3 Global system preferences
4 =========================
6 .. _global-system-preferences-label:
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

65 .. _acquisitions-policy-label:
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`
137 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
139 Asks: Upon receiving items, update their subfields if they were created
140 when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="foo bar"). \_\_\_
144 - This preference allows you to set default values for items that you
145 receive via acquisitions. Enter the data as subfield=value and split
146 your values with a bar ( \| ). For example you can remove the Ordered
147 status on the item automatically when you receive it just by entering
148 7=0 in this preference. That will set the Not for Loan status
149 (subfield 7) to 0 which is available.
151 .. _acqviewbaskets-label:
154 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
156 Default: created by staff member
158 Asks: Show baskets \_\_\_
162 - created by staff member
164 - from staff member's branch
166 - in system, regardless of owner
170 - When in acquisitions this preference allows you to control whose
171 baskets you can see when looking at a vendor. The default value of
172 'created by staff member' makes it so that you only see the baskets
173 you created. Choosing to see baskets 'from staff member's branch'
174 will show you the baskets created by anyone at the branch you're
175 logged in at. Finally, you can choose to set this preference to show
176 you all baskets regardless of who created it ('in system, regardless
177 of owner). Regardless of which value you choose for this preference,
178 superlibrarians can see all baskets created in the system.

224 Asks: \_\_\_ blind copy (BCC) to logged in user when sending serial or
225 acquisitions claims notices.
235 - When filing a claim in the :ref:`Claim Late Serials` or
236 Acquisitions module this preference will allow for
237 the sending of a copy of the email to the librarian.
239 .. _currencyformat-label:

244 Default: 360,000.00 (US)
246 Asks: Display currencies using the following format \_\_\_
261 Asks: The default tax rate is \_\_\_
265 - This preference will allow the library to define a default Goods and
266 Services Tax rate. The default of value of 0 will disable this
271 Enter this value as a number (.06) versus a percent (6%).
273 .. _marcfieldstoorder-label:
276 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
278 Asks: Set the mapping values for a new order line created from a MARC
279 record in a staged file.
283 - This preference includes MARC fields to check for order information
284 to use when you are trying to :ref:`Order from a staged file` in
285 acquisitions. You can use the following fields: price, quantity,
286 budget\_code, discount, sort1, sort2.
296 .. _marcitemfieldstoorder-label:
298 MarcItemFieldsToOrder
299 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
301 Asks: Set the mapping values for new item records created from a MARC record
306 - This preference automatically generates items in Koha with populated
307 information based on a 9XX field and subfield. You can use the following
308 fields: homebranch, holdingbranch, itype, nonpublic_note, public_note, loc,
309 ccode, notforloan, uri, copyno, price, replacementprice and itemcallnumber.
310 Special fields: quantity and budget_code
321 .. _uniqueitemfields-label:
324 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
328 Asks:\_\_\_ (space-separated list of fields that should be unique for
329 items, must be valid SQL fields of
330 `items <http://schema.koha-community.org/tables/items.html>`__ table)
334 - If this preference is left blank when adding items in acquisitions
335 there will be no check for uniqueness. This means that a duplicate
336 barcode can be created in acquisitions which will cause errors later
337 when checking items in and out.
342 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
344 .. _orderpdfformat-label:
347 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
349 Default: pdfformat::layout2pages

546 - lots of - will show as much information as possible
548 - no - will only show basic error messages
550 - some - will show only some of the information available
554 - This preference determines how much information will be sent to the
555 user's screen when the system encounters an error. The most detail
556 will be sent when the value level is set at 2, some detail will be
557 sent when the value is set at 1, and only a basic error message will
558 display when the value is set at 0. This setting is especially
559 important when a system is new and the administration is interested
560 in working out the bugs (errors or problems) quickly. Having detailed
561 error messages makes quick fixes more likely in problem areas.
563 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarycircrules-label:
565 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryCircRules
566 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
568 Default: all libraries
570 Asks: When editing circulation rules show \_\_\_ the rules by default.
576 - logged in library's
580 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
581 found at the top of the :ref:`Circulation and Fine
584 .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarynoticesslips-label:
586 DefaultToLoggedInLibraryNoticesSlips
587 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
589 Default: all libraries
591 Asks: When editing notices and slips show the \_\_\_ notices and slips
598 - logged in library's
602 - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down
603 found at the top of the :ref:`Notices & Slips` tool.
605 .. _defaulttologgedinlibraryoverduetriggers-label:

