5 Global system preferences
6 =========================
8 Global system preferences control the way your Koha system works in
9 general. Set these preferences before anything else in Koha.
11 - *Get there:* More > Administration > Global System Preferences
15 System preferences can be searched (using any part of the preference
16 name or description) using the search box on the 'Administration' page
17 or the search box at the top of each system preferences page.
21 When editing preferences a ^(modified)^ tag will appear next to items
22 you change until you click the 'Save All' button:
26 After saving your preferences you'll get a confirmation message telling
27 you what preferences were saved:
31 Each section of preferences can be sorted alphabetically by clicking the
32 small down arrow to the right of the word 'Preference' in the header
37 If the preference refers to monetary values (like
38 :ref:`maxoutstanding`) the currency displayed will be the
39 default you set in your :ref:`Currencies and Exchange Rates`
40 administration area. In the examples to
41 follow they will all read USD for U.S. Dollars.
45 For libraries systems with unique URLs for each site the system
46 preference can be overridden by editing your koha-http.conf file
47 this has to be done by a system administrator or someone with access
48 to your system files. For example if all libraries but one want to
49 have search terms highlighted in results you set the
50 OpacHighlightedWords preference to 'Highlight' then edit the
51 koha-http.conf for the library that wants this turned off by adding
52 'SetEnv OVERRIDE\_SYSPREF\_OpacHighlightedWords "0"'. After
53 restarting the web server that one library will no longer see
54 highlighted terms. Consult with your system administrator for more

88 to reduce the owed amounts in a patron's account.
90 .. _finepaymentautopopup-label:
93 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
95 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically display a print dialog for a payment receipt when
108 - If activated, when :ref:`making a payment <pay/reverse-fines-label> in a
109 patron's account, a printing popup will be displayed automatically instead
110 of having to click on the 'print' button.
112 .. _usecashregisters-label:
115 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
117 Asks: \_\_\_ cash registers with the accounting system to track payments.
129 - This preference enables the :ref:`cash registers <cashregisters-label>`
130 feature in the administration module.

140 .. _acquisitions-policy-label:
143 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
145 .. _acqcreateitem-label:
148 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
150 Default: placing an order
152 Asks: Create an item when \_\_\_.
156 - cataloging a record
164 - This preference lets you decide when you'd like to create an item
165 record in Koha. If you choose to add an item record when 'placing an
166 order' then you will enter item information in as you place records
167 in your basket. If you choose to add the item when 'receiving an
168 order' you will be asked for item record information when you're
169 receiving orders in acquisitions. If you choose to add the item when
170 'cataloging a record' then item records will not be created in
171 acquisitions at all, you will need to go to the cataloging module to
174 .. _acqenablefiles-label:
177 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
181 Asks: \_\_\_ enable the ability to upload and attach arbitrary files to
192 - This preference controls whether or not you allow the uploading of
193 invoice files via the acquisitions module.

198 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
200 Asks: Upon cancelling a receipt, update the item's subfields if they
201 were created when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="bar foo""). \_\_\_
205 - This preference is used in conjunction with the
206 :ref:`AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived`
207 preference. If you have the system set to enter default values when
208 you receive you will want to have those values revert back if reeipt
209 is cancelled. This preference allows you to do that.
211 .. _acqitemsetsubfieldswhenreceived-label:
213 AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived
214 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
216 Asks: Upon receiving items, update their subfields if they were created
217 when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="foo bar"). \_\_\_
221 - This preference allows you to set default values for items that you
222 receive via acquisitions. Enter the data as subfield=value and split
223 your values with a bar ( \| ). For example you can remove the Ordered
224 status on the item automatically when you receive it just by entering
225 7=0 in this preference. That will set the Not for Loan status
226 (subfield 7) to 0 which is available.
228 .. _acqviewbaskets-label:
231 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
233 Default: created by staff member
235 Asks: Show baskets \_\_\_
239 - created by staff member
241 - from staff member's branch
243 - in system, regardless of owner
247 - When in acquisitions this preference allows you to control whose
248 baskets you can see when looking at a vendor. The default value of
249 'created by staff member' makes it so that you only see the baskets
250 you created. Choosing to see baskets 'from staff member's branch'
251 will show you the baskets created by anyone at the branch you're
252 logged in at. Finally, you can choose to set this preference to show
253 you all baskets regardless of who created it ('in system, regardless
254 of owner). Regardless of which value you choose for this preference,
255 superlibrarians can see all baskets created in the system.

301 Asks: \_\_\_ blind copy (BCC) to logged in user when sending serial or
302 acquisitions claims notices.
312 - When filing a claim in the :ref:`Claim Late Serials` or
313 Acquisitions module this preference will allow for
314 the sending of a copy of the email to the librarian.
316 .. _currencyformat-label:
319 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
321 Default: 360,000.00 (US)
323 Asks: Display currencies using the following format \_\_\_
338 Asks: The default tax rate is \_\_\_
342 - This preference will allow the library to define a default Goods and
343 Services Tax rate. The default of value of 0 will disable this
348 Enter this value as a number (.06) versus a percent (6%).
350 .. _marcfieldstoorder-label:
353 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
355 Asks: Set the mapping values for a new order line created from a MARC
356 record in a staged file.
360 - This preference includes MARC fields to check for order information
361 to use when you are trying to :ref:`Order from a staged file` in
362 acquisitions. You can use the following fields: price, quantity,
363 budget\_code, discount, sort1, sort2.
373 .. _marcitemfieldstoorder-label:
375 MarcItemFieldsToOrder
376 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
378 Asks: Set the mapping values for new item records created from a MARC record
383 - This preference automatically generates items in Koha with populated
384 information based on a 9XX field and subfield. You can use the following
385 fields: homebranch, holdingbranch, itype, nonpublic_note, public_note, loc,
386 ccode, notforloan, uri, copyno, price, replacementprice and itemcallnumber.
387 Special fields: quantity and budget_code
398 .. _purgesuggestionsolderthan-label:
400 PurgeSuggestionsOlderThan
401 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
403 Asks: Keep accepted or rejected purchase suggestions for a period of \_\_\_ days.
407 WARNING - Leave this field empty if you don't want to activate this automatic feature.
411 - Enter the number of days after which you want to automatically
412 delete accepted or rejected purchase suggestions.
414 - For example: [30] Sets purgation of suggestions for those older than 30 days.
418 This system preference is used when the cronjob purge_suggestions.pl is
419 active and called without a specific number of days.
421 .. _uniqueitemfields-label:
424 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
428 Asks:\_\_\_ (space-separated list of fields that should be unique for
429 items, must be valid SQL fields of
430 `items <http://schema.koha-community.org/master/tables/items.html>`__ table)
434 - If this preference is left blank when adding items in acquisitions
435 there will be no check for uniqueness. This means that a duplicate
436 barcode can be created in acquisitions which will cause errors later
437 when checking items in and out.
439 .. _useacqframeworkforbibliorecords-label:
441 UseACQFrameworkForBiblioRecords
442 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
446 Asks: \_\_\_ the framework 'ACQ' for bibliographic records fields

499 Asks: \_\_\_ CAS for login authentication.
504 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
506 Asks: Logout of CAS when logging out of Koha: \_\_\_
518 - CAS single logout means that a user gets logged out not only from the CAS
519 server but also from all visited CAS client applications when logged out
520 in one of them or after reaching a timeout.
524 The CAS server has to be set up to allow single logout for this to take
525 effect, otherwise the behavior will remain unchanged
527 .. _casserverurl-label:

592 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
594 Asks: Google OAuth2 Client Secret \_\_\_
596 .. _googleopenidconnect-label:
599 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
603 Asks: Use Google OpenID Connect login: \_\_\_
607 You will need to select OAuth2 when creating an app in the google
608 cloud console, and set the web origin to your\_opac\_url and the

