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

68 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
70 .. _acqcreateitem-label:
73 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
75 Default: placing an order
77 Asks: Create an item when \_\_\_.
89 - This preference lets you decide when you'd like to create an item
90 record in Koha. If you choose to add an item record when 'placing an
91 order' then you will enter item information in as you place records
92 in your basket. If you choose to add the item when 'receiving an
93 order' you will be asked for item record information when you're
94 receiving orders in acquisitions. If you choose to add the item when
95 'cataloging a record' then item records will not be created in
96 acquisitions at all, you will need to go to the cataloging module to
99 .. _acqenablefiles-label:
102 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
106 Asks: \_\_\_ enable the ability to upload and attach arbitrary files to
117 - This preference controls whether or not you allow the uploading of
118 invoice files via the acquisitions module.
120 .. _acqitemsetsubfieldswhenreceiptiscancelled-label:
122 AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceiptIsCancelled
123 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
125 Asks: Upon cancelling a receipt, update the item's subfields if they
126 were created when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="bar foo""). \_\_\_
130 - This preference is used in conjunction with the
131 :ref:`AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived`
132 preference. If you have the system set to enter default values when
133 you receive you will want to have those values revert back if reeipt
134 is cancelled. This preference allows you to do that.
136 .. _acqitemsetsubfieldswhenreceived-label:
138 AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived
139 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
141 Asks: Upon receiving items, update their subfields if they were created
142 when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="foo bar"). \_\_\_
146 - This preference allows you to set default values for items that you
147 receive via acquisitions. Enter the data as subfield=value and split
148 your values with a bar ( \| ). For example you can remove the Ordered
149 status on the item automatically when you receive it just by entering
150 7=0 in this preference. That will set the Not for Loan status
151 (subfield 7) to 0 which is available.
153 .. _acqviewbaskets-label:
156 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
158 Default: created by staff member
160 Asks: Show baskets \_\_\_
164 - created by staff member
166 - from staff member's branch
168 - in system, regardless of owner
172 - When in acquisitions this preference allows you to control whose
173 baskets you can see when looking at a vendor. The default value of
174 'created by staff member' makes it so that you only see the baskets
175 you created. Choosing to see baskets 'from staff member's branch'
176 will show you the baskets created by anyone at the branch you're
177 logged in at. Finally, you can choose to set this preference to show
178 you all baskets regardless of who created it ('in system, regardless
179 of owner). Regardless of which value you choose for this preference,
180 superlibrarians can see all baskets created in the system.

226 Asks: \_\_\_ blind copy (BCC) to logged in user when sending serial or
227 acquisitions claims notices.
237 - When filing a claim in the :ref:`Claim Late Serials` or
238 Acquisitions module this preference will allow for
239 the sending of a copy of the email to the librarian.
241 .. _currencyformat-label:
244 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
246 Default: 360,000.00 (US)
248 Asks: Display currencies using the following format \_\_\_
263 Asks: The default tax rate is \_\_\_
267 - This preference will allow the library to define a default Goods and
268 Services Tax rate. The default of value of 0 will disable this
273 Enter this value as a number (.06) versus a percent (6%).
275 .. _marcfieldstoorder-label:
278 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
280 Asks: Set the mapping values for a new order line created from a MARC
281 record in a staged file.
285 - This preference includes MARC fields to check for order information
286 to use when you are trying to :ref:`Order from a staged file` in
287 acquisitions. You can use the following fields: price, quantity,
288 budget\_code, discount, sort1, sort2.
298 .. _marcitemfieldstoorder-label:
300 MarcItemFieldsToOrder
301 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
303 Asks: Set the mapping values for new item records created from a MARC record
308 - This preference automatically generates items in Koha with populated
309 information based on a 9XX field and subfield. You can use the following
310 fields: homebranch, holdingbranch, itype, nonpublic_note, public_note, loc,
311 ccode, notforloan, uri, copyno, price, replacementprice and itemcallnumber.
312 Special fields: quantity and budget_code
323 .. _purgesuggestionsolderthan-label:
325 PurgeSuggestionsOlderThan
326 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
328 Asks: Keep accepted or rejected purchase suggestions for a period of \_\_\_ days.
332 WARNING - Leave this field empty if you don't want to activate this automatic feature.
336 - Enter the number of days after which you want to automatically
337 delete accepted or rejected purchase suggestions.
339 - For example: [30] Sets purgation of suggestions for those older than 30 days.
343 This system preference is used when the cronjob purge_suggestions.pl is
344 active and called without a specific number of days.
346 .. _uniqueitemfields-label:
349 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
353 Asks:\_\_\_ (space-separated list of fields that should be unique for
354 items, must be valid SQL fields of
355 `items <http://schema.koha-community.org/master/tables/items.html>`__ table)
359 - If this preference is left blank when adding items in acquisitions
360 there will be no check for uniqueness. This means that a duplicate
361 barcode can be created in acquisitions which will cause errors later
362 when checking items in and out.
364 .. _useacqframeworkforbibliorecords-label:
366 UseACQFrameworkForBiblioRecords
367 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
371 Asks: \_\_\_ the framework 'ACQ' for bibliographic records fields

392 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
394 Default: pdfformat::layout2pages
396 Asks: Use \_\_\_ when printing basket groups.
398 .. _administration-system-preferences-label:
401 --------------------------------
403 These preferences are general settings for your system.
405 *Get there:* More > Administration > Global System Preferences >
408 .. _cas-authentication-label:
411 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
413 The Central Authentication Service (CAS) is a single sign-on protocol
414 for the web. If you don't know what this is, leave these preferences set
417 .. _casauthentication-label:

424 Asks: \_\_\_ CAS for login authentication.
429 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
431 Asks: Logout of CAS when logging out of Koha: \_\_\_
443 - CAS single logout means that a user gets logged out not only from the CAS
444 server but also from all visited CAS client applications when logged out
445 in one of them or after reaching a timeout.
449 The CAS server has to be set up to allow single logout for this to take
450 effect, otherwise the behavior will remain unchanged
452 .. _casserverurl-label:
455 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
457 Asks: The CAS Authentication Server can be found at \_\_\_

516 GoogleOAuth2ClientSecret
517 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
519 Asks: Google OAuth2 Client Secret \_\_\_
521 .. _googleopenidconnect-label:
524 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
528 Asks: Use Google OpenID Connect login: \_\_\_
532 You will need to select OAuth2 when creating an app in the google