653 separate data. In many cases you will be able to change this option
654 when exporting if you'd like.
656 .. _kohaadminemailaddress-label:
658 KohaAdminEmailAddress
659 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
661 This is the default 'From' address for emails unless there is one for
662 the particular branch, and is referred to when an internal error occurs.
664 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address for the administrator of Koha.
668 - This preference allows one email address to be used in warning
669 messages set to the OPAC. If no email address is set for the branch
670 this address will receive messages from patrons regarding
671 modification requests, purchase suggestions, and questions or
672 information regarding overdue notices. It is recommended that a email
673 address that can be accessed by multiple staff members be used for
674 this purpose so that if one librarian is out the others can address
675 these requests. This email address can be changed when needed.
677 .. _noitemtypeimages-label:
680 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
684 Asks: \_\_\_ itemtype icons in the catalog.
694 - This preference allows the system administrator to determine if users
695 will be able to set and see an item type icon
696 the catalog on both the OPAC and the Staff Client. The images will
697 display in both the OPAC and the Staff Client/Intranet. If images of
698 item types are disabled, text labels for item types will still appear
699 in the OPAC and Staff Client.
701 .. _replytodefault-label:
704 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
706 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address that will be set as the replyto in
711 - By default replies to notice emails will go to the `library email
712 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
713 email address for all replies to notices you can do that here.
715 .. _returnpathdefault-label:
718 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
720 Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address set as the return path, if you
721 leave this empty the KohaAdminEmailAddress will be used.
725 - The return path is the email address that bounces will be delivered
726 to. By default bounced notices will go to the `library email
727 address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default
728 email address for bounces to go to then fill in this preference.
730 .. _virtualshelves-label:
733 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
737 Asks: \_\_\_ staff and patrons to create and view saved lists of books.
747 - This preference controls whether the lists functionality will be
748 available in the staff client and OPAC. If this is set to "Don't
749 allow" then no one will be able to save items to public or private
752 .. _login-options-label:
755 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
757 These preferences are related to logging into your Koha system
759 .. _autolocation-label:
762 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
764 Default: Don't require
766 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to log in from a computer in the IP address range
767 specified by their library (if any).
769 - Set IP address range in the library administration area
771 - *Get there:* More > Administration > Basic Parameters > :ref:`Libraries & Groups`
781 - This preference protects the system by blocking unauthorized users
782 from accessing the staff client program and settings. Authorized and
783 unauthorized users are determined by their computer's IP addresses.
784 When the preference is set to 'Require', IP authorization is in
785 effect and unauthorized IP addresses will be blocked. This means that
786 staff cannot work from home unless their IP address has been
787 authorized. When set to 'Don't require', anyone with a staff client
788 login will have access no matter which IP address they are using.
790 .. _independentbranches-label:
793 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
795 Default: Don't prevent
797 Asks: \_\_\_ staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects
798 (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries.
808 - This preference should only be used by library systems which are
809 sharing a single Koha installation among multiple branches but are
810 considered independent organizations, meaning they do not share
811 material or patrons with other branches and do not plan to change
812 that in the future. If set to 'Prevent' it increases the security
813 between library branches by: prohibiting staff users from logging
814 into another branch from within the staff client, filtering out
815 patrons from patron searches who are not a part of the login branch
816 conducting the search, limiting the location choices to the login
817 branch when adding or modifying an item record, preventing users from
818 other branch locations from placing holds or checking out materials
819 from library branches other than their own, and preventing staff from
820 editing item records which belong to other library branches. All of
821 these security safeguards can be overridden only by the
822 superlibrarian, the highest level of privileges.
826 It is important that this value be set before going live and that it
829 .. _independentbranchespatronmodifications-label:
831 IndependentBranchesPatronModifications
832 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
836 Asks: Prevent staff (but not superlibrarians) from viewing and
837 approving/denying patron modification requests for patrons
838 belonging to other libraries. \_\_\_
846 .. _sessionrestrictionbyip-label:
848 SessionRestrictionByIP
849 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
853 Asks: \_\_\_ check for change in remote IP address for session security.
854 Disable only when remote IP address changes frequently.
864 - When this preference is set to 'Enable' Koha will log you out of the
865 staff client if your IP address changes as a security measure. For
866 some systems the IP address changes frequently so you'll want to set
867 this preference to 'Disable' to prevent Koha from logging you out of
868 the staff client every time that happens.
872 This is meant to help those whose IP address changes several times
873 during the day, setting this preference to 'Disable' is not
874 recommended otherwise because it is removing important security
875 features from your staff client.
877 .. _sessionstorage-label:
880 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
882 Default: in the MySQL database
884 Asks: Store login session information \_\_\_
890 - in the MySQL database
892 - in the PostgreSQL database
896 PostgreSQL is not yet supported
900 - This preference allows administrators to choose what format session
901 data is stored in during web sessions.
906 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
910 Asks: Automatically log out users after \_\_\_ seconds of inactivity.
914 - This preference sets the length of time the Staff Client or OPAC
915 accounts can be left inactive before re-logging in is necessary. The
916 value of this preference is in seconds. At this time, the amount of
917 time before a session times out must be the same for both the Staff