668 These preference are related to your Koha interface
670 .. _debuglevel-label:
673 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
677 Asks: Show \_\_\_ debugging information in the browser when an internal
682 - lots of - will show as much information as possible
684 - no - will only show basic error messages
686 - some - will show only some of the information available
690 - This preference determines how much information will be sent to the
691 user's screen when the system encounters an error. The most detail
692 will be sent when the value level is set at 2, some detail will be
693 sent when the value is set at 1, and only a basic error message will
694 display when the value is set at 0. This setting is especially
695 important when a system is new and the administration is interested
696 in working out the bugs (errors or problems) quickly. Having detailed
697 error messages makes quick fixes more likely in problem areas.
699 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarycircrules-label:
701 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryCircRules
702 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
704 Default: all libraries
706 Asks: When editing circulation rules show \_\_\_ the rules by default.
712 - logged in library's
716 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
717 found at the top of the :ref:`Circulation and fines rules`.
719 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarynoticesslips-label:
721 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryNoticesSlips
722 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
724 Default: all libraries
726 Asks: When editing notices and slips show the \_\_\_ notices and slips
733 - logged in library's
737 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
738 found at the top of the :ref:`Notices & slips` tool.
740 .. _defaulttologgedinlibraryoverduetriggers-label:
742 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryOverdueTriggers
743 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
745 Default: all libraries
747 Asks: When editing overdue notice/status triggers show the \_\_\_ rules
754 - logged in library's
758 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
759 found at the top of the :ref:`Overdue Notice/Status Triggers`.
764 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
768 Asks: Separate columns in an exported report file with \_\_\_ by
787 - This preference determines how reports exported from Koha will
788 separate data. In many cases you will be able to change this option
789 when exporting if you'd like.
791 .. _kohaadminemailaddress-label:
793 KohaAdminEmailAddress
794 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
796 This is the default 'From' address for emails unless there is one for
797 the particular branch, and is referred to when an internal error occurs.
799 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address for the administrator of Koha.
803 - This preference allows one email address to be used in warning
804 messages set to the OPAC. If no email address is set for the branch
805 this address will receive messages from patrons regarding
806 modification requests, purchase suggestions, and questions or
807 information regarding overdue notices. It is recommended that a email
808 address that can be accessed by multiple staff members be used for
809 this purpose so that if one librarian is out the others can address
810 these requests. This email address can be changed when needed.
812 .. _noitemtypeimages-label:
815 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
819 Asks: \_\_\_ itemtype icons in the catalog.
829 - This preference allows the system administrator to determine if users
830 will be able to set and see an item type icon in
831 the catalog on both the OPAC and the Staff Client. The images will
832 display in both the OPAC and the Staff Client/Intranet. If images of
833 item types are disabled, text labels for item types will still appear
834 in the OPAC and Staff Client.
836 .. _replytodefault-label:
839 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
841 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address that will be set as the replyto in
846 - By default replies to notice emails will go to the `library email
847 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
848 email address for all replies to notices you can do that here.
850 .. _returnpathdefault-label:
853 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
855 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address set as the return path, if you
856 leave this empty the KohaAdminEmailAddress will be used.
860 - The return path is the email address that bounces will be delivered
861 to. By default bounced notices will go to the `library email
862 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
863 email address for bounces to go to then fill in this preference.
865 .. _sendallemailsto-label:
868 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
870 Asks: Email to redirect all messages to: \_\_\_ (Leave this field empty to
871 send messages to their normal recipient)
875 - This system preference is used to override any patron email address with this one
876 when sending notices. This is meant to be used in a testing environment to
877 test notices and to avoid spamming patrons.
881 This is not to be used in a production environment. Otherwise, no patron
882 will receive their intended notices.
884 .. _virtualshelves-label:
887 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
891 Asks: \_\_\_ staff and patrons to create and view saved lists of books.
901 - This preference controls whether the lists functionality will be
902 available in the staff client and OPAC. If this is set to "Don't
903 allow" then no one will be able to save items to public or private
906 .. _login-options-label:
909 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
911 These preferences are related to logging into your Koha system
913 .. _autolocation-label:
916 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
918 Default: Don't require
920 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to log in from a computer in the IP address range
921 specified by their library (if any).
923 - Set IP address range in the library administration area
925 - *Get there:* More > Administration > Basic Parameters > :ref:`Libraries <libraries-label>`
935 - This preference protects the system by blocking unauthorized users
936 from accessing the staff client program and settings. Authorized and
937 unauthorized users are determined by their computer's IP addresses.
938 When the preference is set to 'Require', IP authorization is in
939 effect and unauthorized IP addresses will be blocked. This means that
940 staff cannot work from home unless their IP address has been
941 authorized. When set to 'Don't require', anyone with a staff client
942 login will have access no matter which IP address they are using.
944 .. _independentbranches-label:
947 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
949 Default: Don't prevent
951 Asks: \_\_\_ staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects
952 (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries.
962 - This preference should only be used by library systems which are
963 sharing a single Koha installation among multiple branches but are
964 considered independent organizations, meaning they do not share
965 material or patrons with other branches and do not plan to change
966 that in the future. If set to 'Prevent' it increases the security
967 between library branches by: prohibiting staff users from logging
968 into another branch from within the staff client, filtering out
969 patrons from patron searches who are not a part of the login branch
970 conducting the search, limiting the location choices to the login
971 branch when adding or modifying an item record, preventing users from
972 other branch locations from placing holds or checking out materials
973 from library branches other than their own, and preventing staff from
974 editing item records which belong to other library branches. All of
975 these security safeguards can be overridden only by the
976 superlibrarian, the highest level of privileges.
980 It is important that this value be set before going live and that it
983 .. _independentbranchespatronmodifications-label:
985 IndependentBranchesPatronModifications
986 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
990 Asks: Prevent staff (but not superlibrarians) from viewing and
991 approving/denying patron modification requests for patrons
992 belonging to other libraries. \_\_\_
1000 .. _sessionrestrictionbyip-label:
1002 SessionRestrictionByIP
1003 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1007 Asks: \_\_\_ check for change in remote IP address for session security.
1008 Disable only when remote IP address changes frequently.
1018 - When this preference is set to 'Enable' Koha will log you out of the
1019 staff client if your IP address changes as a security measure. For
1020 some systems the IP address changes frequently so you'll want to set
1021 this preference to 'Disable' to prevent Koha from logging you out of
1022 the staff client every time that happens.
1026 This is meant to help those whose IP address changes several times
1027 during the day, setting this preference to 'Disable' is not
1028 recommended otherwise because it is removing important security
1029 features from your staff client.
1031 .. _sessionstorage-label:
1034 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1036 Default: in the MySQL database
1038 Asks: Store login session information \_\_\_
1042 - as temporary files
1044 - in the MySQL database
1046 - in the PostgreSQL database
1050 PostgreSQL is not yet supported
1054 - This preference allows administrators to choose what format session
1055 data is stored in during web sessions.
1060 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1064 Asks: Automatically log out users after \_\_\_ seconds of inactivity.
1068 - This preference sets the length of time the Staff Client or OPAC
1069 accounts can be left inactive before re-logging in is necessary. The
1070 value of this preference is in seconds. At this time, the amount of
1071 time before a session times out must be the same for both the Staff
1072 Client and the OPAC.

1119 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1121 As an open source project Koha is used all over the world. These
1122 preference will help us keep more accurate statistics on where Koha is
1123 being used. If you choose to share your information, it will be
1124 published on the `Hea Koha community
1125 website <http://hea.koha-community.org>`__. You will need to enable the
1126 :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob to send this information at regular
1127 intervals to the community.

1134 Default: Don't share
1136 Asks: \_\_\_ anonymous Koha usage data with the Koha community.
1146 - This data is stored to help track usage of Koha around the world. If
1147 you choose to share your information, it will be published on the
1148 `Hea Koha community website <http://hea.koha-community.org>`__. This
1149 information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob.

1156 Asks: The country where your library is located: \_\_\_
1160 - This data is stored to help track usage of Koha around the world. If
1161 you choose to share your information, it will be published on the
1162 `Hea Koha community website <http://hea.koha-community.org>`__. This
1163 information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob.
1167 This preference depends on the `UsageStats <#usagestats>`__
1168 preference. Set that to 'Share' to share your information.