586 Leave blank for all google domains
588 .. _interface-options-label:
591 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
593 These preference are related to your Koha interface
595 .. _debuglevel-label:
598 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
602 Asks: Show \_\_\_ debugging information in the browser when an internal
607 - lots of - will show as much information as possible
609 - no - will only show basic error messages
611 - some - will show only some of the information available
615 - This preference determines how much information will be sent to the
616 user's screen when the system encounters an error. The most detail
617 will be sent when the value level is set at 2, some detail will be
618 sent when the value is set at 1, and only a basic error message will
619 display when the value is set at 0. This setting is especially
620 important when a system is new and the administration is interested
621 in working out the bugs (errors or problems) quickly. Having detailed
622 error messages makes quick fixes more likely in problem areas.
624 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarycircrules-label:
626 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryCircRules
627 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
629 Default: all libraries
631 Asks: When editing circulation rules show \_\_\_ the rules by default.
637 - logged in library's
641 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
642 found at the top of the :ref:`Circulation and fines rules`.
644 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarynoticesslips-label:
646 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryNoticesSlips
647 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
649 Default: all libraries
651 Asks: When editing notices and slips show the \_\_\_ notices and slips
658 - logged in library's
662 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
663 found at the top of the :ref:`Notices & slips` tool.
665 .. _defaulttologgedinlibraryoverduetriggers-label:
667 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryOverdueTriggers
668 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
670 Default: all libraries
672 Asks: When editing overdue notice/status triggers show the \_\_\_ rules
679 - logged in library's
683 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
684 found at the top of the :ref:`Overdue Notice/Status Triggers`.
689 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
693 Asks: Separate columns in an exported report file with \_\_\_ by
712 - This preference determines how reports exported from Koha will
713 separate data. In many cases you will be able to change this option
714 when exporting if you'd like.
716 .. _kohaadminemailaddress-label:
718 KohaAdminEmailAddress
719 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
721 This is the default 'From' address for emails unless there is one for
722 the particular branch, and is referred to when an internal error occurs.
724 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address for the administrator of Koha.
728 - This preference allows one email address to be used in warning
729 messages set to the OPAC. If no email address is set for the branch
730 this address will receive messages from patrons regarding
731 modification requests, purchase suggestions, and questions or
732 information regarding overdue notices. It is recommended that a email
733 address that can be accessed by multiple staff members be used for
734 this purpose so that if one librarian is out the others can address
735 these requests. This email address can be changed when needed.
737 .. _noitemtypeimages-label:
740 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
744 Asks: \_\_\_ itemtype icons in the catalog.
754 - This preference allows the system administrator to determine if users
755 will be able to set and see an item type icon in
756 the catalog on both the OPAC and the Staff Client. The images will
757 display in both the OPAC and the Staff Client/Intranet. If images of
758 item types are disabled, text labels for item types will still appear
759 in the OPAC and Staff Client.
761 .. _replytodefault-label:
764 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
766 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address that will be set as the replyto in
771 - By default replies to notice emails will go to the `library email
772 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
773 email address for all replies to notices you can do that here.
775 .. _returnpathdefault-label:
778 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
780 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address set as the return path, if you
781 leave this empty the KohaAdminEmailAddress will be used.
785 - The return path is the email address that bounces will be delivered
786 to. By default bounced notices will go to the `library email
787 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
788 email address for bounces to go to then fill in this preference.
790 .. _sendallemailsto-label:
793 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
795 Asks: Email to redirect all messages to: \_\_\_ (Leave this field empty to
796 send messages to their normal recipient)
800 - This system preference is used to override any patron email address with this one
801 when sending notices. This is meant to be used in a testing environment to
802 test notices and to avoid spamming patrons.
806 This is not to be used in a production environment. Otherwise, no patron
807 will receive their intended notices.
809 .. _virtualshelves-label:
812 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
816 Asks: \_\_\_ staff and patrons to create and view saved lists of books.
826 - This preference controls whether the lists functionality will be
827 available in the staff client and OPAC. If this is set to "Don't
828 allow" then no one will be able to save items to public or private
831 .. _login-options-label:
834 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
836 These preferences are related to logging into your Koha system
838 .. _autolocation-label:
841 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
843 Default: Don't require
845 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to log in from a computer in the IP address range
846 specified by their library (if any).
848 - Set IP address range in the library administration area
850 - *Get there:* More > Administration > Basic Parameters > :ref:`Libraries <libraries-label>`
860 - This preference protects the system by blocking unauthorized users
861 from accessing the staff client program and settings. Authorized and
862 unauthorized users are determined by their computer's IP addresses.
863 When the preference is set to 'Require', IP authorization is in
864 effect and unauthorized IP addresses will be blocked. This means that
865 staff cannot work from home unless their IP address has been
866 authorized. When set to 'Don't require', anyone with a staff client
867 login will have access no matter which IP address they are using.
869 .. _independentbranches-label:
872 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
874 Default: Don't prevent
876 Asks: \_\_\_ staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects
877 (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries.
887 - This preference should only be used by library systems which are
888 sharing a single Koha installation among multiple branches but are
889 considered independent organizations, meaning they do not share
890 material or patrons with other branches and do not plan to change
891 that in the future. If set to 'Prevent' it increases the security
892 between library branches by: prohibiting staff users from logging
893 into another branch from within the staff client, filtering out
894 patrons from patron searches who are not a part of the login branch
895 conducting the search, limiting the location choices to the login
896 branch when adding or modifying an item record, preventing users from
897 other branch locations from placing holds or checking out materials
898 from library branches other than their own, and preventing staff from
899 editing item records which belong to other library branches. All of
900 these security safeguards can be overridden only by the
901 superlibrarian, the highest level of privileges.
905 It is important that this value be set before going live and that it
908 .. _independentbranchespatronmodifications-label:
910 IndependentBranchesPatronModifications
911 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
915 Asks: Prevent staff (but not superlibrarians) from viewing and
916 approving/denying patron modification requests for patrons
917 belonging to other libraries. \_\_\_
925 .. _sessionrestrictionbyip-label:
927 SessionRestrictionByIP
928 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
932 Asks: \_\_\_ check for change in remote IP address for session security.
933 Disable only when remote IP address changes frequently.
943 - When this preference is set to 'Enable' Koha will log you out of the
944 staff client if your IP address changes as a security measure. For
945 some systems the IP address changes frequently so you'll want to set
946 this preference to 'Disable' to prevent Koha from logging you out of
947 the staff client every time that happens.
951 This is meant to help those whose IP address changes several times
952 during the day, setting this preference to 'Disable' is not
953 recommended otherwise because it is removing important security
954 features from your staff client.
956 .. _sessionstorage-label:
959 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
961 Default: in the MySQL database
963 Asks: Store login session information \_\_\_
969 - in the MySQL database
971 - in the PostgreSQL database
975 PostgreSQL is not yet supported
979 - This preference allows administrators to choose what format session
980 data is stored in during web sessions.
985 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
989 Asks: Automatically log out users after \_\_\_ seconds of inactivity.
993 - This preference sets the length of time the Staff Client or OPAC
994 accounts can be left inactive before re-logging in is necessary. The
995 value of this preference is in seconds. At this time, the amount of
996 time before a session times out must be the same for both the Staff

