<h1>MARC tag structure administration</h1>
<p>Koha allows you to specify which MARC tags you want to use and which you want to ignore. When you downloaded and installed Koha, you also got the entire list of MARC21 tags and subfields in current use. Now you need to use the administration page to edit this list and tell Koha which tags you want to use and how you want to use them.</p>
<p>You can define as the marc tag structure for each biblio framework you have defined</p>

<h1>Authorised values management</h1>
<p>Koha allows you to restrict the values that catalogers can place in some MARC subfields to certain pre-defined "authorised" values. These authorised values are defined here.</p>
<li>HINT2 : in the MARC editor, the list is ordered by Text, NOT by value. So you can define a default value by putting a space before the value you want to see first. For example, if your list is related to language, you can set "ENG" as authorised value and " English" as text. The space will order "ENG" as first default value, and the space won't be shown (because HTML automatically discard useless spaces). Super hint : you can put a value 1st with N spaces, then another one 2nd with N-1 space,..., a value in Nth position with 1 space. Don't abuse of this feature, it's easier to find a value in an alphabetical order. It should be used only to have a default value</li>
</ul>
<p>Koha automatically sets up authorised value categories for your item types and branch codes, and you can link these authorised values to MARC subfields when you set up your MARC tag structure.</p>

In the biblio framework, the reported tag <b>MUST</b> contain a $9 subfield, activated in the tab where the tag is, and hidden (hidden maybe omitted, but the field has no reason to appear anywhere). The $9 subfield in the biblio will contain the Authority number (the internal Koha number)

<h1>Biblio framework</h1>
<p>biblio frameworks are used to catalogue your biblios.</p>
<p>Unlike Koha 2.0, in this version you can have more than 1 framework to catalogate differently various materials. You can, for example, define 1 framework for monographies, 1 framework for serials, 1 framework for URL...</p>
<p>Once a framework type is created, you can clic on "MARC structure" to define the exact MARC structure. The first time, Koha will ask you to select an existing framework to copy into the new one. Thus, you don't have to define all the MARC structure</p>

<h1>MARC Check</h1>
<p>Once you have completed the process of setting up your MARC tag structure (MarcTagstruct) and checked your MARC to Koha mapping (TransformKohaToMarcLinks), click on this link to activate a small program that checks for major errors in your MARC setup.</p>
<p>This MARC check does not guarantee that you will like the first results of your efforts to set up your MARC displays, etc. -- it simply checks for major errors. You will probably revise your MARC setup several times before you are completely pleased with it. Be sure to run checkmarc after every revision.</p>

<h1>Currencies administration</h1>
<p>Define the currencies you deal with here.</p>
<p>You should at least define your local currency here, giving it a name (like US DOLLAR or EURO) and setting the "rate" at 1. If you do business with vendors who charge in a different currency, enter a name for that currency (e.g. PESO) and set the approximate exchange rate compared to your currency. (Note: names are limited to 10 characters or less.) The exchange rate is used to calculate the remain balances in your materials budgets when you purchase materials using "normal" acquisitions.</p>