1296 .. _authdisplayhierarchy-label:
1298 AuthDisplayHierarchy
1299 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1301 Default: Don't display
1303 Asks: \_\_\_ broader term/narrower term hierarchies when viewing
1316 - If your authority records includes 5xx fields with linked references
1317 to broader and/or narrower see also references this preference will
1318 turn on a display of those authorities at the top of the record.
1320 .. _authoritycontrolledindicators-label:
1322 AuthorityControlledIndicators
1323 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1325 Asks: Use the following text to edit how authority records control indicators
1326 of attached biblio fields (and possibly subfield $2). Lines starting with a
1327 comment symbol (#) are skipped. Each line should be of the form: (marc21|unimarc),
1328 tag, ind1:(auth1|auth2|some_value), ind2:(auth1|auth2|thesaurus|some_value).
1329 Here auth1 and auth2 refer to the indicators of the authority record, tag is a
1330 biblio field number or an asterisk (*), and some_value is a fixed value
1331 (one character). The MARC21 option thesaurus refers to indicators controlled by
1332 authority field 008/11 and 040$f.
1336 - Used when merging authorities.
1338 - Controls how the indicators of linked authority records affect the
1339 corresponding biblio indicators. Currently, the default value is fine-tuned
1340 for MARC21 and copies the authority indicators for UNIMARC.
1342 - For example, a MARC21 field 100 in a biblio record should pick its first
1343 indicator from the linked authority record. The second indicator is not
1344 controlled by the authority. This report supports such MARC conventions.
1346 .. _authoritymergelimit-label:
1349 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1353 Asks: When modifying an authority record, do not update attached biblio
1354 records if the number exceeds \_\_\_ records. (Above this limit, the merge_authority
1355 cron job will merge them.)
1357 .. _authoritymergemode-label:
1360 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1364 Asks: When updating biblio records from an attached authority record ("merging"),
1365 handle subfields of relevant biblio record fields in \_\_\_ mode. In strict mode
1366 subfields that are not found in the authority record, are deleted. Loose mode
1367 will keep them. Loose mode is the historical behavior and still the default.
1375 .. _autocreateauthorities-label:
1377 AutoCreateAuthorities
1378 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1380 Default: do not generate
1382 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ authority records that are missing.
1392 `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ must be set to
1393 "allow" for this to have any effect
1397 - When this and `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ are
1398 both turned on, automatically create authority records for headings
1399 that don't have any authority link when cataloging. When
1400 BiblioAddsAuthorities is on and AutoCreateAuthorities is turned off,
1401 do not automatically generate authority records, but allow the user
1402 to enter headings that don't match an existing authority. When
1403 BiblioAddsAuthorities is off, this has no effect.
1405 .. _biblioaddsauthorities-label:
1407 BiblioAddsAuthorities
1408 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1412 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ them to automatically create new
1413 authority records if needed, rather than having to reference existing
1420 - This setting allows you to type values in the fields controlled by
1421 authorities and then adds a new authority if one does not exist
1425 - This setting will lock the authority controlled fields, forcing
1426 you to search for an authority versus allowing you to type the
1427 information in yourself.
1429 .. _marcauthoritycontrolfield008-label:
1431 MARCAuthorityControlField008
1432 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1434 Default: \|\| aca\|\|aabn \| a\|a d
1436 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of MARC21 authority
1437 control field 008 position 06-39 (fixed length data elements).
1441 Do not include the date (position 00-05) in this preference, Koha
1442 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1447 - This preference controls the default value in the 008 field on
1448 Authority records. It does not effect bibliographic records.
1450 .. _unimarcauthorityfield100-label:
1452 UNIMARCAuthorityField100
1453 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1455 Default: afrey50 ba0
1457 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of UNIMARC authority field
1458 100 position (fixed length data elements).
1462 Do not include the date (position 00-07) in this preference, Koha
1463 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1468 - This preference controls the default value in the 100 field on
1469 Authority records cataloged in UNIMARC. It does not effect
1470 bibliographic records.
1472 .. _useauthoritiesfortracings-label:
1474 UseAuthoritiesForTracings
1475 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1479 Asks: \_\_\_ authority record numbers instead of text strings for
1480 searches from subject tracings.
1486 - Search links look for subject/author keywords (example:
1487 opac-search.pl?q=su:Business%20networks)
1491 - Search links look for an authority record (example:
1492 opac-search.pl?q=an:354)
1496 - For libraries that have authority files, they may want to make it so
1497 that when a link to an authorized subject or author is clicked on the
1498 OPAC or staff client it takes the searcher only to a list of results
1499 with that authority record. Most libraries do not have complete
1500 authority files and so setting this preference to 'Don't use' will
1501 allow searchers to click on links to authors and subject headings and
1502 perform a keyword search against those fields, finding all possible
1503 relevant results instead.
1508 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1510 These preferences will control how Koha links bibliographic records to
1511 authority records. All bibliographic records added to Koha after these
1512 preferences are set will link automatically to authority records, for
1513 records added before these preferences are set there is a script
1514 (misc/link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl) that your system administrator can
1515 run to link records together.
1517 .. _catalogmodulerelink-label:
1520 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1524 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically relink headings that have previously been
1525 linked when saving records in the cataloging module.
1535 - Longtime users of Koha don't expect the authority and bib records to
1536 link consistently. This preference makes it possible to disable
1537 authority relinking in the cataloging module only (i.e. relinking is
1538 still possible if link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl is run). Note that
1539 though the default behavior matches the previous behavior of Koha
1540 (retaining links to outdated authority records), it does not match
1541 the intended behavior (updating biblio/authority link after
1542 bibliographic record is edited). Libraries that want the intended
1543 behavior of authority control rather than the way Koha used to handle
1544 linking should set CatalogModuleRelink to 'Do'. Once setting this to
1545 'Do' the following preferences can also be set.
1547 .. _linkerkeepstale-label:
1550 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1554 Asks: \_\_\_ keep existing links to authority records for headings where
1555 the linker is unable to find a match.
1565 - When set to 'Do', the linker will never remove a link to an authority
1566 record, though, depending on the value of
1567 :ref:`LinkerRelink`, it may change the link.
1569 .. _linkermodule-label:
1572 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1576 Asks: Use the \_\_\_ linker module for matching headings to authority
1583 - Retains Koha's previous behavior of only creating links when there
1584 is an exact match to one and only one authority record; if the
1585 :ref:`LinkerOptions` preference is set to
1586 'broader\_headings', it will try to link headings to authority
1587 records for broader headings by removing subfields from the end of
1592 - Creates a link to the first authority record that matches a given
1593 heading, even if there is more than one authority record that
1598 - Creates a link to the last authority record that matches a given
1599 heading, even if there is more than one record that matches
1603 - This preference tells Koha which match to use when searching for
1604 authority matches when saving a record.
1606 .. _linkeroptions-label:
1609 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1611 Asks: Set the following options for the authority linker \_\_\_
1615 This feature is experimental and shouldn't be used in a production
1616 environment until further expanded upon.
1620 - This is a pipe separated (\|) list of options. At the moment, the
1621 only option available is "broader\_headings." With this option set to
1622 "broader\_headings", the linker will try to match the following
1627 =600 10$aCamins-Esakov, Jared$xCoin collections$vCatalogs$vEarly works to 1800.
1629 First: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs--Early works
1632 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs
1634 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections
1636 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared (matches! if a previous attempt had
1637 matched, it would not have tried this)
1639 .. _linkerrelink-label:
1642 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1646 Asks: \_\_\_ relink headings that have previously been linked to
1657 - When set to 'Do', the linker will confirm the links for headings that
1658 have previously been linked to an authority record when it runs,
1659 correcting any incorrect links it may find. When set to 'Do not', any
1660 heading with an existing link will be ignored, even if the existing
1661 link is invalid or incorrect.