1184 Asks: When updating biblio records from an attached authority record ("merging"),
1185 handle subfields of relevant biblio record fields in \_\_\_ mode. In strict mode
1186 subfields that are not found in the authority record, are deleted. Loose mode
1187 will keep them. Loose mode is the historical behavior and still the default.
1195 .. _autocreateauthorities-label:
1197 AutoCreateAuthorities
1198 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1200 Default: do not generate
1202 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ authority records that are missing.
1212 `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ must be set to
1213 "allow" for this to have any effect
1217 - When this and `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ are
1218 both turned on, automatically create authority records for headings
1219 that don't have any authority link when cataloging. When
1220 BiblioAddsAuthorities is on and AutoCreateAuthorities is turned off,
1221 do not automatically generate authority records, but allow the user
1222 to enter headings that don't match an existing authority. When
1223 BiblioAddsAuthorities is off, this has no effect.
1225 .. _biblioaddsauthorities-label:
1227 BiblioAddsAuthorities
1228 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1232 Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ them to automatically create new
1233 authority records if needed, rather than having to reference existing
1240 - This setting allows you to type values in the fields controlled by
1241 authorities and then adds a new authority if one does not exist
1245 - This setting will lock the authority controlled fields, forcing
1246 you to search for an authority versus allowing you to type the
1247 information in yourself.

1251 MARCAuthorityControlField008
1252 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1254 Default: \|\| aca\|\|aabn \| a\|a d
1256 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of MARC21 authority
1257 control field 008 position 06-39 (fixed length data elements).
1261 Do not include the date (position 00-05) in this preference, Koha
1262 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1267 - This preference controls the default value in the 008 field on
1268 Authority records. It does not effect bibliographic records.

