| 03:53 | wajasu | i got my holdings in my 952 fields. got multiple items added to each marc record for my bulk import. |
| 03:53 | now i wonder what the standard is for setting copy number. | |
| 03:53 | do i put a $t1 in my 952 for the first item? | |
| 03:54 | do i start my second item withh $t2 or $t1? | |
| 03:55 | i'm thinking that setting $t for the first item is superfluous, and maybe industry practice starts with 1 for the second item. | |
| 03:55 | joetho joined #koha | |
| 03:56 | wajasu | any cataloguers who would know? |
| 04:03 | another question. if my marc record has n items, does koha maintain the 008/17-19 accordinlgy? | |

| 14:51 | jwagner | Can someone confirm my theory? In the OPAC title display, in the item holdings list, if something shows in the URL column, it's deriving that from biblioitems.url? |
| 14:57 | Looking at the code, I guess not -- seems to be coming from the item data, the URI field. | |

| 15:34 | wajasu | i have a cataloguer question. about whether a second copy of a book should have a holdings entry of 952$t2 or $t1? |
| 15:34 | gmcharlt | wajasu: $t2 is customary |
| 15:34 | only libraries run by programmers call the first copy number 0 ;) | |
| 15:35 | wajasu | so i should i put $t1 in the first book's 952 then as well? |
| 15:35 | SJeffery | Is anyone aware of any archives using Koha other than the Hawaii state archives? I am curious how it ends up looking when you have the multi-level description common to archives. |
| 15:35 | gmcharlt | optional to do that, but a good idea |
| 15:35 | wajasu | it'll look better on the display |
| 15:36 | i printed a spline. it puts the copy on the bottom. is it customary to put c.1? just like volumes have v.1? is so would i just need to change my template? | |
| 15:37 | gmcharlt | yep, c.1 is customary, and you'd have to change your template |
| 15:38 | SJeffery | Customary but not all libraries print copy numbers, mine does not |
| 15:42 | wajasu | another question. if my marc record has n items, does koha maintain the 008/17-19 accordinlgy? should it? or should i in the program I wrote that transforms my legacy software to MARC21 records? |
| 15:42 | i.e. total copies? | |
| 15:45 | should multivolume books (i.e. v.1, v.2 on the end of callnumbers, end up as distinct biblios, or different items in the same biblio with the v.# in it's $o ? (is so, should 090ab not contain the v.# info)? | |
| 15:53 | SJeffery | (since nobody else is responding), the answer to your volume # question depends on local practice from my undrestanding |
| 15:59 | hdl_laptop | hi all |
| 15:59 | SJeffery | Mornin |
| 16:06 | So...anyone with any ideas about archives using Koha? | |
| 16:06 | jwagner | SJeffery, not sure what you mean by archives & needs. |
| 16:08 | brendan joined #koha | |
| 16:09 | johnindy joined #koha | |
| 16:09 | jdavidb | Howdy, Brendan! :) |
| 16:09 | brendan | morning jdavidb |
| 16:11 | SJeffery | Archives normally describe/catalog their records a tad differently than regular libraries. They might create a separate record for each box, each file, or each collection |
| 16:12 | I'm curious if anyone has done that from Koha. The only archives I have found using it is the Hawaii State Archives, and it does not look like they describe that way. | |
| 16:14 | cait | SJeffery: I think what you look for is linking between titles? we have that in our data, but its not visible yet |
| 16:14 | SJeffery: we need to change the xslt files - but I have had no time for this yet | |
| 16:15 | jdavidb | SJeffery: Koha is pretty solidly MARC-centric; MODS/METS records would be (at the least) very non-intuitive to deal with; not sure the editor could do much of anything with 'em, at this point. But you can hack up the MARC frameworks anyway you like, and use that, maybe. |
| 16:16 | * jdavidb | has a dream of a system that would allow definition, editing, import/export, indexing, and coherent display of *any* data structure expressable in XML, even totally-arbitrary ones. |
| 16:16 | SJeffery | My thought is to do something like create one record for each file folder, item, or box (depending on the circumstances) and link them via series entries. |
| 16:17 | brendan | it would be really interesting to adding some space in the database for storing the MODS... and then deal with the editor later |
| 16:17 | jwagner | Our nearest equivalent would be Mount Vernon/Gunston Hall -- go to http://mv.ptfsinc.com/ and do an advanced search on manuscripts. Anything remotely like what you're doing? They're doing it as item types & collection codes. The collection is still building, so there isn't much in the system yet. |
| 16:17 | cait | you can link titles with $0 subfields in MARC21 |
| 16:17 | gmcharlt | brendan: storing and indexing MODS is the *easy* part, relatively speaking |
| 16:17 | jwagner | In some cases they're using manuscript dates or maybe box number as the call number. |
| 16:17 | johnindy left #koha | |
| 16:18 | brendan | agreed gmcharlt |
| 16:18 | SJeffery | Right now I work for a company that has regular books in LC, a large collection of technical articles each with their own record using a proprietary call numbering system, and a large archives collection. Seems like shoehorning the archives into Koha is the best bet. |
| 16:19 | Describing at the collection level is very straightforward in MARC, it is the folder-level that is the nightmare I think. | |
| 16:20 | Not sure how to link each folder to the parent (collection) record though. | |
| 16:21 | gmcharlt | SJeffery: 773s and some hackery to mark a record as a 'folder' type |
| 16:23 | SJeffery | What would be involved in that? Thinking of bringing in someone else to manage that kind of change. |
| 16:26 | biglego left #koha | |