1676 .. _acquisitiondetails-label:
1679 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1683 Asks: \_\_\_ acquisition details on the biblio detail page.
1693 - This preference controls whether a tab will show on the detail page
1694 in the staff client that includes detailed acquisitions information
1695 for the title. This tab will include links to order information
1696 stored in the acquisitions module.
1700 .. _authorityseparator-label:

1717 Asks: \_\_\_ MARC tag numbers, subfield codes and indicators in MARC
1722 - Display -- shows the tag numbers on the cataloging interface
1726 - Don't display -- shows just descriptive text when cataloging
1730 .. _intranetbibliodefaultview-label:

1741 - ISBD form -- displays records in the staff client in the old card
1744 - See :ref:`ISBD` preference for more information
1746 - Labelled MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC
1747 with text labels to explain the different fields
1749 - MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC
1751 - normal form -- visual display in the staff client (for the average
1756 - This setting determines the bibliographic record display when
1757 searching the catalog on the staff client. This setting does not
1758 affect the display in the OPAC which is changed using the
1759 :ref:`BiblioDefaultView` preference under the OPAC
1760 preference tab. This setting changes the look of the record when
1761 first displayed. The MARC and ISBD views can still be seen by
1762 clicking in the sidebar.
1767 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1769 Default: See `ISBD view configuration
1770 <https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ISBD_view_configuration>` on the wiki.
1772 Asks: Use the following as the ISBD template:
1776 - This determines how the ISBD information will display in the staff
1777 client. Elements in the list can be reordered to produce a different
1778 ISBD view. ISBD, the International Standard Bibliographic
1779 Description, was first introduced by IFLA (International Federation
1780 of Library Associations) in 1969 in order to provide guidelines for
1781 descriptive cataloging. The purpose of ISBD is to aid the
1782 international exchange of bibliographic records for a variety of
1785 .. _labelmarcview-label:
1788 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1792 Asks: \_\_\_ collapse repeated tags of the same type into one tag entry.
1796 - Do -- will combine all identical tag numbers under one heading in the
1797 MARC view in the OPAC and Staff Client
1801 - Don't -- will list all of the tags individually in the MARC view in
1802 the OPAC and Staff Client
1806 .. _marcfielddocurl-label:
1809 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1813 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the URL for MARC field documentation. Possible substitutions are {MARC} (marc flavour, eg. "MARC21" or "UNIMARC"), {FIELD} (field number, eg. "000" or "048"), {LANG} (user language, eg. "en" or "fi-FI"). If left empty, the format documentation on http://loc.gov (MARC21) or http://archive.ifla.org (UNIMARC) is used. For example http://fielddoc.example.com/?marc={MARC}&field={FIELD}&language={LANG}
1817 - This preference lets you choose the source of the MARC documentation available through the "?" next to MARC fields.
1819 .. _mergereportfields-label:
1822 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1824 Asks: \_\_\_ fields to display for deleted records after merge
1828 - When merging records together you can receive a report of the merge
1829 process once it's done, this preference lets you set the default
1830 values for this report.
1832 Example: '001,245ab,600' displays:
1836 - subfields a and b of fields 245
1838 - all subfields of fields 600
1840 .. _notesblacklist-label:
1843 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1845 Asks: Don't show these \_\_\_ note fields in title notes separator (OPAC
1846 record details) and in the description separator (Staff client record
1851 - This preference lets you define which of your note fields are hidden
1852 from the title notes (OPAC) and descriptions (Staff) tabs. Enter the
1853 values as a comma separated list. For example to hide the local note
1854 and the bibliography note in MARC21 enter 504, 590.
1856 .. _opacsuppression-preferences-label:
1858 OpacSuppression, OpacSuppressionByIPRange, OpacSuppressionRedirect, and OpacSuppressionMessage
1859 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1861 OpacSuppression Default: Don't hide
1863 Asks: \_\_\_ items marked as suppressed from OPAC search results.
1864 Restrict the suppression to IP addressesoutside of the IP range \_\_\_
1865 (Leave blank if not used. Define a range like 192.168..) Redirect the opac detail
1866 page for suppressed records to \_\_\_ Display the following message on
1867 the redirect page for suppressed biblios \_\_\_.
1869 OpacSuppression Values:
1873 - Will show records in OPAC search results if they are marked
1878 - Will not show records in OPAC search results if they're marked as
1881 OpacSuppressionRedirect Values:
1883 - an explanatory page ('This record is blocked').
1885 - the 404 error page ('Not found').
1889 - These preferences control hiding of bibliographic records from
1890 display in the OPAC. Each bibliographic record you want to hide from
1891 the OPAC simply needs to have the value "1" in the field mapped with
1892 Suppress index (942$n field in MARC21, no official field in UNIMARC).
1893 The indexer then hides it from display in OPAC but will still display
1894 it in the Staff Client. If you want to further control suppression
1895 you can set an IP address range to still show suppressed items to.
1896 Define a range like 192.168.. If you don't want to limit suppression
1897 in this way, leave the IP field blank. You can also decide what the
1898 patrons will see in the OPAC when a title is suppressed by setting
1899 the OpacSuppressionRedirect and OpacSuppressionMessage preferences.
1900 You can either show the patron a 404 page if they try to see a
1901 suppressed record or you can create a custom page by entering the
1902 HTML in the OpacSuppressionMessage part of this preference.
1906 An :ref:`authorized value <authorized-values-label>` for the MARC21 942$n
1907 field (or the equivalent UNIMARC field) should be set to
1908 eliminate errors. One example would be to create an authorized
1909 value titled SUPPRESS with a value of 0 for don't suppress and 1
1914 If this preference is set to 'hide' and you have the 942n field set
1915 to 1, it will hide the entire bib record - not just an individual
1920 Suppressed records will show a note in the staff client indicating
1921 that they are suppressed from view in the OPAC.
1925 This note can be styled by using the
1926 :ref:`IntranetUserCSS` preference to stand out more

1934 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1936 SeparateHoldings default: Don't separate
1938 SeparateHoldingsBranch default: home library
1940 Asks: \_\_\_ items display into two tabs, where the first tab contains
1941 items whose \_\_\_ is the logged in user's library. The second tab will
1942 contain all other items.
1944 SeparateHoldings values:
1950 SeparateHoldingsBranch values:
1958 - This preference lets you decide if you would like to have the holding
1959 information on the bibliographic detail page in the staff client
1960 split in to multiple tabs. The default is to show all holdings on one
1965 .. _urllinktext-label:
1968 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1970 Default: Online Resource
1972 Asks: Show \_\_\_ as the text of links embedded in MARC records.
1976 - If the 856 field does not have a subfield 3 or y defined, the OPAC
1977 will say 'Click here to access online.^ If you would like the field
1978 to say something else enter that in this field.
1980 .. _usecontrolnumber-label:
1983 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1987 Asks: \_\_\_ record control number ($w subfields) and control number
1988 (001) for linking of bibliographic records.
1994 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
1995 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a title
2000 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
2001 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a
2002 control number (MARC field 001) search
2006 Unless you are going in and manually changing 773$w to match your
2007 rigorously-defined bibliographic relationships, you should set this
2008 preference to "Don't use" and instead set
2009 :ref:`EasyAnalyticalRecords` to "Display"
2013 - If you have a serial called "Journal of Interesting Things" which has
2014 a separate record from when it was called "Transactions of the
2015 Interesting Stuff Society," you could add linking fields to indicate
2016 the relationship between the two records. UseControlNumber allows you
2017 to use your local accession numbers for those links. In MARC21, the
2018 relevant sections of the two records might look like this:
2023 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society.
2024 =245 10$aTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.
2025 =785 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tJournal of Interesting Things.$w12346
2028 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society.
2029 =245 10$aJournal of Interesting Things.
2030 =780 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.$w12345
2032 With UseControlNumber set to 'Use', the 78x links will use the
2033 Control Numbers is subfield $w, instead of doing a title search on
2034 "Journal of Interesting Things" and "Transactions of the Interesting
2035 Stuff Society" respectively.