1278 100 position (fixed length data elements).
1282 Do not include the date (position 00-07) in this preference, Koha
1283 will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in
1288 - This preference controls the default value in the 100 field on
1289 Authority records cataloged in UNIMARC. It does not effect
1290 bibliographic records.
1292 .. _useauthoritiesfortracings-label:
1294 UseAuthoritiesForTracings
1295 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1299 Asks: \_\_\_ authority record numbers instead of text strings for
1300 searches from subject tracings.
1306 - Search links look for subject/author keywords (example:
1307 opac-search.pl?q=su:Business%20networks)
1311 - Search links look for an authority record (example:
1312 opac-search.pl?q=an:354)
1316 - For libraries that have authority files, they may want to make it so
1317 that when a link to an authorized subject or author is clicked on the
1318 OPAC or staff client it takes the searcher only to a list of results
1319 with that authority record. Most libraries do not have complete
1320 authority files and so setting this preference to 'Don't use' will
1321 allow searchers to click on links to authors and subject headings and
1322 perform a keyword search against those fields, finding all possible
1323 relevant results instead.
1328 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1330 These preferences will control how Koha links bibliographic records to
1331 authority records. All bibliographic records added to Koha after these
1332 preferences are set will link automatically to authority records, for
1333 records added before these preferences are set there is a script
1334 (misc/link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl) that your system administrator can
1335 run to link records together.
1337 .. _catalogmodulerelink-label:
1340 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1344 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically relink headings that have previously been
1345 linked when saving records in the cataloging module.
1355 - Longtime users of Koha don't expect the authority and bib records to
1356 link consistently. This preference makes it possible to disable
1357 authority relinking in the cataloging module only (i.e. relinking is
1358 still possible if link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl is run). Note that
1359 though the default behavior matches the previous behavior of Koha
1360 (retaining links to outdated authority records), it does not match
1361 the intended behavior (updating biblio/authority link after
1362 bibliographic record is edited). Libraries that want the intended
1363 behavior of authority control rather than the way Koha used to handle
1364 linking should set CatalogModuleRelink to 'Do'. Once setting this to
1365 'Do' the following preferences can also be set.
1367 .. _linkerkeepstale-label:
1370 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1374 Asks: \_\_\_ keep existing links to authority records for headings where
1375 the linker is unable to find a match.
1385 - When set to 'Do', the linker will never remove a link to an authority
1386 record, though, depending on the value of
1387 :ref:`LinkerRelink`, it may change the link.
1389 .. _linkermodule-label:
1392 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1396 Asks: Use the \_\_\_ linker module for matching headings to authority
1403 - Retains Koha's previous behavior of only creating links when there
1404 is an exact match to one and only one authority record; if the
1405 :ref:`LinkerOptions` preference is set to
1406 'broader\_headings', it will try to link headings to authority
1407 records for broader headings by removing subfields from the end of

1413 heading, even if there is more than one authority record that
1418 - Creates a link to the last authority record that matches a given
1419 heading, even if there is more than one record that matches
1423 - This preference tells Koha which match to use when searching for
1424 authority matches when saving a record.
1426 .. _linkeroptions-label:

1431 Asks: Set the following options for the authority linker \_\_\_
1435 This feature is experimental and shouldn't be used in a production
1436 environment until further expanded upon.
1440 - This is a pipe separated (\|) list of options. At the moment, the
1441 only option available is "broader\_headings." With this option set to
1442 "broader\_headings", the linker will try to match the following
1447 =600 10$aCamins-Esakov, Jared$xCoin collections$vCatalogs$vEarly works to 1800.
1449 First: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs--Early works

1454 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections
1456 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared (matches! if a previous attempt had
1457 matched, it would not have tried this)
1459 .. _linkerrelink-label:
1462 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1466 Asks: \_\_\_ relink headings that have previously been linked to
1477 - When set to 'Do', the linker will confirm the links for headings that
1478 have previously been linked to an authority record when it runs,
1479 correcting any incorrect links it may find. When set to 'Do not', any
1480 heading with an existing link will be ignored, even if the existing
1481 link is invalid or incorrect.