| 16:31 | (for http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]_bug.cgi?id=4239) | |
| 16:31 | munin | 04Bug 4239: enhancement, P5, ---, kohaprogrammersptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Allow holds on multiple items of selected titles |
| 16:31 | paul_p | exactly what we need for a customer !!! |
| 16:33 | SJeffery | gmcharlt: Any idea on the extent of modifications required? Would it be something to sponsor or a local-only thing? |
| 16:34 | francharb left #koha | |
| 16:35 | gmcharlt | SJeffery: some bits would definitely be of general interest - an easy mechanism to travel from bib to bib in the OPAC over 7xx links would be useful in a number of situations |
| 16:35 | that would be fairly easy and quick to do | |
| 16:36 | some UI work to make it easy to link records together in the cataloging editor would be good (so that catalogers don't have to try to remember record IDs when establishing links) as well | |
| 16:36 | but that woudl be secondary, depending on how involved you want to get | |
| 16:38 | sekjal | this sounds like the bib linker I've been thinking about |
| 16:38 | a method for linking any two bibliographic records with user-configurable relationships | |
| 16:39 | some of which would fit well into MARC 7XXs, but other FRBR relationships could be defined, as well | |
| 16:39 | corockliff joined #koha | |
| 16:39 | jwagner | paul_p, thanks. That one should be about ready to go -- do you need it in a hurry? |
| 16:39 | paul_p | jwagner: nope |
| 16:40 | jwagner | We're waddling, er, working as fast as we can on getting the code ready to release. |
| 16:40 | * jwagner | keeps getting deeper and deeper into the swamp :-( |
| 16:45 | jwagner | Does someone have an OPAC handy that's using Amazon content, specifically reviews? I'm trying to figure out if there's a problem with a site not getting any reviews, or just not getting very many & thus haven't found any yet. Would like to doublecheck some titles elsewhere. |
| 16:46 | cait | perhaps, let me check |
| 16:47 | seminar-stuttgart.bsz-bw.de | |
| 16:47 | jwagner: https://seminar-stuttgart.bsz-[…]iblionumber=10103 | |
| 16:49 | hm, its a library for teachers, so mostly German school books... which are probably not the titles you want to double check | |
| 16:49 | biglego joined #koha | |
| 16:50 | cait | :( |
| 16:50 | jwagner | cait, no I'm not finding any overlap on my sample titles. Anyone else? A U.S. public library, maybe? |
| 16:52 | collum left #koha | |
| 16:52 | schuster | I believe nekls is using Amazon. |
| 16:52 | cait | jwagner: I m at home (supposed to learn for my distance study), so no access to the staff interface to load one of your titles, perhaps somebody else can help |
| 16:54 | owen joined #koha | |
| 16:54 | wizzyrea_ | we are using amazon |
| 16:54 | jwagner | wizzyrea_, what's your OPAC URL? |
| 16:54 | wizzyrea_ | oh, but we don't have reviews yet |
| 16:54 | SJeffery | gmcharlt: So would the easiest thing to do be simply to include all work-work (bib-bib) relationships from FRBR over 7xx links? |
| 16:54 | wizzyrea_ | sorry still reading back |
| 16:54 | wizzyrea_ is now known as wizzyrea | |
| 16:55 | wizzyrea | catalog.nexpresslibrary.org |
| 16:55 | gmcharlt | SJeffery: bib-bib relationships, anyway - I'm not sure that bib-to-bib links is necessarily the ideal way to encoding all FRBR relationships |
| 16:55 | jwagner | wizzyrea, does reviews require extra config/syspref setup? |
| 16:56 | The reviews syspref is turned on. | |
| 16:56 | wizzyrea | yep, it requires amazon secret key, which we currently have no syspref to put our number for that in |
| 16:57 | (we are too far behind on our code) | |
| 16:57 | jwagner | Is that the AWSAccessKeyID? That's filled in on this system, but AmazonAssocTag is not. Dunno if that makes a difference |
| 16:57 | wizzyrea | (one of the things amazon changed a few months back was how that worked) |
| 16:57 | no, it's the AWSSecretKey or something | |
| 16:57 | sec, it's in 3.2 | |
| 16:58 | owen | As far as I know AmazonAssocTag is only required if you want a cut of Amazon sales done via your library's catalog links |
| 16:58 | Sharon left #koha | |
| 16:59 | jwagner | Aha. Looking at a 3.2 system, there's a new syspref named AWSPrivateKey. That's probably what's missing here. |
| 16:59 | wizzyrea | yep |
| 16:59 | Sharon joined #koha | |
| 17:05 | SJeffery | So what would go into getting someone to create the bib-bib links and integrating it into the codebase? Just contact say PTFS and see what they would charge? |
| 17:05 | wizzyrea | must be a bad bib on the keyword moon |
| 17:05 | lol mt | |
| 17:06 | jwagner | SJeffery, I'm sure we'd be willing to help :-) |
| 17:06 | brendan left #koha | |
| 17:07 | SJeffery | Now if only I could ever get someone from PTFS to actually answer their phones:) |
| 17:07 | jwagner | Hey! We answer lots of phones. Also emails! |
| 17:07 | gmcharlt | SJeffery: to say nothing of contacting other vendors and independent programmers for pricing as well ;) |