2109 Asks: When matching on ISBN with the record import tool, \_\_\_ attempt
2110 to match aggressively by trying all variations of the ISBNs in the
2111 imported record as a phrase in the ISBN fields of already cataloged
2122 - This preference allows you to choose to alter the ISBN matching rule
2123 used when staging records for import to be more aggressive. This
2124 means that all text will be stripped from the ISBN field so that a
2125 pure number match is possible. If this preference is set to "Don't"

2202 .. _easyanalyticalrecords-label:
2204 EasyAnalyticalRecords
2205 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2207 Default: Don't Display
2209 Asks: \_\_\_ easy ways to create analytical record relationships
2219 If you decide to use this feature you'll want to make sure that your
2220 :ref:`UseControlNumber` preference is set to "Don't
2221 use" or else the "Show analytics" links in the staff client and the
2222 OPAC will be broken.
2226 - An analytic entry in a catalog is one that describes a part of a
2227 larger work that is also described in the catalog. In bibliographic
2228 cataloging, analytic entries may be made for chapters in books or
2229 special issues of articles in periodicals. In archival cataloging,
2230 analytic entries may be made for series or items within a collection.
2231 This feature in Koha allows for an easy way of linking analytic
2232 entries to the host records, and this system preference adds several

2263 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2265 Asks: Display MARC subfield \_\_\_ as holdings information for records
2266 that do not have items, with the subfields separated by \_\_\_.
2270 - Sometimes libraries migrate to Koha with their holding info in the
2271 852 field (OCLC holdings information field) and choose not to
2272 transfer that information into the 952 (Koha holdings information
2273 field) because they don't plan on circulating those items. For those
2274 libraries or other libraries that have data in the 852 fields of
2275 their records that they want to display, these preferences let you
2276 choose to display holdings info from a field other than the 952
2277 field. The AlternateHoldingsField preference can contain multiple
2278 subfields to look in; for instance 852abhi would look in 852
2279 subfields a, b, h, and i.

2302 - generated in the form 1, 2, 3
2304 - incremental EAN-13 barcodes
2306 - not generated automatically
2310 - This setting is for libraries wishing to generate barcodes from
2311 within Koha (as opposed to scanning in pre-printed barcodes or
2312 manually assigning them). The default behavior makes it so that when
2313 you click in the barcode field (952$p in MARC21) it will populate
2314 with the automatic barcode you have chosen. If you would rather it
2315 only enter an automatic barcode when you click on the plugin (the ...
2316 to the right of the field) you can change the plugin used for that
2317 field in the framework. Set the plugin for 952$p (if using MARC21 or
2318 equivalent field mapped to items.barcode in your local MARC format)
2319 for your frameworks to barcode\_manual.pl instead of barcode.pl.

2388 issuing rules will be an attribute of the bibliographic record or the
2389 item record. Most libraries refer to the item record for item types.
2390 It also determines if the item type icon appears on the OPAC search
2391 results. If you have the preference set to 'biblio record' then Koha
2392 displays the item type icon on the search results to the left of the

2404 Asks: Map the MARC subfield to an item's callnumber.
2408 This can contain multiple subfields to look in; for instance 082ab
2409 would look in 082 subfields a and b.
2413 - This setting determines which MARC field will be used to determine
2414 the call number that will be entered into item records automatically
2415 (952$o). The value is set by providing the MARC field code (050, 082,
2416 090, 852 are all common in MARC21) and the subfield codes without the
2417 delimiters ($a, $b would be ab).

3138 Default: Don't allow
3140 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to check out an item with age restriction.
3154 - When the :ref:`AgeRestrictionMarker` preference
3155 is set, Koha will try to warn circulation librarians before checking
3156 out an item that might have an age restriction listed in the MARC
3157 record. This preference asks if you would like the staff to be able
3158 to still check out these items to patrons under the age limit.
3160 .. _allfinesneedoverride-label:
3162 AllFinesNeedOverride
3163 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3167 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override all fines, even fines less than
3168 :ref:`noissuescharge`.
3178 - This preference let's you decide if you want to always be warned that
3179 the patron has fines when checking out. If you have it set to
3180 'Require' then no matter how much money the patron owes a message
3181 will pop up warning you that the patron owes money.
3183 .. _allowfineoverride-label:
3186 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3188 Default: Don't allow
3190 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override and check out items to patrons
3191 who have more than :ref:`noissuescharge` in fines.
3201 - This preference lets you decide if you staff can check out to patrons
3202 who owe more money than you usually let them carry on their account.
3203 If set to 'Allow' staff will be warned that the patrons owes money,
3204 but it won't stop the staff from checking out to the patron.
3206 .. _allowitemsonholdcheckout-label:
3208 AllowItemsOnHoldCheckout
3209 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3211 Default: Don't allow
3213 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else. If allowed do
3214 not generate RESERVE\_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This allows self
3215 checkouts for those items.
3225 This system preference relates only to SIP based self checkout, not
3226 Koha's web based self checkout.
3230 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
3231 your external self check machine to check out a book to themselves
3232 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
3233 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
3234 else set this preference to "Don't allow."
3236 .. _allowitemsonholdcheckoutsco-label:
3238 AllowItemsOnHoldCheckoutSCO
3239 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3241 Default: Don't allow
3243 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else in the SCO module.
3244 If allowed do not generate RESERVE_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This
3245 allows self checkouts for those items.
3255 This system preference relates only to Koha's web based self checkout.
3259 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
3260 Koha's web based self checkout to check out a book to themselves
3261 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
3262 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
3263 else set this preference to "Don't allow".
3265 .. _allowmultipleissuesonabiblio-label:
3267 AllowMultipleIssuesOnABiblio
3268 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3272 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons to check out multiple items from the same record.
3282 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then patrons will be able to
3283 check out multiple copies of the same title at the same time. If it's
3284 set to "Don't allow" then patrons will only be allowed to check out
3285 one item attached to a record at a time. Regardless of the option
3286 chosen in this preference records with subscriptions attached will
3287 allow multiple check outs.
3291 This will only effect records without a subscription attached.
3293 .. _allownotforloanoverride-label:
3295 AllowNotForLoanOverride
3296 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3300 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items that are marked as
3311 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls the ability of
3312 staff (patrons will always be prevented from checking these items
3313 out) to check out items that are marked as "not for loan". Setting it
3314 to "Allow" would allow such items to be checked out, setting it to
3315 "Don't allow" would prevent this. This setting determines whether
3316 items meant to stay in the library, such as reference materials, and
3317 other library resources can be checked out by patrons.
3319 .. _allowrenewallimitoverride-label:
3321 AllowRenewalLimitOverride
3322 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3326 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override the renewal limit and renew a
3327 checkout when it would go over the renewal limit.
3337 - This preference is a binary setting which controls the ability of
3338 staff to override the limits placed on the number of times an item
3339 can be renewed. Setting it to "Allow" would allow such limits to be
3340 overridden, setting it to "Don't allow" would prevent this. This is a
3341 preference in which if it is set to "allow" it would allow the
3342 library staff to use their judgment for overriding the renew limit
3343 for special cases, setting it to "Don't allow" prevents an
3344 opportunity for abuse by the library staff.
3346 .. _allowrenewalonholdoverride-label:
3348 AllowRenewalOnHoldOverride
3349 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3351 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to renew items that are on hold by manually specifying a due date.
3353 Default: Don't allow
3363 - This preference enables items that are on hold to be renewed with a due date specified by the user.
3365 It can appear in two locations:
3367 1. In the "Checkouts" table on the Patron Details screen. It is possible to select on loan items that would otherwise fulfil a hold request to be renewed. When such an item is selected, an additional date selection box is displayed to allow the user to specify the due date for all on hold items that are to be renewed.
3369 2. In the Circulation > Renew alert screen. When a barcode of an on loan item that would ordinarily fulfil a hold request is entered, the usual alert is displayed indicating that the item is on hold, it is still possible to override this, and renew. With this preference enabled it is also possible to specify a due date.
3371 .. _allowreturntobranch-label:
3374 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3376 Default: to any library
3378 Asks: Allow materials to be returned to \_\_\_
3382 - either the library the item is from or the library it was checked out
3385 - only the library the item is from.
3387 - only the library the item was checked out from.
3393 - This preference lets the library system decide how they will accept
3394 returns. Some systems allow for items to be returned to any library
3395 in the system (the default value of this preference) others want to
3396 limit item returns to only specific branches. This preference will
3397 allow you to limit item returns (checkins) to the branch(es) set in
3400 .. _allowtoomanyoverride-label:
3402 AllowTooManyOverride
3403 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3407 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items when the patron has
3408 reached the maximum number of allowed checkouts.
3422 - If this preference is set to "Allow" then staff all will be presented
3423 with an option to checkout more items to a patron than are normally
3424 allowed in the :ref:`Circulation and fines rules`. If
3425 this preference is set to "Don't allow" then no staff member will be
3426 able to check out more than the circulation limit.
3428 .. _automaticitemreturn-label:
3431 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3435 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically transfer items to their home branch when they
3446 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether an item
3447 is returned to its home branch automatically or not. If set to
3448 "Don't", the staff member checking an item in at a location other
3449 than the item's home branch will be asked whether the item will
3450 remain at the non-home branch (in which case the new location will be
3451 marked as a holding location) or returned. Setting it to "Do" will
3452 ensure that items checked in at a branch other than their home branch
3453 will be sent to that home branch.
3455 .. _autoremoveoverduesrestrictions-label:
3457 AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions
3458 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3462 Asks: \_\_\_ allow OVERDUES restrictions triggered by sent notices to be
3463 cleared automatically when all overdue items are returned by a patron.
3473 - Using the :ref:`Overdue Notice/Status Triggers` you
3474 can restrict patrons after they receive an overdue notice. This
3475 preference lets you define whether Koha will automatically remove
3476 that restriction once the overdue items in question are returned or
3479 .. _autoreturncheckedoutitems-label:
3481 AutoReturnCheckedOutItems
3482 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3484 Asks: \_\_\_ require librarians to manually confirm a checkout where the item
3485 is already checked out to another patron.
3497 - This preference controls whether Koha asks for a confirmation when trying
3498 to check out an item that is already checked out to another patron.
3500 - Set to 'Do', Koha will ask the staff member to confirm the check out.
3504 - Set to 'Don't', Koha will simply return the item from the previous
3505 patron's file and check it out to the actual patron and show a message.
3509 .. _circcontrol-label:
3512 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3514 Default: the library the item is from
3516 Asks: Use the checkout and fines rules of \_\_\_
3520 - the library the item is from
3522 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>`
3523 will be determined by the item's library where :ref:`HomeOrHoldingBranch`
3524 chooses if item's home library is used or holding library is used.
3526 - the library the patron is from
3528 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>`
3529 will be determined the patron's home library
3531 - the library you are logged in at
3533 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` will be
3534 determined by the library that checked the item out to the patron
3536 .. _consideronsitecheckoutsasnormalcheckouts-label:
3538 ConsiderOnSiteCheckoutsAsNormalCheckouts
3539 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3543 Asks: \_\_\_ on-site checkouts as normal checkouts. If enabled, the
3544 number of checkouts allowed will be normal checkouts + on-site
3545 checkouts. If disabled, both values will be checked separately.
3555 - This preference allows you to decide if checkouts that are
3556 :ref:`OnSiteCheckouts` are counted toward the total
3557 checkouts a patron can have. You can also set your :ref:`circulation and
3558 fines rules <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` to allow only a certain number of
3559 normal and OnSite checkouts.