1576 - This setting determines the bibliographic record display when
1577 searching the catalog on the staff client. This setting does not
1578 affect the display in the OPAC which is changed using the
1579 :ref:`BiblioDefaultView` preference under the OPAC
1580 preference tab. This setting changes the look of the record when
1581 first displayed. The MARC and ISBD views can still be seen by

1596 - This determines how the ISBD information will display in the staff
1597 client. Elements in the list can be reordered to produce a different
1598 ISBD view. ISBD, the International Standard Bibliographic
1599 Description, was first introduced by IFLA (International Federation
1600 of Library Associations) in 1969 in order to provide guidelines for
1601 descriptive cataloging. The purpose of ISBD is to aid the
1602 international exchange of bibliographic records for a variety of

1622 the OPAC and Staff Client
1626 .. _mergereportfields-label:
1629 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1631 Asks: \_\_\_ fields to display for deleted records after merge
1635 - When merging records together you can receive a report of the merge
1636 process once it's done, this preference lets you set the default
1637 values for this report.
1639 Example: '001,245ab,600' displays:
1643 - subfields a and b of fields 245
1645 - all subfields of fields 600
1647 .. _notesblacklist-label:
1650 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1652 Asks: Don't show these \_\_\_ note fields in title notes separator (OPAC
1653 record details) and in the description separator (Staff client record
1658 - This preference lets you define which of your note fields are hidden
1659 from the title notes (OPAC) and descriptions (Staff) tabs. Enter the
1660 values as a comma separated list. For example to hide the local note
1661 and the bibliography note in MARC21 enter 504, 590.

1666 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1668 OpacSuppression Default: Don't hide
1670 Asks: \_\_\_ items marked as suppressed from OPAC search results.

1674 the redirect page for suppressed biblios \_\_\_.
1676 OpacSuppression Values:
1680 - Will show records in OPAC search results if they are marked
1685 - Will not show records in OPAC search results if they're marked as
1688 OpacSuppressionRedirect Values:
1690 - an explanatory page ('This record is blocked').
1692 - the 404 error page ('Not found').
1696 - These preferences control hiding of bibliographic records from
1697 display in the OPAC. Each bibliographic record you want to hide from
1698 the OPAC simply needs to have the value "1" in the field mapped with
1699 Suppress index (942$n field in MARC21, no official field in UNIMARC).
1700 The indexer then hides it from display in OPAC but will still display
1701 it in the Staff Client. If you want to further control suppression
1702 you can set an IP address range to still show suppressed items to.
1703 Define a range like 192.168.. If you don't want to limit suppression
1704 in this way, leave the IP field blank. You can also decide what the
1705 patrons will see in the OPAC when a title is suppressed by setting
1706 the OpacSuppressionRedirect and OpacSuppressionMessage preferences.
1707 You can either show the patron a 404 page if they try to see a
1708 suppressed record or you can create a custom page by entering the
1709 HTML in the OpacSuppressionMessage part of this preference.
1713 An :ref:`authorized value <authorized-values-label>` for the MARC21 942$n
1714 field (or the equivalent UNIMARC field) should be set to
1715 eliminate errors. One example would be to create an authorized
1716 value titled SUPPRESS with a value of 0 for don't suppress and 1
1721 If this preference is set to 'hide' and you have the 942n field set
1722 to 1, it will hide the entire bib record - not just an individual
1727 Suppressed records will show a note in the staff client indicating
1728 that they are suppressed from view in the OPAC.

1801 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
1802 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a title
1807 - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues'
1808 and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a
1809 control number (MARC field 001) search
1813 Unless you are going in and manually changing 773$w to match your
1814 rigorously-defined bibliographic relationships, you should set this
1815 preference to "Don't use" and instead set
1816 :ref:`EasyAnalyticalRecords` to "Display"
1820 - If you have a serial called "Journal of Interesting Things" which has
1821 a separate record from when it was called "Transactions of the
1822 Interesting Stuff Society," you could add linking fields to indicate
1823 the relationship between the two records. UseControlNumber allows you
1824 to use your local accession numbers for those links. In MARC21, the
1825 relevant sections of the two records might look like this:
1830 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society.
1831 =245 10$aTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.
1832 =785 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tJournal of Interesting Things.$w12346

1839 With UseControlNumber set to 'Use', the 78x links will use the

1918 - This preference allows you to choose to alter the ISBN matching rule
1919 used when staging records for import to be more aggressive. This
1920 means that all text will be stripped from the ISBN field so that a
1921 pure number match is possible. If this preference is set to "Don't"

2022 - An analytic entry in a catalog is one that describes a part of a
2023 larger work that is also described in the catalog. In bibliographic
2024 cataloging, analytic entries may be made for chapters in books or
2025 special issues of articles in periodicals. In archival cataloging,
2026 analytic entries may be made for series or items within a collection.