1219 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1221 .. _authdisplayhierarchy-label:
1223 AuthDisplayHierarchy
1224 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1226 Default: Don't display
1228 Asks: \_\_\_ broader term/narrower term hierarchies when viewing
1241 - If your authority records includes 5xx fields with linked references
1242 to broader and/or narrower see also references this preference will
1243 turn on a display of those authorities at the top of the record.
1245 .. _authoritycontrolledindicators-label:
1247 AuthorityControlledIndicators
1248 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1250 Asks: Use the following text to edit how authority records control indicators
1251 of attached biblio fields (and possibly subfield $2). Lines starting with a
1252 comment symbol (#) are skipped. Each line should be of the form: (marc21|unimarc),
1253 tag, ind1:(auth1|auth2|some_value), ind2:(auth1|auth2|thesaurus|some_value).
1254 Here auth1 and auth2 refer to the indicators of the authority record, tag is a
1255 biblio field number or an asterisk (*), and some_value is a fixed value
1256 (one character). The MARC21 option thesaurus refers to indicators controlled by
1257 authority field 008/11 and 040$f.
1261 - Used when merging authorities.
1263 - Controls how the indicators of linked authority records affect the
1264 corresponding biblio indicators. Currently, the default value is fine-tuned
1265 for MARC21 and copies the authority indicators for UNIMARC.
1267 - For example, a MARC21 field 100 in a biblio record should pick its first
1268 indicator from the linked authority record. The second indicator is not
1269 controlled by the authority. This report supports such MARC conventions.
1271 .. _authoritymergelimit-label:
1274 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1278 Asks: When modifying an authority record, do not update attached biblio
1279 records if the number exceeds \_\_\_ records. (Above this limit, the merge_authority
1280 cron job will merge them.)
1282 .. _authoritymergemode-label:
1285 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1289 Asks: When updating biblio records from an attached authority record ("merging"),
1290 handle subfields of relevant biblio record fields in \_\_\_ mode. In strict mode
1291 subfields that are not found in the authority record, are deleted. Loose mode
1292 will keep them. Loose mode is the historical behavior and still the default.
1300 .. _autocreateauthorities-label:
1302 AutoCreateAuthorities
1303 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1305 Default: do not generate
1307 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ authority records that are missing.
1317 `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ must be set to
1318 "allow" for this to have any effect
1322 - When this and `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ are
1323 both turned on, automatically create authority records for headings
1324 that don't have any authority link when cataloging. When
1325 BiblioAddsAuthorities is on and AutoCreateAuthorities is turned off,
1326 do not automatically generate authority records, but allow the user
1327 to enter headings that don't match an existing authority. When
1328 BiblioAddsAuthorities is off, this has no effect.
1330 .. _biblioaddsauthorities-label:
1332 BiblioAddsAuthorities
1333 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1337 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ them to automatically create new
1338 authority records if needed, rather than having to reference existing
1345 - This setting allows you to type values in the fields controlled by
1346 authorities and then adds a new authority if one does not exist
1350 - This setting will lock the authority controlled fields, forcing
1351 you to search for an authority versus allowing you to type the
1352 information in yourself.
1354 .. _marcauthoritycontrolfield008-label:
1356 MARCAuthorityControlField008
1357 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1359 Default: \|\| aca\|\|aabn \| a\|a d
1361 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of MARC21 authority
1362 control field 008 position 06-39 (fixed length data elements).
1366 Do not include the date (position 00-05) in this preference, Koha
1367 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1372 - This preference controls the default value in the 008 field on
1373 Authority records. It does not effect bibliographic records.
1375 .. _unimarcauthorityfield100-label:
1377 UNIMARCAuthorityField100
1378 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1380 Default: afrey50 ba0
1382 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of UNIMARC authority field
1383 100 position (fixed length data elements).
1387 Do not include the date (position 00-07) in this preference, Koha
1388 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1393 - This preference controls the default value in the 100 field on
1394 Authority records cataloged in UNIMARC. It does not effect
1395 bibliographic records.
1397 .. _useauthoritiesfortracings-label:
1399 UseAuthoritiesForTracings
1400 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1404 Asks: \_\_\_ authority record numbers instead of text strings for
1405 searches from subject tracings.
1411 - Search links look for subject/author keywords (example:
1412 opac-search.pl?q=su:Business%20networks)
1416 - Search links look for an authority record (example:
1417 opac-search.pl?q=an:354)
1421 - For libraries that have authority files, they may want to make it so
1422 that when a link to an authorized subject or author is clicked on the
1423 OPAC or staff client it takes the searcher only to a list of results
1424 with that authority record. Most libraries do not have complete
1425 authority files and so setting this preference to 'Don't use' will
1426 allow searchers to click on links to authors and subject headings and
1427 perform a keyword search against those fields, finding all possible
1428 relevant results instead.
1433 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1435 These preferences will control how Koha links bibliographic records to
1436 authority records. All bibliographic records added to Koha after these
1437 preferences are set will link automatically to authority records, for
1438 records added before these preferences are set there is a script
1439 (misc/link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl) that your system administrator can
1440 run to link records together.
1442 .. _catalogmodulerelink-label:
1445 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1449 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically relink headings that have previously been
1450 linked when saving records in the cataloging module.
1460 - Longtime users of Koha don't expect the authority and bib records to
1461 link consistently. This preference makes it possible to disable
1462 authority relinking in the cataloging module only (i.e. relinking is
1463 still possible if link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl is run). Note that
1464 though the default behavior matches the previous behavior of Koha
1465 (retaining links to outdated authority records), it does not match
1466 the intended behavior (updating biblio/authority link after
1467 bibliographic record is edited). Libraries that want the intended
1468 behavior of authority control rather than the way Koha used to handle
1469 linking should set CatalogModuleRelink to 'Do'. Once setting this to
1470 'Do' the following preferences can also be set.
1472 .. _linkerkeepstale-label:
1475 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1479 Asks: \_\_\_ keep existing links to authority records for headings where
1480 the linker is unable to find a match.
1490 - When set to 'Do', the linker will never remove a link to an authority
1491 record, though, depending on the value of
1492 :ref:`LinkerRelink`, it may change the link.
1494 .. _linkermodule-label:
1497 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1501 Asks: Use the \_\_\_ linker module for matching headings to authority
1508 - Retains Koha's previous behavior of only creating links when there
1509 is an exact match to one and only one authority record; if the
1510 :ref:`LinkerOptions` preference is set to
1511 'broader\_headings', it will try to link headings to authority
1512 records for broader headings by removing subfields from the end of
1517 - Creates a link to the first authority record that matches a given
1518 heading, even if there is more than one authority record that
1523 - Creates a link to the last authority record that matches a given
1524 heading, even if there is more than one record that matches
1528 - This preference tells Koha which match to use when searching for
1529 authority matches when saving a record.
1531 .. _linkeroptions-label:
1534 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1536 Asks: Set the following options for the authority linker \_\_\_
1540 This feature is experimental and shouldn't be used in a production
1541 environment until further expanded upon.
1545 - This is a pipe separated (\|) list of options. At the moment, the
1546 only option available is "broader\_headings." With this option set to
1547 "broader\_headings", the linker will try to match the following
1552 =600 10$aCamins-Esakov, Jared$xCoin collections$vCatalogs$vEarly works to 1800.
1554 First: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs--Early works
1557 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs
1559 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections
1561 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared (matches! if a previous attempt had
1562 matched, it would not have tried this)
1564 .. _linkerrelink-label:
1567 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1571 Asks: \_\_\_ relink headings that have previously been linked to
1582 - When set to 'Do', the linker will confirm the links for headings that
1583 have previously been linked to an authority record when it runs,
1584 correcting any incorrect links it may find. When set to 'Do not', any
1585 heading with an existing link will be ignored, even if the existing
1586 link is invalid or incorrect.

1601 .. _acquisitiondetails-label:
1604 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1608 Asks: \_\_\_ acquisition details on the biblio detail page.
1618 - This preference controls whether a tab will show on the detail page
1619 in the staff client that includes detailed acquisitions information
1620 for the title. This tab will include links to order information
1621 stored in the acquisitions module.
1625 .. _authorityseparator-label:

1642 Asks: \_\_\_ MARC tag numbers, subfield codes and indicators in MARC
1647 - Display -- shows the tag numbers on the cataloging interface
1651 - Don't display -- shows just descriptive text when cataloging
1655 .. _intranetbibliodefaultview-label:

1658 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1662 Asks: By default, display biblio records in \_\_\_
1666 - ISBD form -- displays records in the staff client in the old card
1669 - See :ref:`ISBD` preference for more information
1671 - Labelled MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC
1672 with text labels to explain the different fields
1674 - MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC
1676 - normal form -- visual display in the staff client (for the average
1681 - This setting determines the bibliographic record display when
1682 searching the catalog on the staff client. This setting does not
1683 affect the display in the OPAC which is changed using the
1684 :ref:`BiblioDefaultView` preference under the OPAC
1685 preference tab. This setting changes the look of the record when
1686 first displayed. The MARC and ISBD views can still be seen by
1687 clicking in the sidebar.
1692 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1694 Default: See `ISBD view configuration
1695 <https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ISBD_view_configuration>` on the wiki.
1697 Asks: Use the following as the ISBD template:
1701 - This determines how the ISBD information will display in the staff
1702 client. Elements in the list can be reordered to produce a different
1703 ISBD view. ISBD, the International Standard Bibliographic
1704 Description, was first introduced by IFLA (International Federation
1705 of Library Associations) in 1969 in order to provide guidelines for
1706 descriptive cataloging. The purpose of ISBD is to aid the
1707 international exchange of bibliographic records for a variety of
1710 .. _labelmarcview-label:
1713 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1717 Asks: \_\_\_ collapse repeated tags of the same type into one tag entry.
1721 - Do -- will combine all identical tag numbers under one heading in the
1722 MARC view in the OPAC and Staff Client
1726 - Don't -- will list all of the tags individually in the MARC view in
1727 the OPAC and Staff Client
1731 .. _marcfielddocurl-label:
1734 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1738 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}
1742 - This preference lets you choose the source of the MARC documentation available through the "?" next to MARC fields.
1744 .. _mergereportfields-label:
1747 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1749 Asks: \_\_\_ fields to display for deleted records after merge
1753 - When merging records together you can receive a report of the merge
1754 process once it's done, this preference lets you set the default
1755 values for this report.
1757 Example: '001,245ab,600' displays:
1761 - subfields a and b of fields 245
1763 - all subfields of fields 600
1765 .. _notesblacklist-label:
1768 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1770 Asks: Don't show these \_\_\_ note fields in title notes separator (OPAC
1771 record details) and in the description separator (Staff client record
1776 - This preference lets you define which of your note fields are hidden
1777 from the title notes (OPAC) and descriptions (Staff) tabs. Enter the
1778 values as a comma separated list. For example to hide the local note
1779 and the bibliography note in MARC21 enter 504, 590.
1781 .. _opacsuppression-preferences-label:
1783 OpacSuppression, OpacSuppressionByIPRange, OpacSuppressionRedirect, and OpacSuppressionMessage
1784 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1786 OpacSuppression Default: Don't hide
1788 Asks: \_\_\_ items marked as suppressed from OPAC search results.
1789 Restrict the suppression to IP addressesoutside of the IP range \_\_\_
1790 (Leave blank if not used. Define a range like 192.168..) Redirect the opac detail
1791 page for suppressed records to \_\_\_ Display the following message on
1792 the redirect page for suppressed biblios \_\_\_.
1794 OpacSuppression Values:
1798 - Will show records in OPAC search results if they are marked
1803 - Will not show records in OPAC search results if they're marked as
1806 OpacSuppressionRedirect Values:
1808 - an explanatory page ('This record is blocked').
1810 - the 404 error page ('Not found').
1814 - These preferences control hiding of bibliographic records from
1815 display in the OPAC. Each bibliographic record you want to hide from
1816 the OPAC simply needs to have the value "1" in the field mapped with
1817 Suppress index (942$n field in MARC21, no official field in UNIMARC).
1818 The indexer then hides it from display in OPAC but will still display
1819 it in the Staff Client. If you want to further control suppression
1820 you can set an IP address range to still show suppressed items to.
1821 Define a range like 192.168.. If you don't want to limit suppression
1822 in this way, leave the IP field blank. You can also decide what the
1823 patrons will see in the OPAC when a title is suppressed by setting
1824 the OpacSuppressionRedirect and OpacSuppressionMessage preferences.
1825 You can either show the patron a 404 page if they try to see a
1826 suppressed record or you can create a custom page by entering the
1827 HTML in the OpacSuppressionMessage part of this preference.
1831 An :ref:`authorized value <authorized-values-label>` for the MARC21 942$n
1832 field (or the equivalent UNIMARC field) should be set to
1833 eliminate errors. One example would be to create an authorized
1834 value titled SUPPRESS with a value of 0 for don't suppress and 1
1839 If this preference is set to 'hide' and you have the 942n field set
1840 to 1, it will hide the entire bib record - not just an individual
1845 Suppressed records will show a note in the staff client indicating
1846 that they are suppressed from view in the OPAC.
1850 This note can be styled by using the
1851 :ref:`IntranetUserCSS` preference to stand out more

1859 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1861 SeparateHoldings default: Don't separate
1863 SeparateHoldingsBranch default: home library
1865 Asks: \_\_\_ items display into two tabs, where the first tab contains

1867 contain all other items.
1869 SeparateHoldings values:
1875 SeparateHoldingsBranch values:
1883 - This preference lets you decide if you would like to have the holding
1884 information on the bibliographic detail page in the staff client
1885 split in to multiple tabs. The default is to show all holdings on one
1890 .. _urllinktext-label:
1893 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1895 Default: Online Resource
1897 Asks: Show \_\_\_ as the text of links embedded in MARC records.
1901 - If the 856 field does not have a subfield 3 or y defined, the OPAC
1902 will say 'Click here to access online.^ If you would like the field
1903 to say something else enter that in this field.
1905 .. _usecontrolnumber-label:
1908 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1912 Asks: \_\_\_ record control number ($w subfields) and control number
1913 (001) for linking of bibliographic records.
1919 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
1920 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a title
1925 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
1926 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a
1927 control number (MARC field 001) search
1931 Unless you are going in and manually changing 773$w to match your
1932 rigorously-defined bibliographic relationships, you should set this
1933 preference to "Don't use" and instead set
1934 :ref:`EasyAnalyticalRecords` to "Display"
1938 - If you have a serial called "Journal of Interesting Things" which has
1939 a separate record from when it was called "Transactions of the
1940 Interesting Stuff Society," you could add linking fields to indicate
1941 the relationship between the two records. UseControlNumber allows you
1942 to use your local accession numbers for those links. In MARC21, the
1943 relevant sections of the two records might look like this:
1948 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society.
1949 =245 10$aTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.
1950 =785 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tJournal of Interesting Things.$w12346
1953 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society.
1954 =245 10$aJournal of Interesting Things.
1955 =780 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.$w12345
1957 With UseControlNumber set to 'Use', the 78x links will use the
1958 Control Numbers is subfield $w, instead of doing a title search on
1959 "Journal of Interesting Things" and "Transactions of the Interesting
1960 Stuff Society" respectively.

2035 to match aggressively by trying all variations of the ISBNs in the
2036 imported record as a phrase in the ISBN fields of already cataloged
2047 - This preference allows you to choose to alter the ISBN matching rule
2048 used when staging records for import to be more aggressive. This
2049 means that all text will be stripped from the ISBN field so that a
2050 pure number match is possible. If this preference is set to "Don't"

2129 EasyAnalyticalRecords
2130 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2132 Default: Don't Display
2134 Asks: \_\_\_ easy ways to create analytical record relationships
2144 If you decide to use this feature you'll want to make sure that your
2145 :ref:`UseControlNumber` preference is set to "Don't
2146 use" or else the "Show analytics" links in the staff client and the
2147 OPAC will be broken.
2151 - An analytic entry in a catalog is one that describes a part of a
2152 larger work that is also described in the catalog. In bibliographic
2153 cataloging, analytic entries may be made for chapters in books or
2154 special issues of articles in periodicals. In archival cataloging,
2155 analytic entries may be made for series or items within a collection.
2156 This feature in Koha allows for an easy way of linking analytic
2157 entries to the host records, and this system preference adds several
2158 new menu options to the staff cataloging detail pages to allow that

2188 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2190 Asks: Display MARC subfield \_\_\_ as holdings information for records
2191 that do not have items, with the subfields separated by \_\_\_.
2195 - Sometimes libraries migrate to Koha with their holding info in the
2196 852 field (OCLC holdings information field) and choose not to
2197 transfer that information into the 952 (Koha holdings information
2198 field) because they don't plan on circulating those items. For those
2199 libraries or other libraries that have data in the 852 fields of
2200 their records that they want to display, these preferences let you
2201 choose to display holdings info from a field other than the 952
2202 field. The AlternateHoldingsField preference can contain multiple
2203 subfields to look in; for instance 852abhi would look in 852
2204 subfields a, b, h, and i.