3566 Asks: Charge a lost item to the borrower's account when the LOST value
3567 of the item changes to \_\_\_
3571 - Leave this field empty if you don't want to charge the user for lost
3572 items. If you want the user to be charged enter the `LOST authorized
3573 value <#lost>`__ you are using in the
3574 :ref:`DefaultLongOverdueLostValue <defaultlongoverduelostvalue-and-defaultlongoverduedays-label>`
3575 preference. This preference is used when the :ref:`longoverdue cron
3576 job <cron-long-overdues-label>` is called without the --charge parameter.
3578 .. _defaultlongoverduelostvalue-and-defaultlongoverduedays-label:
3580 DefaultLongOverdueLostValue and DefaultLongOverdueDays
3581 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3583 Asks: By default, set the LOST value of an item to \_\_\_ when the item
3584 has been overdue for more than \_\_\_ days.
3588 - These preferences are used when the :ref:`longoverdue cron
3589 job <cron-long-overdues-label>` is called without the --lost parameter. It
3590 allows users to set the values of the :ref:`longoverdue
3591 cron <cron-long-overdues-label>` without having to edit the crontab.
3592 Setting the values to 1 and 30 for example will mark the item with
3593 the `LOST authorized value <#lost>`__ of 1 after the item is 30 days
3596 .. _holdsinnoissuescharge-label:
3598 HoldsInNoissuesCharge
3599 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3601 Default: Don't include
3603 Asks: \_\_\_ hold charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge.
3611 .. _homeorholdingbranch-label:
3614 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3616 Default: the library the item was checked out from
3618 Asks: Use the checkout and fines rules of \_\_\_
3622 - the library the item is from
3624 - This is equivalent to 'home library'
3626 - the library the item was checked out from
3628 - This is equivalent to 'holding library'
3632 - This preference does several things.
3634 - If :ref:`CircControl` is set to 'the library the item
3635 is from' then the :ref:`circulation and fines
3636 policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` will be determined by the item's
3637 library where HomeOrHoldingBranch chooses if item's home library
3638 is used or holding library is used.
3640 - If :ref:`IndependentBranches` is set to
3641 'Prevent' then the value of this preference is used in figuring
3642 out if the item can be checked out. If the item's home library
3643 does not match the logged in library, the item cannot be checked
3644 out unless you are a :ref:`superlibrarian <patron-permissions-defined-label>`.
3648 It is not recommend that this setting be changed after initial setup
3649 of Koha because it will change the behavior of items already checked
3652 .. _issuelostitem-label:
3655 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3657 Default: display a message
3659 Asks: When issuing an item that has been marked as lost, \_\_\_.
3669 - This option will just check the item out without notifying you
3670 that the item was marked lost.
3672 - require confirmation
3678 - This preference lets you define how library staff are notified that
3679 an item with a lost status is being checked out. This will help staff
3680 mark items as 'available' if you choose to 'display a message' or
3681 'require confirmation.^ If you choose to 'do nothing,^ there will be
3682 no notification that the item being checked out is marked as 'lost.^
3684 .. _issuinginprocess-label:
3687 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3689 Default: Don't prevent
3691 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons from checking out an item whose rental charge would
3692 take them over the limit.
3702 - This preference determines if a patron can check items out if there
3703 is an overdue fine on the account and any of the materials the patron
3704 wishes to check out will potentially tip the account balance over the
3705 maximum fines policy the library has in place.
3707 Example: Your library has a $5 limit set for 'fines' (ie, after
3708 incurring $5 in fines, a patron can no longer check out items). A patron
3709 comes to the desk with 5 items to check out (4 books and a video) The
3710 patron has $4 in charges already on their account. One of the videos has
3711 a rental charge of $1, therefore making the total fines on the patron's
3712 account suddenly $5 (the limit).
3714 .. _itemsdeniedrenewal-label:
3717 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3719 Asks: Define custom rules to deny specific items from renewal.
3723 - This preference allows you to specify items that should not be renewed
3724 either from the OPAC or staff client. You can enter any combination of
3725 fields (from the items table in the Koha database) followed by a colon
3726 then a space then a bracketed list of values separated by commas. e.g:
3730 ccode: [NEWFIC,NULL,DVD]
3733 - The word 'NULL' can be used to block renewal on undefined fields,
3734 while an empty string "" will block on an empty (but defined) field.
3738 If using automatic renewal notices your notice text should be updated to
3739 account for the new reason that renewals may be denied "item_denied_renewal".

3743 ManInvInNoissuesCharge
3744 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3748 Asks: \_\_\_ custom debit types when summing up charges for
3759 - This preference lets you decide if charges entered as manual invoices
3760 are included when calculating the
3761 :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set to 'Include' then
3762 Koha will include all manual invoices when deciding if the patron
3763 owes too much money to check anything else out of the library. If
3764 it's set to 'Don't include' then Koha will ignore all manual invoice
3765 charges when figuring out if the patron owes too much money to
3766 checkout additional materials.

3811 Asks: Prevent patrons from checking out books if they have more than
3812 \_\_\_ USD in fines.
3816 - This preference is the maximum amount of money owed to the library
3817 before the user is banned from borrowing more items. Using the
3818 :ref:`ManInvInNoissuesCharge` and
3819 :ref:`RentalsInNoissuesCharge` preferences
3820 you can control which types of charges are considered in this total.
3821 This also coincides with :ref:`maxoutstanding` that
3822 limits patrons from placing holds when the maximum amount is owed to

3884 Default: Don't enable
3886 Asks: \_\_\_ onsite checkout by default if last checkout was an onsite one.
3896 - This preference allows you specify that if a preceding checkout was an onsite
3897 checkout, then the 'On-site checkout' checkbox will be ticked
3898 ready for the next checkout.