| 17:07 | * jwagner | wasn't going to mention that option :-) All's fair in love & development, right? |
| 17:08 | sekjal | SJeffery: one of the great things about an open source ILS: you get shop around for services |
| 17:09 | SJeffery | Yeah, it is (sorta) great. We were also looking for someone to migrate us from an opac called STAR, but nobody but us seems to have so much as heard of it:P |
| 17:09 | Perhaps I could just start a bidding war here:D | |
| 17:10 | jwagner | Can you get MARC records out of STAR? |
| 17:11 | SJeffery | Not from the public interface. The vendor provides zero documentation for the back-end that you have to telnet into. The only alternative we are aware of is to have the vendor upgrade us to the new version (at a price) that allows export, export it, then drop the product. |
| 17:12 | By public I mean the front end and the back end vs the super secret back end you telnet into. | |
| 17:12 | sekjal | SJeffery: sounds like a fun challenge |
| 17:13 | idea for koha-community.org: a way for folks to request quotes from registered support companies. Submit one form, get emails/calls from multiple companies | |
| 17:13 | SJeffery | I tihnk you forgot the "'s around the word fun. |
| 17:14 | wizzyrea | sekjal: a good idea, but I don't relish the idea of keeping that contact list up to date |
| 17:14 | you think there's controversy NOW around how vendors are handled on the site | |
| 17:14 | * wizzyrea | shudders |
| 17:15 | sekjal | wizzyrea: yeah, that would be difficult. there'd have to be a ton of metadata about the vendors, the services they offer, their geographic area of operation, etc. |
| 17:15 | but if we made it the responsibility of the companies to keep their info up to date, then it would be in their best interest to keep it accurate | |
| 17:15 | wizzyrea | most of which the solution I'm contemplating would handle. I think what I'd rather do is have each vendor link to their contact page |
| 17:17 | which leads us back to the place where "boy it would be nice to have an "idea bucket" where people put their ideas in and developers can pick up the ones they want to quote on" | |
| 17:17 | biglego left #koha | |
| 17:17 | wizzyrea | which I thought we were going to use bugzilla for |
| 17:17 | but can't seem to get any traction ther | |
| 17:17 | there | |
| 17:17 | sekjal | I think bugzilla is a) kind of intimidating for some and b) implies it only deals with 'bugs', not enhancement requests |
| 17:18 | gmcharlt | and nobody believes us developers when we say that a bug can be an enhancement request ;( |
| 17:18 | SJeffery | Bugzilla is the devil. I would take Mantis or something else any day of the week. |
| 17:18 | wizzyrea | I personally think that we should at the very least pretty up our bugzilla :P |
| 17:19 | gmcharlt | wizzyrea: will be easier to do that once Catalyst is ready to host it |
| 17:19 | * wizzyrea | would help out with that, once it's ready |
| 17:19 | SJeffery | That's like putting shiny red paint on a volkswagon and calling it a BMW. |
| 17:19 | wizzyrea | (I did say at the very least) |
| 17:19 | * wizzyrea | drives a volkswagen |
| 17:20 | brendan joined #koha | |
| 17:20 | wizzyrea | part of me says "just learn to use bugzilla" and the other part realizes it's incredibly intimidating for newcomers to the community/librarians |
| 17:21 | I do think the enhancements need to be split out. Maybe we can define a policy on suggesting great ideas, and make it formal on the website | |
| 17:22 | maybe even a *gasp* form to fill out | |
| 17:22 | owen | split them out so that people can browse them separately? |
| 17:22 | sekjal | wizzyrea: that would make it easier for folks to participate |
| 17:22 | SJeffery | That would be nice. |
| 17:22 | wizzyrea | can you have multiple bug input forms in bugzilla? |
| 17:22 | sekjal | but, of course, would require work (like everything) |
| 17:22 | wizzyrea | well yea |
| 17:23 | I like working on koha web stuff :P | |
| 17:23 | SJeffery | If we are going to sponsor some development it would be rather nice to be able to easily check that nobody else is already doing it or has similar ideas. |
| 17:23 | wizzyrea | heh |
| 17:23 | that is always the problem with koha | |
| 17:23 | sometimes the vendors don't want anyone else to know what they are working on | |
| 17:24 | SJeffery | Well if other people are interested in sponsoring relationship linking, seems like it might be a good idea to get together. *shrug* |
| 17:24 | wizzyrea | yeppers, definitely |
| 17:24 | SJeffery | But I have long since learned that logic and reason have no relationship with business. |
| 17:24 | wizzyrea | i'm not trying to be negative, I've been thinking about this problem since we started using koha 2 years ago |
| 17:24 | which tells you how far I've gotten with it, lol | |
| 17:25 | always end up running myself in a circle | |
| 17:25 | maybe I'll try running in a square next time | |
| 17:25 | sekjal | hexagon |
| 17:26 | wizzyrea | Okk tah don, as my son would say |