2042 Asks: Display MARC subfield \_\_\_ as holdings information for records
2043 that do not have items, with the subfields separated by \_\_\_.
2047 - Sometimes libraries migrate to Koha with their holding info in the
2048 852 field (OCLC holdings information field) and choose not to
2049 transfer that information into the 952 (Koha holdings information
2050 field) because they don't plan on circulating those items. For those
2051 libraries or other libraries that have data in the 852 fields of
2052 their records that they want to display, these preferences let you
2053 choose to display holdings info from a field other than the 952
2054 field. The AlternateHoldingsField preference can contain multiple
2055 subfields to look in; for instance 852abhi would look in 852
2056 subfields a, b, h, and i.

2081 - incremental EAN-13 barcodes
2083 - not generated automatically
2087 - This setting is for libraries wishing to generate barcodes from
2088 within Koha (as opposed to scanning in pre-printed barcodes or
2089 manually assigning them). The default behavior makes it so that when
2090 you click in the barcode field (952$p in MARC21) it will populate
2091 with the automatic barcode you have chosen. If you would rather it
2092 only enter an automatic barcode when you click on the plugin (the ...
2093 to the right of the field) you can change the plugin used for that
2094 field in the framework. Set the plugin for 952$p (if using MARC21 or
2095 equivalent field mapped to items.barcode in your local MARC format)
2096 for your frameworks to barcode\_manual.pl instead of barcode.pl.

2154 (for determining circulation and fines rules, etc).
2164 - This preference determines whether the item type Koha uses for
2165 issuing rules will be an attribute of the bibliographic record or the
2166 item record. Most libraries refer to the item record for item types.
2167 It also determines if the item type icon appears on the OPAC search
2168 results. If you have the preference set to 'biblio record' then Koha
2169 displays the item type icon on the search results to the left of the

2685 - If this preference is set to "Do" and the :ref:`fines cron
2686 job <fines-label>` is off then Koha will calculate fines only
2687 when items are returned. If you have the fines cron job on and this
2688 preference set to "Do" then this preference will calculate fines
2689 based on the cron (usually run nightly) and then again when you check
2690 the item in. This option is best for those who are doing hourly
2691 loans. If this preference is set to "Don't" then fines will only be
2692 accrued if the fines cron job is running.
2696 If you are doing hourly loans then you should have this set to 'Do'.

2732 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2734 Asks: Restrict patrons with the following target audience values from
2735 checking out inappropriate materials: \_\_\_
2739 - This preference defines certain keywords that will trigger Koha to
2740 restrict checkout based on age. These restrictions can be overridden
2741 by the :ref:`AgeRestrictionOverride`
2742 preference. Enter in this field a series of keywords separated by bar
2743 (\|) with no spaces. For example PG\|R\|E\|EC\|Age\| will look for PG
2744 followed by an age number, R folllowed by an age number, Age followed
2745 by an age number, and so on. These values can appear in any MARC
2746 field, but Library of Congress recommends the 521$a (Target Audience
2747 Note). Whatever field you decide to use you must map the word
2748 agerestriction in the biblioitems table to that field in the :ref:`Koha to
2749 MARC Mapping <koha-to-marc-mapping-label>`. When cataloging you can enter
2750 values like PG 13 or E 10 in the 521$a and Koha will then notify
2751 circulation librarians that the material may not be recommended for
2752 the patron based on their age.
2756 You must map the word agerestriction in the biblioitems table to
2757 the MARC field where this information will appear via the :ref:`Koha