2227 - generated in the form 1, 2, 3
2229 - incremental EAN-13 barcodes
2231 - not generated automatically
2235 - This setting is for libraries wishing to generate barcodes from
2236 within Koha (as opposed to scanning in pre-printed barcodes or
2237 manually assigning them). The default behavior makes it so that when
2238 you click in the barcode field (952$p in MARC21) it will populate
2239 with the automatic barcode you have chosen. If you would rather it
2240 only enter an automatic barcode when you click on the plugin (the ...
2241 to the right of the field) you can change the plugin used for that
2242 field in the framework. Set the plugin for 952$p (if using MARC21 or
2243 equivalent field mapped to items.barcode in your local MARC format)
2244 for your frameworks to barcode\_manual.pl instead of barcode.pl.

2338 - This setting determines which MARC field will be used to determine
2339 the call number that will be entered into item records automatically
2340 (952$o). The value is set by providing the MARC field code (050, 082,
2341 090, 852 are all common in MARC21) and the subfield codes without the
2342 delimiters ($a, $b would be ab).

2896 based on the cron (usually run nightly) and then again when you check
2897 the item in. This option is best for those who are doing hourly
2898 loans. If this preference is set to "Don't" then fines will only be
2899 accrued if the fines cron job is running.
2903 If you are doing hourly loans then you should have this set to 'Do'.

3062 - This preference defines certain keywords that will trigger Koha to
3063 restrict checkout based on age. These restrictions can be overridden
3064 by the :ref:`AgeRestrictionOverride`
3065 preference. Enter in this field a series of keywords separated by bar
3066 (\|) with no spaces. For example PG\|R\|E\|EC\|Age\| will look for PG
3067 followed by an age number, R folllowed by an age number, Age followed
3068 by an age number, and so on. These values can appear in any MARC
3069 field, but Library of Congress recommends the 521$a (Target Audience

3138 Default: Don't allow
3140 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override and check out items to patrons
3141 who have more than :ref:`noissuescharge` in fines.
3151 - This preference lets you decide if you staff can check out to patrons
3152 who owe more money than you usually let them carry on their account.
3153 If set to 'Allow' staff will be warned that the patrons owes money,
3154 but it won't stop the staff from checking out to the patron.
3156 .. _allowitemsonholdcheckout-label:
3158 AllowItemsOnHoldCheckout
3159 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3161 Default: Don't allow
3163 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else. If allowed do
3164 not generate RESERVE\_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This allows self
3165 checkouts for those items.
3175 This system preference relates only to SIP based self checkout, not
3176 Koha's web based self checkout.
3180 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
3181 your external self check machine to check out a book to themselves
3182 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
3183 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
3184 else set this preference to "Don't allow."

3191 Default: Don't allow
3193 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else in the SCO module.
3194 If allowed do not generate RESERVE_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This
3195 allows self checkouts for those items.
3205 This system preference relates only to Koha's web based self checkout.
3209 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
3210 Koha's web based self checkout to check out a book to themselves
3211 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
3212 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
3213 else set this preference to "Don't allow".
3215 .. _allowmultipleissuesonabiblio-label:
3217 AllowMultipleIssuesOnABiblio
3218 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3222 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons to check out multiple items from the same record.
3232 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then patrons will be able to
3233 check out multiple copies of the same title at the same time. If it's
3234 set to "Don't allow" then patrons will only be allowed to check out
3235 one item attached to a record at a time. Regardless of the option
3236 chosen in this preference records with subscriptions attached will
3237 allow multiple check outs.
3241 This will only effect records without a subscription attached.
3243 .. _allownotforloanoverride-label:
3245 AllowNotForLoanOverride
3246 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3250 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items that are marked as
3261 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls the ability of
3262 staff (patrons will always be prevented from checking these items
3263 out) to check out items that are marked as "not for loan". Setting it
3264 to "Allow" would allow such items to be checked out, setting it to
3265 "Don't allow" would prevent this. This setting determines whether
3266 items meant to stay in the library, such as reference materials, and
3267 other library resources can be checked out by patrons.
3269 .. _allowrenewallimitoverride-label:
3271 AllowRenewalLimitOverride
3272 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3276 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override the renewal limit and renew a
3277 checkout when it would go over the renewal limit.
3287 - This preference is a binary setting which controls the ability of
3288 staff to override the limits placed on the number of times an item
3289 can be renewed. Setting it to "Allow" would allow such limits to be
3290 overridden, setting it to "Don't allow" would prevent this. This is a
3291 preference in which if it is set to "allow" it would allow the
3292 library staff to use their judgment for overriding the renew limit
3293 for special cases, setting it to "Don't allow" prevents an
3294 opportunity for abuse by the library staff.
3296 .. _allowrenewalonholdoverride-label:
3298 AllowRenewalOnHoldOverride
3299 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3301 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to renew items that are on hold by manually specifying a due date.
3303 Default: Don't allow
3313 - This preference enables items that are on hold to be renewed with a due date specified by the user.
3315 It can appear in two locations:
3317 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.
3319 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.
3321 .. _allowreturntobranch-label:

3332 - either the library the item is from or the library it was checked out
3335 - only the library the item is from.
3337 - only the library the item was checked out from.
3343 - This preference lets the library system decide how they will accept
3344 returns. Some systems allow for items to be returned to any library
3345 in the system (the default value of this preference) others want to
3346 limit item returns to only specific branches. This preference will
3347 allow you to limit item returns (checkins) to the branch(es) set in
3350 .. _allowtoomanyoverride-label:
3352 AllowTooManyOverride
3353 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3357 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items when the patron has
3358 reached the maximum number of allowed checkouts.
3372 - If this preference is set to "Allow" then staff all will be presented
3373 with an option to checkout more items to a patron than are normally
3374 allowed in the :ref:`Circulation and fines rules`. If
3375 this preference is set to "Don't allow" then no staff member will be
3376 able to check out more than the circulation limit.
3378 .. _automaticitemreturn-label:
3381 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3385 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically transfer items to their home branch when they
3396 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether an item
3397 is returned to its home branch automatically or not. If set to
3398 "Don't", the staff member checking an item in at a location other
3399 than the item's home branch will be asked whether the item will
3400 remain at the non-home branch (in which case the new location will be
3401 marked as a holding location) or returned. Setting it to "Do" will
3402 ensure that items checked in at a branch other than their home branch
3403 will be sent to that home branch.
3405 .. _autoremoveoverduesrestrictions-label:
3407 AutoRemoveOverduesRestrictions
3408 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3412 Asks: \_\_\_ allow OVERDUES restrictions triggered by sent notices to be
3413 cleared automatically when all overdue items are returned by a patron.
3423 - Using the :ref:`Overdue Notice/Status Triggers` you
3424 can restrict patrons after they receive an overdue notice. This
3425 preference lets you define whether Koha will automatically remove
3426 that restriction once the overdue items in question are returned or
3429 .. _autoreturncheckedoutitems-label:
3431 AutoReturnCheckedOutItems
3432 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3434 Asks: \_\_\_ require librarians to manually confirm a checkout where the item
3435 is already checked out to another patron.
3447 - This preference controls whether Koha asks for a confirmation when trying
3448 to check out an item that is already checked out to another patron.
3450 - Set to 'Do', Koha will ask the staff member to confirm the check out.
3454 - Set to 'Don't', Koha will simply return the item from the previous
3455 patron's file and check it out to the actual patron and show a message.
3459 .. _circcontrol-label:
3462 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3464 Default: the library the item is from

3470 - the library the item is from
3472 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>`
3473 will be determined by the item's library where :ref:`HomeOrHoldingBranch`
3474 chooses if item's home library is used or holding library is used.
3476 - the library the patron is from
3478 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>`
3479 will be determined the patron's home library
3481 - the library you are logged in at
3483 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` will be
3484 determined by the library that checked the item out to the patron
3486 .. _consideronsitecheckoutsasnormalcheckouts-label:
3488 ConsiderOnSiteCheckoutsAsNormalCheckouts
3489 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3493 Asks: \_\_\_ on-site checkouts as normal checkouts. If enabled, the
3494 number of checkouts allowed will be normal checkouts + on-site
3495 checkouts. If disabled, both values will be checked separately.
3505 - This preference allows you to decide if checkouts that are
3506 :ref:`OnSiteCheckouts` are counted toward the total
3507 checkouts a patron can have. You can also set your :ref:`circulation and
3508 fines rules <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` to allow only a certain number of
3509 normal and OnSite checkouts.