3903 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3907 Asks: \_\_\_ the on-site checkouts feature.
3919 - This preference lets you check out items that are 'not for loan' to
3920 patrons. A checkbox is added to the checkout screen when this

4129 Asks: \_\_\_ rental charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge.
4139 - This preference lets you decide if rental charges are included when
4140 calculating the :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set
4141 to include then Koha will include all rental charges when deciding if
4142 the patron owes too much money to check anything else out of the
4143 library. If it's set to Don't include then Koha will ignore all

4226 transfer has not been received \_\_\_ days after it is sent.
4230 - The TransferMaxDaysWarning preference is set at a default number of
4231 days. This preference allows for a warning to appear after a set
4232 amount of time if an item being transferred between library branches
4233 has not been received. The warning will appear in the :ref:`Transfers to

4257 BranchTransferLimitsType Description:
4259 - This parameter is a binary setting which determines whether items are
4260 transferred according to item type or collection code. This value
4261 determines how the library manager is able to restrict what items can
4262 be transferred between the branches.

4275 - circulation rules only.
4277 - the calendar to push the due date to the next open day.
4279 - the calendar to skip all days the library is closed.
4283 - This preference controls how scheduled library closures affect the
4284 due date of a material. The 'the calendar to skip all days the
4285 library is closed' setting allows for a scheduled closure not to
4286 count as a day in the loan period, the 'circulation rules only'
4287 setting would not consider the scheduled closure at all, and 'the
4288 calendar to push the due date to the next open day' would only effect
4289 the due date if the day the item is due would fall specifically on
4294 - The library has put December 24th and 25th in as closures on the
4295 calendar. A book checked out by a patron has a due date of December
4296 25th according to the circulation and fine rules. If this preference
4297 is set to 'circulation rules only' then the item will remain due on
4298 the 25th. If the preference is set to 'the calendar to push the due
4299 date to the next open day' then the due date will be December 26th.
4300 If the preference is set to 'the calendar to skip all days the
4301 library is closed' then the due date will be pushed to the 27th of
4302 December to accommodate for the two closed days.
4304 The calendar is defined on a branch by branch basis. To learn more about
4305 the calendar, check out the :ref:`Calendar & Holidays <calendar-label>`

4315 Asks: \_\_\_ Transport Cost Matrix for calculating optimal holds filling
4326 - If the system is configured to use the :ref:`Transport cost
4327 matrix <transport-cost-matrix-label>` for filling holds, then when
4328 attempting to fill a hold, the system will search for the lowest cost
4329 branch, and attempt to fill the hold with an item from that branch
4330 first. Branches of equal cost will be selected from randomly. The
4331 branch or branches of the next highest cost shall be selected from
4332 only if all the branches in the previous group are unable to fill the

4384 - not including the days the library is closed
4388 - This preference will determine whether or not fines will be accrued
4389 during instances when the library is closed. Examples include
4390 holidays, library in-service days, etc. Choosing "not including the
4391 days the library is closed" setting will enable Koha to access its
4392 :ref:`Calendar` module and be considerate of dates when
4393 the library is closed. To make use of this setting the administrator
4394 must first access Koha's calendar and mark certain days as "holidays"

4408 Asks: \_\_\_ the grace period when calculating the fine for an overdue
4419 - This preference lets you control how Koha calculates fines when there
4420 is a grace period. If you choose to include the grace period when
4421 calculating fines then Koha will charge for the days in the grace
4422 period should the item be overdue more than those days. If you choose
4423 not to include the grace period then Koha will only charge for the
4424 days overdue after the grace period.

4516 Asks: \_\_\_ the replacement price when a patron loses an item.
4526 - This preference lets you tell Koha what to do with an item is marked
4527 lost. If you want Koha can 'Charge' the patron the replacement fee
4528 listed on the item they lost or it can do nothing in reference to the
4529 patron and just mark the item lost in the catalog.

4534 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4536 Default: Don't forgive
4538 Asks: \_\_\_ the fines on an item when it is lost.
4548 - This preference allows the library to decide if fines are charged in
4549 addition to the replacement fee when an item is marked as lost. If
4550 this preference is set to 'Forgive' then the patron won't be charged
4551 fines in addition to the replacement fee.

4591 AllowHoldPolicyOverride
4592 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4596 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override hold policies when placing holds.
4606 - This preference is a binary setting which controls whether or not the
4607 library staff can override the circulation and fines rules as they
4608 pertain to the placement of holds. Setting this value to "Don't
4609 allow" will prevent anyone from overriding, setting it to "Allow"
4610 will allow it. This setting is important because it determines how
4611 strict the libraries rules for placing holds are. If this is set to
4612 "Allow", exceptions can be made for patrons who are otherwise
4613 normally in good standing with the library, but there is opportunity
4614 for the staff to abuse this function. If it is set to "Don't allow",
4615 no abuse of the system is possible, but it makes the system entirely
4616 inflexible in respect to holds.
4618 .. _allowholdsondamageditems-label:
4620 AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems
4621 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4625 Asks: \_\_\_ hold requests to be placed on damaged items.
4635 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls whether or not hold
4636 requests can be placed on items that are marked as "damaged" (items
4637 are marked as damaged by editing subfield 4 on the item record).
4638 Setting this value to "Don't allow" will prevent anyone from placing
4639 a hold on such items, setting it to "Allow" will allow it. This
4640 preference is important because it determines whether or not a patron
4641 can place a request for an item that might be in the process of being
4642 repaired or not in good condition. The library may wish to set this
4643 to "Don't allow" if they were concerned about their patrons not
4644 receiving the item in a timely manner or at all (if it is determined
4645 that the item is beyond repair). Setting it to "Allow" would allow a
4646 patron to place a hold on an item and therefore receive it as soon as
4647 it becomes available.
4649 .. _allowholdsonpatronspossessions-label:
4651 AllowHoldsOnPatronsPossessions

4656 Asks: \_\_\_\_ a patron to place a hold on a record where the patron
4657 already has one or more items attached to that record checked out.
4667 - By setting to "Don't allow," you can prevent patrons from placing
4668 holds on items they already have out, thus preventing them from
4669 blocking anyone else from getting an item.

4694 Asks: \_\_\_ suspended holds to be automatically resumed by a set date.
4704 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then all suspended holds will be
4705 able to have a date at after which they automatically become
4706 unsuspended. If you have this preference set to 'Allow' you will also
4707 need the :ref:`Unsuspend Holds` cron job running.

4725 - Allow to mark items as lost
4727 - Allow to mark items as lost and notify the patron
4729 - Do not allow to mark items as lot

4744 Asks: \_\_\_ a user from one library to place a hold on an item from
4749 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether patrons
4750 can place holds on items from other branches. If the preference is
4751 set to "Allow" patrons can place such holds, if it is set to "Don't
4752 allow" they cannot. This is an important setting because it
4753 determines if users can use Koha to request items from another
4754 branch. If the library is sharing an installation of Koha with other
4755 independent libraries which do not wish to allow interlibrary
4756 borrowing it is recommended that this parameter be set to "Don't
4763 - Don't allow (with :ref:`IndependentBranches`)

4772 Asks: Confirm future hold requests (starting no later than \_\_\_ days
4773 from now) at checkin time.
4777 - When confirming a hold at checkin time, the number of days in this
4778 preference is taken into account when deciding which holds to show
4779 alerts for. This preference does not interfere with renewing,
4780 checking out or transferring a book.
4784 This number of days will be used too in calculating the default end
4785 date for the Holds to pull-report. But it does not interfere with
4786 issuing, renewing or transferring books.
4790 This preference is only looked at if you're allowing hold dates in

