It appears im doomed to have learn about MARC, I already know more than is
strictly healthy.
And with the constant questions it appears i’ll have to learn more.
When will the madness end.
I want a weather station!!
Ive decided I’d quite like to get me one of these new fangled weather
station gizmos. What I’d do with it im not quite sure.
I was thinking to put it at the top of our hill but I’m fairly sure it would
get blown away in a short time.
Perhaps just at the front of the house.
Guards! Guards!
Im rereading this classic Terry Pratchett book again at the moment.
I think it’s one of the most rereadable novels I have ever read. I think it
and Interesting Times are my two favourite Pratchett books.
Non MARC simple Acquisitions
I get asked quite often how this works, so I put together a set of
screenshots I hope illustrates how this system should work using the default
templates.
Take a look and see what you think
Koha non-marc
acquisitions
CDK comes back to haunt me.
Web based circulation is proving to be too slow for NPL, so they are trying
out the curses based system.
Its been quite a while since I last looked at this, and its still spaghetti,
but its suprising how much I remember.
Koha 1.2.3 users everywhere
It seems a lot of people are still using koha 1.2.3 quite succesfully in
most cases. Ive spent the last few nights doing tweaks for Bernadette in
christchurch and Talia in Australia. Just to make adding serials a bit less
painful.
Seems to be all going well. It will be interesting to see if they upgrade
when 2.0 is released.
The M in MARC is for Mental
Ok, so i’ve been doing quite a bit of work with MARC stuff lately, and I
still hate it. Most of my work has been focused on the Breeding Farm
(reservior) and on Acquisitions.
This seems to do what its supposed to do just fine, but its just that
everytime I have to deal with MARC I just know that there has to be a better
way.
Maori TV coming to Saturn
In a bout of good sense not common to our friends at
telstraclearsatunparadisenetlink they have decided to carry the new Maori TV
station after all. Originally they had said they wouldnt until their new
digital service came into action. But now they say that from april 4th it
will be available on channel 33.