3516 Asks: Charge a lost item to the borrower's account when the LOST value
3517 of the item changes to \_\_\_
3521 - Leave this field empty if you don't want to charge the user for lost
3522 items. If you want the user to be charged enter the `LOST authorized
3523 value <#lost>`__ you are using in the
3524 :ref:`DefaultLongOverdueLostValue <defaultlongoverduelostvalue-and-defaultlongoverduedays-label>`
3525 preference. This preference is used when the :ref:`longoverdue cron
3526 job <cron-long-overdues-label>` is called without the --charge parameter.
3528 .. _defaultlongoverduelostvalue-and-defaultlongoverduedays-label:
3530 DefaultLongOverdueLostValue and DefaultLongOverdueDays
3531 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3533 Asks: By default, set the LOST value of an item to \_\_\_ when the item
3534 has been overdue for more than \_\_\_ days.
3538 - These preferences are used when the :ref:`longoverdue cron
3539 job <cron-long-overdues-label>` is called without the --lost parameter. It
3540 allows users to set the values of the :ref:`longoverdue
3541 cron <cron-long-overdues-label>` without having to edit the crontab.
3542 Setting the values to 1 and 30 for example will mark the item with
3543 the `LOST authorized value <#lost>`__ of 1 after the item is 30 days
3546 .. _holdsinnoissuescharge-label:
3548 HoldsInNoissuesCharge
3549 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3551 Default: Don't include
3553 Asks: \_\_\_ hold charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge.
3561 .. _homeorholdingbranch-label:
3564 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3566 Default: the library the item was checked out from
3568 Asks: Use the checkout and fines rules of \_\_\_
3572 - the library the item is from
3574 - This is equivalent to 'home library'
3576 - the library the item was checked out from
3578 - This is equivalent to 'holding library'
3582 - This preference does several things.
3584 - If :ref:`CircControl` is set to 'the library the item
3585 is from' then the :ref:`circulation and fines
3586 policies <circulation-and-fines-rules-label>` will be determined by the item's
3587 library where HomeOrHoldingBranch chooses if item's home library
3588 is used or holding library is used.
3590 - If :ref:`IndependentBranches` is set to
3591 'Prevent' then the value of this preference is used in figuring
3592 out if the item can be checked out. If the item's home library
3593 does not match the logged in library, the item cannot be checked
3594 out unless you are a :ref:`superlibrarian <patron-permissions-defined-label>`.
3598 It is not recommend that this setting be changed after initial setup
3599 of Koha because it will change the behavior of items already checked
3602 .. _issuelostitem-label:
3605 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3607 Default: display a message
3609 Asks: When issuing an item that has been marked as lost, \_\_\_.
3619 - This option will just check the item out without notifying you
3620 that the item was marked lost.
3622 - require confirmation
3628 - This preference lets you define how library staff are notified that
3629 an item with a lost status is being checked out. This will help staff
3630 mark items as 'available' if you choose to 'display a message' or
3631 'require confirmation.^ If you choose to 'do nothing,^ there will be
3632 no notification that the item being checked out is marked as 'lost.^
3634 .. _issuinginprocess-label:
3637 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3639 Default: Don't prevent
3641 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons from checking out an item whose rental charge would
3642 take them over the limit.
3652 - This preference determines if a patron can check items out if there
3653 is an overdue fine on the account and any of the materials the patron
3654 wishes to check out will potentially tip the account balance over the
3655 maximum fines policy the library has in place.
3657 Example: Your library has a $5 limit set for 'fines' (ie, after
3658 incurring $5 in fines, a patron can no longer check out items). A patron
3659 comes to the desk with 5 items to check out (4 books and a video) The
3660 patron has $4 in charges already on their account. One of the videos has
3661 a rental charge of $1, therefore making the total fines on the patron's
3662 account suddenly $5 (the limit).
3664 .. _itemsdeniedrenewal-label:
3667 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3669 Asks: Define custom rules to deny specific items from renewal.
3673 - This preference allows you to specify items that should not be renewed
3674 either from the OPAC or staff client. You can enter any combination of
3675 fields (from the items table in the Koha database) followed by a colon
3676 then a space then a bracketed list of values separated by commas. e.g:
3680 ccode: [NEWFIC,NULL,DVD]
3683 - The word 'NULL' can be used to block renewal on undefined fields,
3684 while an empty string "" will block on an empty (but defined) field.
3688 If using automatic renewal notices your notice text should be updated to
3689 account for the new reason that renewals may be denied "item_denied_renewal".
3691 .. _maninvinnoissuescharge-label:
3693 ManInvInNoissuesCharge
3694 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3698 Asks: \_\_\_ custom debit types when summing up charges for
3709 - This preference lets you decide if charges entered as manual invoices
3710 are included when calculating the
3711 :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set to 'Include' then
3712 Koha will include all manual invoices when deciding if the patron
3713 owes too much money to check anything else out of the library. If
3714 it's set to 'Don't include' then Koha will ignore all manual invoice
3715 charges when figuring out if the patron owes too much money to
3716 checkout additional materials.

3752 than \_\_\_ USD in fines.
3754 .. _noissuescharge-label:
3757 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3761 Asks: Prevent patrons from checking out books if they have more than
3762 \_\_\_ USD in fines.
3766 - This preference is the maximum amount of money owed to the library
3767 before the user is banned from borrowing more items. Using the
3768 :ref:`ManInvInNoissuesCharge` and
3769 :ref:`RentalsInNoissuesCharge` preferences
3770 you can control which types of charges are considered in this total.
3771 This also coincides with :ref:`maxoutstanding` that
3772 limits patrons from placing holds when the maximum amount is owed to
3775 .. _noissueschargeguarantees-label:

3827 simply enter in multiple email addresses separated by commas.
3829 .. _onsitecheckouts-label:
3832 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3836 Asks: \_\_\_ the on-site checkouts feature.
3848 - This preference lets you check out items that are 'not for loan' to
3849 patrons. A checkbox is added to the checkout screen when this
3850 preference is set to 'Enable' labeled 'On-site checkout'. This allows
3851 you to track who's using items that are normally not for loan or are
3852 in a closed stack setting.

4058 Asks: \_\_\_ rental charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge.
4068 - This preference lets you decide if rental charges are included when
4069 calculating the :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set
4070 to include then Koha will include all rental charges when deciding if
4071 the patron owes too much money to check anything else out of the
4072 library. If it's set to Don't include then Koha will ignore all
4073 rental charges when figuring out if the patron owes too much money to
4074 checkout additional materials.

4110 after their library card has expired. If this is set to "Require",
4111 then a due date of any checked out item can not be set for a date
4112 which falls after the patron's card expiration. If the setting is
4113 left "Don't require" then item check out dates may exceed the

4186 BranchTransferLimitsType Description:
4188 - This parameter is a binary setting which determines whether items are
4189 transferred according to item type or collection code. This value
4190 determines how the library manager is able to restrict what items can
4191 be transferred between the branches.

