| 20:56 | big news day today | |
| 00:03 | hi brendan and jo | |
| 00:03 | brendan | heya chris -- how goes your monday |
| 00:04 | I was just nodding off - to some baseball on in the background | |
| 00:04 | chris | heh |
| 00:04 | so far so good, just setting up a new koha test server | |
| 00:04 | with qemu | |
| 00:05 | brendan | I haven't used qemu |
| 00:05 | googling it now | |
| 00:06 | chris | its pretty nifty, runs totally in userspace |
| 00:06 | so requires no kernel mods, like vservers or xen | |
| 00:07 | brendan | sweet |
| 00:09 | chris | and you are already in the history docs :) |
| 00:09 | or should be at least | |
| 00:10 | ill fix it if not | |
| 00:11 | you should be just before jane actually, 2 secs ill fix it up | |
| 00:12 | you are actually the 81st | |
| 00:13 | brendan | heh -- no worries -- |
| 00:14 | chris | patch on its way |
| 00:20 | Brendan A. Gallagher narrowly beats Jane to become the 81st committer :) | |
| 00:20 | brendan | heh -- |
| 00:21 | ok I guess I'm done ha-ha ;) | |
| 00:21 | chris | heh |
| 03:07 | bignose-work | 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 | 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 | its a datastorage/cataloguing format | |
| 03:15 | bignose-work | thanks, that gives me a bit more to go from. |
| 03:15 | (am I correct that the options are UniMARC or MARC21?) | |
| 03:20 | chris | yep |

| 06:59 | chris | evening |
| 07:02 | nicomo | evening chris |
| 07:07 | chris | back from your conference? |
| 07:14 | nahuel | hi chris ! |
| 07:14 | :) | |
| 07:15 | chris | hi nahuel :) |
| 07:16 | nahuel | what's up ? |
| 07:16 | what about the jetlag? :) | |
| 07:17 | chris | all back on nz time now |
| 07:17 | so not waking up too early anymore | |
| 07:18 | nahuel | me too :) |
| 07:45 | Amit | hi nahuel |
| 07:45 | nahuel | hi Amit |
| 07:45 | Amit | so how is your weekend |
| 07:45 | nahuel | how was the koha workshop ? |
| 07:45 | fine :) | |
| 07:45 | Amit | workshop is fine in mumbai |
| 07:50 | hdl_laptop | good |
| 08:00 | Amit | hi hdl |
| 09:45 | Hui_Nan_ | hello all! |
| 09:46 | has anyone an experience of creating a bibliographic database with koha? | |
| 09:47 | bibliographic database contains biblios for articles in journals, chapters in the books etc | |
| 09:48 | 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 | (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 | 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 | however I need some means to slice this general searching space | |
| 10:00 | maybe an additional accesspoint will help | |
| 10:00 | well there's a lit to learn about koha, that's why I'm asking about expirience | |
| 10:01 | s/a lit/a lot/ | |
| 10:02 | hdl_laptop | Hui_Nan_: unimarc_field_4xx is then the perfect match for you. |
| 10:02 | it implements a basic search with restrictions to itemtypes | |
| 10:02 | Then you can select and add to your field | |
| 10:24 | Hui_Nan_ | another challenge is the restriction of access |
| 10:25 | the access level determined by IP and/or login/password must limit the items available in the search | |
| 10:25 | say, anonimous can't see some biblios which VIP can see | |
| 10:26 | may these access levels be implemented as branches? | |
| 10:26 | or there is another way? | |
| 11:23 | gmcharlt | 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 | so the use of branches seems to be quite logical | |
| 11:52 | good | |
| 11:57 | however there's a difference | |
| 11:58 | access level: display_item() if $access_level > $x; | |
| 11:58 | branch: display_item() if $branch = $x; |
