 |
|
chris |
is it for an australian library? if so chances are its MARC21 .. but you probably should check with the library |
| 03:13 |
|
chris |
its a datastorage/cataloguing format |
| 03:15 |
|
bignose-work |
thanks, that gives me a bit more to go from. |
| 03:15 |
|
bignose-work |
(am I correct that the options are UniMARC or MARC21?) |
| 03:20 |
|
chris |
yep |

hi hdl |

|
Hui_Nan_ |
hello all! |
| 09:46 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
has anyone an experience of creating a bibliographic database with koha? |
| 09:47 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
bibliographic database contains biblios for articles in journals, chapters in the books etc |
| 09:48 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
the main question is about journals - one does not want to enter the description of a journal for each article |
| 09:56 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Hui_Nan_: unimarc_field_4XX is used for that purpose |
| 09:57 |
|
hdl_laptop |
(link bibliographic records for multiple levels.) |
| 09:57 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
ok, I'm studiyng the corresponding plugin |
| 09:57 |
|
hdl_laptop |
But it relies on UNIMARC 4XX linking fields |
| 09:57 |
|
hdl_laptop |
translates 200$a into 4xx$t for instance |
| 09:58 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
ok, I have an idea about unimarc |
| 09:58 |
|
hdl_laptop |
hope that helps |
| 09:59 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
what I'd like to implement - is a kind of simple search, which searches for any resource be it a web page or a book |
| 10:00 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
however I need some means to slice this general searching space |
| 10:00 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
maybe an additional accesspoint will help |
| 10:00 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
well there's a lit to learn about koha, that's why I'm asking about expirience |
| 10:01 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
s/a lit/a lot/ |
| 10:02 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Hui_Nan_: unimarc_field_4xx is then the perfect match for you. |
| 10:02 |
|
hdl_laptop |
it implements a basic search with restrictions to itemtypes |
| 10:02 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Then you can select and add to your field |
| 10:24 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
another challenge is the restriction of access |
| 10:25 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
the access level determined by IP and/or login/password must limit the items available in the search |
| 10:25 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
say, anonimous can't see some biblios which VIP can see |
| 10:26 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
may these access levels be implemented as branches? |
| 10:26 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
or there is another way? |
| 11:23 |
|

good morning |
| 11:24 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
evening ;-) |
| 11:25 |
|
gmcharlt |
:) |
| 11:27 |
|
Amit |
hi gmcharlt |
| 11:50 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Hui_Nan_: I would say branch limits seems a good solution |
| 11:52 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
well, the restrictions are very alike to circulation limitations |
| 11:52 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
so the use of branches seems to be quite logical |
| 11:52 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
good |
| 11:57 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
however there's a difference |
| 11:58 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
access level: display_item() if $access_level > $x; |
| 11:58 |
|
Hui_Nan_ |
branch: display_item() if $branch = $x; |