4204 - circulation rules only.
4206 - the calendar to push the due date to the next open day.
4208 - the calendar to skip all days the library is closed.
4212 - This preference controls how scheduled library closures affect the
4213 due date of a material. The 'the calendar to skip all days the
4214 library is closed' setting allows for a scheduled closure not to
4215 count as a day in the loan period, the 'circulation rules only'
4216 setting would not consider the scheduled closure at all, and 'the
4217 calendar to push the due date to the next open day' would only effect
4218 the due date if the day the item is due would fall specifically on
4223 - The library has put December 24th and 25th in as closures on the
4224 calendar. A book checked out by a patron has a due date of December
4225 25th according to the circulation and fine rules. If this preference
4226 is set to 'circulation rules only' then the item will remain due on
4227 the 25th. If the preference is set to 'the calendar to push the due
4228 date to the next open day' then the due date will be December 26th.
4229 If the preference is set to 'the calendar to skip all days the
4230 library is closed' then the due date will be pushed to the 27th of
4231 December to accommodate for the two closed days.
4233 The calendar is defined on a branch by branch basis. To learn more about
4234 the calendar, check out the :ref:`Calendar & Holidays <calendar-label>`

4239 UseTransportCostMatrix
4240 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4244 Asks: \_\_\_ Transport Cost Matrix for calculating optimal holds filling
4255 - If the system is configured to use the :ref:`Transport cost
4256 matrix <transport-cost-matrix-label>` for filling holds, then when
4257 attempting to fill a hold, the system will search for the lowest cost
4258 branch, and attempt to fill the hold with an item from that branch
4259 first. Branches of equal cost will be selected from randomly. The
4260 branch or branches of the next highest cost shall be selected from
4261 only if all the branches in the previous group are unable to fill the

4317 - This preference will determine whether or not fines will be accrued
4318 during instances when the library is closed. Examples include
4319 holidays, library in-service days, etc. Choosing "not including the
4320 days the library is closed" setting will enable Koha to access its
4321 :ref:`Calendar` module and be considerate of dates when
4322 the library is closed. To make use of this setting the administrator
4323 must first access Koha's calendar and mark certain days as "holidays"

4337 Asks: \_\_\_ the grace period when calculating the fine for an overdue
4348 - This preference lets you control how Koha calculates fines when there
4349 is a grace period. If you choose to include the grace period when
4350 calculating fines then Koha will charge for the days in the grace
4351 period should the item be overdue more than those days. If you choose
4352 not to include the grace period then Koha will only charge for the
4353 days overdue after the grace period.

4445 Asks: \_\_\_ the replacement price when a patron loses an item.
4455 - This preference lets you tell Koha what to do with an item is marked
4456 lost. If you want Koha can 'Charge' the patron the replacement fee
4457 listed on the item they lost or it can do nothing in reference to the
4458 patron and just mark the item lost in the catalog.

4463 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4465 Default: Don't forgive
4467 Asks: \_\_\_ the fines on an item when it is lost.
4477 - This preference allows the library to decide if fines are charged in
4478 addition to the replacement fee when an item is marked as lost. If
4479 this preference is set to 'Forgive' then the patron won't be charged
4480 fines in addition to the replacement fee.

4520 AllowHoldPolicyOverride
4521 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4525 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override hold policies when placing holds.
4535 - This preference is a binary setting which controls whether or not the
4536 library staff can override the circulation and fines rules as they
4537 pertain to the placement of holds. Setting this value to "Don't
4538 allow" will prevent anyone from overriding, setting it to "Allow"
4539 will allow it. This setting is important because it determines how
4540 strict the libraries rules for placing holds are. If this is set to
4541 "Allow", exceptions can be made for patrons who are otherwise
4542 normally in good standing with the library, but there is opportunity
4543 for the staff to abuse this function. If it is set to "Don't allow",
4544 no abuse of the system is possible, but it makes the system entirely
4545 inflexible in respect to holds.
4547 .. _allowholdsondamageditems-label:
4549 AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems
4550 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4554 Asks: \_\_\_ hold requests to be placed on damaged items.
4564 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls whether or not hold
4565 requests can be placed on items that are marked as "damaged" (items
4566 are marked as damaged by editing subfield 4 on the item record).
4567 Setting this value to "Don't allow" will prevent anyone from placing
4568 a hold on such items, setting it to "Allow" will allow it. This
4569 preference is important because it determines whether or not a patron
4570 can place a request for an item that might be in the process of being
4571 repaired or not in good condition. The library may wish to set this
4572 to "Don't allow" if they were concerned about their patrons not
4573 receiving the item in a timely manner or at all (if it is determined
4574 that the item is beyond repair). Setting it to "Allow" would allow a
4575 patron to place a hold on an item and therefore receive it as soon as
4576 it becomes available.
4578 .. _allowholdsonpatronspossessions-label:

4585 Asks: \_\_\_\_ a patron to place a hold on a record where the patron
4586 already has one or more items attached to that record checked out.
4596 - By setting to "Don't allow," you can prevent patrons from placing
4597 holds on items they already have out, thus preventing them from
4598 blocking anyone else from getting an item.

4623 Asks: \_\_\_ suspended holds to be automatically resumed by a set date.
4633 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then all suspended holds will be
4634 able to have a date at after which they automatically become
4635 unsuspended. If you have this preference set to 'Allow' you will also
4636 need the :ref:`Unsuspend Holds` cron job running.

4654 - Allow to mark items as lost
4656 - Allow to mark items as lost and notify the patron
4658 - Do not allow to mark items as lot
4662 - This preference lets you choose whether the staff can mark items
4663 as lost directly from the 'Holds to pull' list if they can't
4664 find the item on the shelf.

4673 Asks: \_\_\_ a user from one library to place a hold on an item from
4678 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether patrons
4679 can place holds on items from other branches. If the preference is
4680 set to "Allow" patrons can place such holds, if it is set to "Don't
4681 allow" they cannot. This is an important setting because it
4682 determines if users can use Koha to request items from another
4683 branch. If the library is sharing an installation of Koha with other
4684 independent libraries which do not wish to allow interlibrary
4685 borrowing it is recommended that this parameter be set to "Don't
4692 - Don't allow (with :ref:`IndependentBranches`)

4701 Asks: Confirm future hold requests (starting no later than \_\_\_ days
4702 from now) at checkin time.
4706 - When confirming a hold at checkin time, the number of days in this
4707 preference is taken into account when deciding which holds to show
4708 alerts for. This preference does not interfere with renewing,
4709 checking out or transferring a book.
4713 This number of days will be used too in calculating the default end
4714 date for the Holds to pull-report. But it does not interfere with
4715 issuing, renewing or transferring books.
4719 This preference is only looked at if you're allowing hold dates in

4793 whenever a hold request is placed.
4803 - This preference enables Koha to email the library staff whenever a
4804 patron requests an item to be held. While this function will
4805 immediately alert the librarian to the patron's need, it is extremely
4806 impractical in most library settings. In most libraries the hold
4807 lists are monitored and maintained from a separate interface. That
4808 said, many libraries that allow on shelf holds prefer to have this
4809 preference turned on so that they are alerted to pull an item from