<h1>Issuing rules</h1>
<p>Issuing rules deals with 2 topics :</p>
<ul>
- <li>Issuing length and quantity : they say how many items and how long a borrower category can issue for an itemtype </li>
- <li>Overdue charges : they are based on the item type and borrower type. These charges are defined on this page.</li>
+ <li>Issuing length and quantity : they say how many items and how long a patron category can check out for an itemtype </li>
+ <li>Overdue charges : they are based on the item type and patron type. These charges are defined on this page.</li>
</ul>
-<p>Itemtypes and borrower categories must be defined before issuing rules are defined. Your defined items types and borrower categories are then displayed in a grid on this page.</p>
+<p>Itemtypes and patron categories must be defined before issuing rules are defined. Your defined items types and patron categories are then displayed in a grid on this page.</p>
<h2>Issuing length and quantity</h2>
-<p>Each box in the grid contains 2 numbers, separated by commas, defining how many days a given borrower type can issue how many material. For example : 21,5 means the borrower can issue up to 5 books for up to 21 days</p>
-<p>The <b>*</b> have a specific meaning. They mean "any". If you set 21,5 for itemtype=*, borrower category=student, branch=main, then a student can't issue more than 5 items of ANY item type. This "any" box is cumulative with other boxes. It means that 21,5 as itemtype=book, 14,2 as itemtype=CD and 30,6 as itemtype=* (with category=student) means a student can issue up to 5 books, up to 2 CD but a maximum of 6 items (books or CD). In this case the "30 days" in itemtype=* is discarded and the issuing length is calculated on the exact itemtype</p>
+<p>Each box in the grid contains 2 numbers, separated by commas, defining how many days a given patron type can check out how many material. For example : 21,5 means the patron can check out up to 5 books for up to 21 days</p>

In this case the "30 days" in itemtype=* is discarded and the issuing length is calculated on the exact itemtype</p>
<h2>Overdue charges</h2>
<p>Each box in the grid contains three numbers separated by commas, defining the fine, how many days overdue the item must be before the fine is assessed and a first notice prepared (the "grace period"), and how many days after that the fine is assessed again and a second notice sent. For example, if you charge adults 1 dollar (or euro, or whatever currency) for overdue videos after three days and add another dollar charge after another five days, put "1,3,5" in the box in the grid that aligns with "Adult" and "Video." If you charge adults 25 cents for overdue fiction books after a grace period of seven days and repeat the charge seven days later, then the entry in the corresponding box in the grid would be ".25,7,7". After the first and second notice are given, Koha prepares a "final notice" after the number of days set by the final number in the grid and sets the charge to the maximum, which is 5.</p>
<p>(Note : fines are calculated by the fines2.pl script, located in misc directory. Ask your system administrator to put this script in crontab, after midnight, to have fines calculated every night.)</p>

<h1>Koha 2 MARC links</h1>
<p>This page provides a simplified way to map your MARC tags and subfields to the non-MARC Koha database tables <b>for default biblio framework</b>. This can also be done while setting the MARC tag structure, but it is easier to see the relationship between the MARC database and the Koha database here.</p>
<p>This is a one-to-one mapping. In other words, a MARC tag/subfield can be mapped to one, and only one, Koha table.column.</p>
<p>MARC data that is not mapped to a Koha table does not disappear -- it is simply not available for display on circulation screens and on some search results screens.</p>

<h1>Printer Administration</h1>
<p>If you are going to be using a printer (or several printers) that are attached to your Koha server for producing statistical and operations reports, then you need to give each printer a name and tell Koha how to access it. You do this by telling Koha which print queue to use.</p>
<p>(In linux, each printer configuration in your printcap file defines a print queue. The default print queue is "lp," but if you use more than one printer you will have other queues, probably with names like "text" or "postscript." Tell Koha which printer queue(s) you want to use for printing reports directly from the server.)</p>
<p>Note that you can always print Koha screens directly to a printer attached to your workstation just by using your web browser's Print function.</p>

<h1>Stop word administration page</h1>
<p>Here you should list all of the words you wish Koha to ignore when performing catalog searches or building the keyword index.</p>
<p>Normally, you will not want Koha to save keyword references to articles like "The" and "A" and other very common words. Saving keyword references to these words does not help to limit a search and will make the keyword index very large and "cluttered" with words that are not really useful. The "stopwords" list defines these unnecessary words for your installation.</p>
<p>(Hint: If you are proficient at MySQL, it is often faster and easier to find an existing stopwords list, edit it, put it in the correct format, and use the MySQL "Load Data Infile" command to import the list into the stopwords table. Many academic libraries publish their stopwords list on the Internet, or you can ask other Koha libraries if they would share their stopword list.)</p>