4863 Asks: \_\_\_ sending an email to the Koha administrator email address
4864 whenever a hold request is placed.
4874 - This preference enables Koha to email the library staff whenever a
4875 patron requests an item to be held. While this function will
4876 immediately alert the librarian to the patron's need, it is extremely
4877 impractical in most library settings. In most libraries the hold
4878 lists are monitored and maintained from a separate interface. That
4879 said, many libraries that allow on shelf holds prefer to have this
4880 preference turned on so that they are alerted to pull an item from

5248 on-shelf holds fulfillment process, you should list the the libraries
5249 that \*do\* participate in the process here by inputting all the
5250 participating library's branchcodes, separated by commas ( e.g.
5251 "MPL,CPL,SPL,BML" etc. ).
5253 By default, the holds queue will be generated such that the system
5254 will first attempt to hold fulfillment using items already at the
5255 pickup library if possible. If there are no items available at the
5256 pickup library to fill a hold, build\_holds\_queue.pl will then use
5257 the list of libraries defined in StaticHoldsQueueWeight. If
5258 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight is disabled ( which it is by default ), the
5259 script will assign fulfillment requests in the order the branches are
5260 placed in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight system preference.
5262 For example, if your system has three libraries, of varying sizes (
5263 small, medium and large ) and you want the burden of holds
5264 fulfillment to be on larger libraries before smaller libraries, you
5265 would want StaticHoldsQueueWeight to look something like
5268 If you want the burden of holds fulfillment to be spread out equally
5269 throughout your library system, simply enable
5270 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight. When this system preference is enabled,
5271 the order in which libraries will be requested to fulfill an on-shelf
5272 hold will be randomized each time the list is regenerated.
5276 The :ref:`Transport Cost Matrix <transport-cost-matrix-label>` takes
5277 precedence in controlling where holds are filled from, if the matrix
5278 is not used then Koha checks the StaticHoldsQueueWeight. To use the
5279 Transport Cost Matrix simply set your
5280 :ref:`UseTransportCostMatrix` preference to

5346 - When TransferWhenCancelAllWaitingHolds is set to "Don't transfer", no
5347 branch transfer records are created. Koha will not allow the holds to
5348 be transferred, because that would orphan the items at the library
5349 where the holds were awaiting pickup, without any further instruction
5350 to staff as to what items are at the library or where they need to
5351 go. When that system preference set to "Transfer", branch transfers
5352 are created, so the holds may be cancelled.

5451 preference does not affect the :ref:`Firefox
5452 plugin <firefox-plugin-label>` or the :ref:`desktop

5463 Asks: \_\_\_ the automatic redirection to another patron when a patron
5464 barcode is scanned instead of a book. This should not be enabled if you
5465 have overlapping patron and book barcodes.
5475 - Enabling this system preference allows staff to scan a patron barcode instead
5476 of an item barcode in the checkout box to switch patron records.
5478 .. _circautocompl-label:
5481 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
5485 Asks: \_\_\_ to automatically fill in the member when entering a patron
5486 search on the circulation screen.
5490 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether
5491 auto-completion of fields is enabled or disabled for the circulation
5492 input field. Setting it to "Try" would enable a staff member to begin
5493 typing a name or other value into the field and have a menu pop up
5494 with suggestions for completing it. Setting it to "Don't try" would
5495 disable this feature. This preference can make staff members' jobs
5496 easier or it could potentially slow down the page loading process.

5528 need for the librarian to click the print button to generate a
5529 checkout receipt for the patron they're checking out to. If the
5530 preference is set to clear the screen then "checking out" an empty

5612 - Koha's overdue report shows you all of the overdue items in your
5613 library system. If you have a large library system you'll want to set
5614 this preference to 'Require' to force those running the report to
5615 first limit the data generated to a branch, date range, patron
5616 category or other such filter. Requiring that the report be filtered
5617 before it's run prevents your staff from running a system heavy
5618 report and slowing down other operations in the system.

5631 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
5633 Default: Don't notify
5635 Asks: \_\_\_ librarians of overdue fines on the items they are checking
5646 - With this preference set to 'Notify' all books that have overdue
5647 fines owed on them will pop up a warning when checking them in. This
5648 warning will need to acknowledged before you can continue checking
5649 items in. With this preference set to 'Don't notify,^ you will still
5650 see fines owed on the patron record, you just won't have an
5651 additional notification at check in.

5678 Asks: \_\_\_ the automatic use of a keyword catalog search if the phrase
5679 entered as a barcode on the checkout page does not turn up any results
5680 during an item barcode search.
5692 - Sometimes libraries want to checkout using something other than the
5693 barcode. Enabling this preference will do a keyword search of Koha to
5694 find the item you're trying to check out. You can use the call
5695 number, barcode, part of the title or anything you'd enter in the
5696 keyword search when this preference is enabled and Koha will ask you
5697 which item you're trying to check out.
5701 While you're not searching by barcode a barcode is required on every

5780 Asks: \_\_\_ local use when an unissued item is checked in.
5790 - When this preference is set to "Don't record" you can record local
5791 use of items by checking items out to the statistical patron. With

5915 - Koha can track the number of times and item is checked out and store
5916 that on the item record in the database. This information is not
5917 stored by default. Setting this preference to 'Do' will tell Koha to
5918 track that info everytime the item is checked out in real time.

6402 for the title in question.. According to *Libraries Unlimited's
6403 Online Dictionary for Library and Information Science*
6404 (http://lu.com/odlis/), FRBRizing the catalog involves collating MARC
6405 records of similar materials. FRBRization brings together entities
6406 (sets of Works, Expressions, or Manifestations), rather than just
6407 sets of Items. It can aid patrons in selecting related items,
6408 expressions, and manifestations that will serve their needs. When it
6409 is set to "Show", the OPAC will query one or more ISBN web services
6410 for associated ISBNs and display an Editions tab on the details
6411 pages. Once this preference is enabled, the library must select one
6412 of the ISBN options (such as :ref:`ThingISBN`). This option is only for the OPAC - the
6413 :ref:`FRBRizeEditions` option must be turned "On" to
6414 have the Editions tab appear on the Staff Client.
6424 This preference pulls all editions of the same title available in your
6425 collection regardless of material type. Items will appear under an
6426 'Editions' tab on the detail page for the title in question.
6430 Requires that you turn on one or more of the ISBN services

6454 links on the library's website. More information about the Amazon
6455 Associates program is available at Amazon's Affiliate Program's
6456 website, https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/. Before a tag can be
6457 obtained, however, the library must first apply for an Amazon Web
6458 Services (AWS) account. Applications are free of charge and can be
6459 made at http://aws.amazon.com. Once an AWS account has been

11532 - This preference allows patrons to view what is located on the shelf
11533 near the item they looked up. The shelf browser option appears on the
11534 details page to the right of each items' call number. Clicking the
11535 'Browse Shelf' link allows for a virtual shelf browsing experience
11536 via the OPAC and lets patrons see other books that may relate to
11537 their search and items that sit on the shelf near the item they are

11794 be when you renew their card. Using the 'current date' will add the
11795 subscription period to today's date when calculating the new

14524 that there is no (zero) copyright. Anyone using Mana KB can copy, reuse
14525 and change (their copy of) your content. Read more on CC0 on the `Creative

14573 .. _oai-pmh-pref-label:
14576 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
14580 Asks: \_\_\_ Koha's OAI-PMH server.
14590 - Once enabled you can visit http://YOURKOHACATALOG/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl
14591 to see your file. For the Open Archives Initiative-Protocol for
14592 Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) there are two groups of 'participants':
14593 Data Providers and Service Providers. Data Providers (open archives,
14594 repositories) provide free access to metadata, and may, but do not
14595 necessarily, offer free access to full texts or other resources.
14596 OAI-PMH provides an easy to implement, low barrier solution for Data
14597 Providers. Service Providers use the OAI interfaces of the Data
14598 Providers to harvest and store metadata. Note that this means that
14599 there are no live search requests to the Data Providers; rather,
14600 services are based on the harvested data via OAI-PMH. Koha at present
14601 can only act as a Data Provider. It can not harvest from other
14602 repositories. The biggest stumbling block to having Koha harvest from
14603 other repositories is that MARC is the only metadata format that Koha
14604 indexes natively. Visit
14605 http://www.oaforum.org/tutorial/english/page3.htm for diagrams of how