5102 the option to release the unclaimed hold which then may be returned

5149 HoldsQueueSkipClosed Values:
5155 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Values:
5159 - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default Koha will
5160 randomize all libraries, otherwise it will randomize the libraries
5165 - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default then this will
5166 use all of your branches in alphabetical order, otherwise it will
5167 use the branches in the order that you entered them in the
5168 StaticHoldsQueueWeight preference.
5172 - These preferences control how the :ref:`Holds Queue
5173 report <holds-queue-label>` is generated using :ref:`a cron
5174 job <cron-holds-queue-report-label>`.
5176 If you do not want all of your libraries to participate in the
5177 on-shelf holds fulfillment process, you should list the the libraries
5178 that \*do\* participate in the process here by inputting all the
5179 participating library's branchcodes, separated by commas ( e.g.
5180 "MPL,CPL,SPL,BML" etc. ).
5182 By default, the holds queue will be generated such that the system
5183 will first attempt to hold fulfillment using items already at the
5184 pickup library if possible. If there are no items available at the
5185 pickup library to fill a hold, build\_holds\_queue.pl will then use
5186 the list of libraries defined in StaticHoldsQueueWeight. If
5187 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight is disabled ( which it is by default ), the
5188 script will assign fulfillment requests in the order the branches are
5189 placed in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight system preference.
5191 For example, if your system has three libraries, of varying sizes (
5192 small, medium and large ) and you want the burden of holds
5193 fulfillment to be on larger libraries before smaller libraries, you
5194 would want StaticHoldsQueueWeight to look something like

5265 Asks: \_\_\_ items when cancelling all waiting holds.
5275 - When TransferWhenCancelAllWaitingHolds is set to "Don't transfer", no
5276 branch transfer records are created. Koha will not allow the holds to
5277 be transferred, because that would orphan the items at the library
5278 where the holds were awaiting pickup, without any further instruction
5279 to staff as to what items are at the library or where they need to
5280 go. When that system preference set to "Transfer", branch transfers
5281 are created, so the holds may be cancelled.

5392 Asks: \_\_\_ the automatic redirection to another patron when a patron
5393 barcode is scanned instead of a book. This should not be enabled if you
5394 have overlapping patron and book barcodes.
5404 - Enabling this system preference allows staff to scan a patron barcode instead
5405 of an item barcode in the checkout box to switch patron records.
5407 .. _circautocompl-label:
5410 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
5414 Asks: \_\_\_ to automatically fill in the member when entering a patron
5415 search on the circulation screen.
5419 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether
5420 auto-completion of fields is enabled or disabled for the circulation
5421 input field. Setting it to "Try" would enable a staff member to begin
5422 typing a name or other value into the field and have a menu pop up
5423 with suggestions for completing it. Setting it to "Don't try" would
5424 disable this feature. This preference can make staff members' jobs

5457 need for the librarian to click the print button to generate a
5458 checkout receipt for the patron they're checking out to. If the
5459 preference is set to clear the screen then "checking out" an empty
5460 barcode will clear the screen of the patron you were last working

5541 - Koha's overdue report shows you all of the overdue items in your
5542 library system. If you have a large library system you'll want to set
5543 this preference to 'Require' to force those running the report to
5544 first limit the data generated to a branch, date range, patron
5545 category or other such filter. Requiring that the report be filtered
5546 before it's run prevents your staff from running a system heavy
5547 report and slowing down other operations in the system.
5557 .. _finenotifyatcheckin-label:
5560 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
5562 Default: Don't notify
5564 Asks: \_\_\_ librarians of overdue fines on the items they are checking
5575 - With this preference set to 'Notify' all books that have overdue
5576 fines owed on them will pop up a warning when checking them in. This
5577 warning will need to acknowledged before you can continue checking
5578 items in. With this preference set to 'Don't notify,^ you will still
5579 see fines owed on the patron record, you just won't have an
5580 additional notification at check in.

5608 entered as a barcode on the checkout page does not turn up any results

5622 barcode. Enabling this preference will do a keyword search of Koha to
5623 find the item you're trying to check out. You can use the call
5624 number, barcode, part of the title or anything you'd enter in the
5625 keyword search when this preference is enabled and Koha will ask you
5626 which item you're trying to check out.
5630 While you're not searching by barcode a barcode is required on every

5844 - Koha can track the number of times and item is checked out and store
5845 that on the item record in the database. This information is not
5846 stored by default. Setting this preference to 'Do' will tell Koha to
5847 track that info everytime the item is checked out in real time.

8727 stylesheet as a linked stylesheet alongside the OPAC's default CSS
8728 files. This method is preferable because linked stylesheets are

8730 the user's browser will not have to re-download the stylesheet,
8731 instead using the copy in the browser's cache.

11405 - This preference allows patrons to view what is located on the shelf
11406 near the item they looked up. The shelf browser option appears on the
11407 details page to the right of each items' call number. Clicking the
11408 'Browse Shelf' link allows for a virtual shelf browsing experience
11409 via the OPAC and lets patrons see other books that may relate to
11410 their search and items that sit on the shelf near the item they are

12430 with the PrivacyPolicyURL setting.
12442 - This system preference enables a GDPR consent form to appear on the OPAC when
12443 a patron attempts to login. If this preference is set as Enforced then when a
12444 patron attempts to log into the OPAC a GDPR consent form be presented to them.
12445 The patron will have to provide consent to the library's GDPR policy before

12539 - When this preference is set to include the search engine indexer will
12540 insert *see from* headings from authority records into bibliographic
12541 records when indexing, so that a search on an obsolete term will turn
12542 up relevant records. For example when you search for cookery (the old
12543 term) you get titles with the heading of cooking (the new term).

12590 additional characters to be added to the end of a search string. When
12591 set to "automatically" the search string automatically ends with a
12592 wildcard function. For example, a search for the word "invent" with
12593 auto truncation enabled will also retrieve results for inventor,
12594 invention, inventory, etc. If you don't want this to happen
12595 automatically you can still be perform wildcard searches manually by
12596 adding an asterisk (\*). Typing "invent\*" even with auto truncation
12597 disabled will retrieve the same inventor, invention, inventory
12598 results. Auto truncation bypasses the necessity to type long search
12599 strings in their entirety.
12601 .. _queryfuzzy-label:

12720 opac-search.pl?q=(su,complete-subfield:%22Web%20sites%22)%20and%20(su,complete-subfield:%22Design.%22))
12724 - When TraceSubjectSubdivisions is set to "Include," if you click on a
12725 subject with subdivisions (subfields other than 'a') they will be
12726 searched along with the subject heading (subfield 'a'). To have only

12859 :ref:`maxRecordsForFacets` preference. Showing
12860 these numbers can potentially effect the performance of your
12861 searching, so test your system with different values for this

14283 modify / add authorities. If a record comes from the Sudoc (so 009 is
14284 filled with an integer), at the OPAC you will see "Author: Idref" if
14285 a 7..$3 (unimarc author) if filled with a ppn. On clicking on the

14335 repository, and it will be instantly available for other libraries to copy.
14337 - All content shared with Mana KB is shared under the CC0 license, meaning
14338 that there is no (zero) copyright. Anyone using Mana KB can copy, reuse
14339 and change (their copy of) your content. Read more on CC0 on the `Creative

14387 .. _oai-pmh-pref-label:
14390 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
14394 Asks: \_\_\_ Koha's OAI-PMH server.
14404 - Once enabled you can visit http://YOURKOHACATALOG/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl
14405 to see your file. For the Open Archives Initiative-Protocol for
14406 Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) there are two groups of 'participants':
14407 Data Providers and Service Providers. Data Providers (open archives,
14408 repositories) provide free access to metadata, and may, but do not
14409 necessarily, offer free access to full texts or other resources.
14410 OAI-PMH provides an easy to implement, low barrier solution for Data
14411 Providers. Service Providers use the OAI interfaces of the Data
14412 Providers to harvest and store metadata. Note that this means that
14413 there are no live search requests to the Data Providers; rather,
14414 services are based on the harvested data via OAI-PMH. Koha at present
14415 can only act as a Data Provider. It can not harvest from other
14416 repositories. The biggest stumbling block to having Koha harvest from
14417 other repositories is that MARC is the only metadata format that Koha
14418 indexes natively. Visit
14419 http://www.oaforum.org/tutorial/english/page3.htm for diagrams of how