| 17:26 | * wizzyrea | giggles |
| 17:26 | gmcharlt | part of the equation is that somebody making a proposal does have to actual work - not necessarily to fight with Bugzilla or whatever software is being used, but to check for duplicates, finding collaborators or cosponsors if necessary, and so forth |
| 17:27 | wizzyrea | yea, I'll give an example |
| 17:27 | we wanted a "bib maintenance package" that included merging of bibs, bulk change/delete of items, and several other things | |
| 17:28 | gmcharlt | sure, sometimes a developer will pick up and implement a feature request just for fun, but if you want to ensure that it gets done on any particular schedule, elbow grease, persuasion, or money will help move it forward |
| 17:28 | wizzyrea | we got together with another system in our state to collab, but we didn't know that someone was already working on half of that problem |
| 17:29 | when we found out our duplicate effort, it was much harder to get momentum to push forth the rest of the package | |
| 17:29 | because suddenly the attitude was "well someone's probably already working on that" but we could never prove it | |
| 17:29 | so it kind of languished. | |
| 17:30 | (that, and other issues I can't talk about) | |

| 17:32 | cait | :) |
| 17:33 | wizzyrea | I think you should probably be more concerned about my paint covered feelers all over your stuff |

| 18:28 | owen and anyone else -- got a request from a client to add a search by shelving location to the OPAC advanced search page (similar to the item type setup). Would that be of general use? | |
| 18:28 | i.e., should I plan on submitting it when done? | |
| 18:30 | gmcharlt | jwagner: I woudl think it would be of general interest |
| 18:33 | jwagner | OK, I'll see how it works out. |
| 18:37 | * owen | agrees |
| 18:37 | owen | ...even though we don't use shelving location. |
| 18:38 | * owen | wishes we could |
| 18:38 | jwagner | I'm thinking maybe have it as one of the "more options" set |

Later on another cataloger will go over new records to make sure that all the data have been entered correctly and there are nothing missing. If the other cataloger changes anything in the record and save it, the content of the fields 700 get r | |
