21:19 hdl             hi
21:19 chris           hi hdl
21:11 hdl             pianohacker: ?
20:58 chris           person
20:58 chris           you would have to return it, and issue it for each peron
20:58 chris           well you cant have it out simultaneously
20:56 JeremyLC        I don't mind having to check out the same item for each person who wants it, but will it violate some internal constraint?
20:54 chris           the way it works currently, you wouldnt be able to do that, you would have to do a bunch of checkouts
20:53 chris           ahh tricky
20:52 JeremyLC        we're a multimedia lab/library and we allow our patrons to share a single video.  Their time in the lab is tracked, so it is important that any persons watching get properly credited for their time
20:52 pianohacker     JeremyLC: Why do you ask?
20:51 chris           :)
20:51 chris           no
20:49 JeremyLC        maybe you could give me an answer?  Do you know if Koha will allow multiple patrons to check out the same item simultaneously?
20:48 pianohacker     very
20:48 JeremyLC        hmm...quiet group
20:28 pianohacker     paul, hdl or other francophone: Could someone please help me with an english->french syspref description translation?
20:16 JeremyLC        anyone around for a quick question?
20:13 nong            hi rhcl
20:13 nong            hi jeremy
20:12 nong            hi paul
20:12 nong            hi pau;
19:10 danny           i'm alive, how can I help maxx?
18:50 maxx            no one here alive?
18:46 maxx            Hi can anybody help me here?
15:44 brendan_        with zebra searching is there something I can enter in the OPAC that would return all of the results - in other search engines I was able to enter * and then I would get = displaying 1-20 of 767,232
15:37 owen            I wonder how multi-branch libraries use Serials. Do they define a separate subscription for each branch? Otherwise, how do you tell Koha that every week/month you get 7 copies of the same issue?
14:58 owen            Yeah, I thought I did that... I could be wrong though
14:57 nengard         owen  -search has to rebuild ... doesn't it
14:44 owen            Just added an authority record. Why can't I find it with a search?
14:08 nengard         hiya
14:07 shedges         hi nengard
14:07 nengard         huh - what? are we talking about the manual :) hehe - was off reading emails
14:06 owen            Thanks go to nengard for all the work she has put in on it
14:06 shedges         thanks, owen

14:05 paul_laptop     hi owen
14:04 shedges         Hi, owen
14:04 shedges         (actually, it's a LOT out of date)
14:03 shedges         WILLETS, it's a little out of date, but check http://www.kohadocs.org/usersguide/ch04s02.html
14:02 owen            Hi shedges , paul
14:02 shedges         so well
14:01 shedges         good to hear BibLibre is doing to well
14:01 shedges         thank goodness for open source!
14:01 shedges         so we're always trying to do more with less
14:00 paul_laptop     wow... that's really a lot !
14:00 shedges         14.7% cut in the last 9 months
14:00 shedges         we're dealing with budget cuts here
14:00 shedges         wow, congratulations!
14:00 paul_laptop     (in 1 year...)
13:59 paul_laptop     for me, what is new is that we are looking for 2 new persons to hire. That will make BibLibre be 9 persons !
13:59 paul_laptop     how are you ? what's new for you ?
13:59 shedges         hi, paul!
13:57 paul_laptop     hello shedges. Nice to see you here
13:56 shedges         http://www.kohadocs.org/
13:55 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ anyone know Where I can start? like a website or manual to kinda guide me through the process
13:55 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ thanks
13:55 shedges         The Koha Z39.50 search tool should be helpful
13:54 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ Great that would save me alot of work
13:54 danny           `WILLETS_PHOTO_: I've never really done cataloging, but from what I have seen you should be able to connect to certain databases like Library of Congress and it should be able to pull much of the marc info from those sources, I think, not 100% sure on that
13:44 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ yes is this possible or do i have to enter all the book information manually?
13:42 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ no not the book image but the book information like author name publish date etc...
13:42 rhcl            Ah, I read too quickly--you want to scan the Marc info into the computer. Disregard my comments.
13:41 rhcl            If you want to use digitized images, that is.
13:40 rhcl            You may want to look at Greenstone.  greenstone.org
13:39 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ We have tons of books and are thinking of building a library. Can we scan the books into the system or do we have to enter the book information manually by hand?
13:39 `WILLETS_PHOTO_ Good day Koha folks....I have a question
13:15 Amit            good evening koha
12:00 Amit            hi paul