2763 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2765 Default: Don't allow
2767 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to check out an item with age restriction.
2781 - When the :ref:`AgeRestrictionMarker` preference
2782 is set, Koha will try to warn circulation librarians before checking
2783 out an item that might have an age restriction listed in the MARC
2784 record. This preference asks if you would like the staff to be able
2785 to still check out these items to patrons under the age limit.
2787 .. _allfinesneedoverride-label:
2789 AllFinesNeedOverride
2790 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2794 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override all fines, even fines less than
2795 :ref:`noissuescharge`.
2805 - This preference let's you decide if you want to always be warned that
2806 the patron has fines when checking out. If you have it set to
2807 'Require' then no matter how much money the patron owes a message
2808 will pop up warning you that the patron owes money.
2810 .. _allowfineoverride-label:

2815 Default: Don't allow
2817 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override and check out items to patrons
2818 who have more than :ref:`noissuescharge` in fines.
2828 - This preference lets you decide if you staff can check out to patrons
2829 who owe more money than you usually let them carry on their account.
2830 If set to 'Allow' staff will be warned that the patrons owes money,
2831 but it won't stop the staff from checking out to the patron.
2833 .. _allowitemsonholdcheckout-label:
2835 AllowItemsOnHoldCheckout
2836 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2838 Default: Don't allow
2840 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else. If allowed do
2841 not generate RESERVE\_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This allows self
2842 checkouts for those items.
2852 This system preference relates only to SIP based self checkout, not
2853 Koha's web based self checkout.
2857 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
2858 your external self check machine to check out a book to themselves
2859 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
2860 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
2861 else set this preference to "Don't allow."
2863 .. _allowitemsonholdcheckoutsco-label:
2865 AllowItemsOnHoldCheckoutSCO
2866 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2868 Default: Don't allow
2870 Asks: \_\_\_ checkouts of items reserved to someone else in the SCO module.
2871 If allowed do not generate RESERVE_WAITING and RESERVED warning. This
2872 allows self checkouts for those items.
2882 This system preference relates only to Koha's web based self checkout.
2886 - When this preference is set to 'Allow' patrons will be able to use
2887 Koha's web based self checkout to check out a book to themselves
2888 even if it's on hold for someone else. If you would like Koha to
2889 prevent people from checking out books that are on hold for someone
2890 else set this preference to "Don't allow".
2892 .. _allowmultipleissuesonabiblio-label:
2894 AllowMultipleIssuesOnABiblio
2895 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2899 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons to check out multiple items from the same record.
2909 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then patrons will be able to
2910 check out multiple copies of the same title at the same time. If it's
2911 set to "Don't allow" then patrons will only be allowed to check out
2912 one item attached to a record at a time. Regardless of the option
2913 chosen in this preference records with subscriptions attached will
2914 allow multiple check outs.
2918 This will only effect records without a subscription attached.
2920 .. _allownotforloanoverride-label:
2922 AllowNotForLoanOverride
2923 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2927 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items that are marked as
2938 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls the ability of
2939 staff (patrons will always be prevented from checking these items
2940 out) to check out items that are marked as "not for loan". Setting it
2941 to "Allow" would allow such items to be checked out, setting it to
2942 "Don't allow" would prevent this. This setting determines whether
2943 items meant to stay in the library, such as reference materials, and
2944 other library resources can be checked out by patrons.
2946 .. _allowrenewallimitoverride-label:
2948 AllowRenewalLimitOverride
2949 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2953 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to manually override the renewal limit and renew a
2954 checkout when it would go over the renewal limit.
2964 - This preference is a binary setting which controls the ability of
2965 staff to override the limits placed on the number of times an item
2966 can be renewed. Setting it to "Allow" would allow such limits to be
2967 overridden, setting it to "Don't allow" would prevent this. This is a
2968 preference in which if it is set to "allow" it would allow the
2969 library staff to use their judgment for overriding the renew limit
2970 for special cases, setting it to "Don't allow" prevents an
2971 opportunity for abuse by the library staff.
2973 .. _allowreturntobranch-label:
2976 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2978 Default: to any library
2980 Asks: Allow materials to be returned to \_\_\_

2987 - only the library the item is from.
2989 - only the library the item was checked out from.
2995 - This preference lets the library system decide how they will accept
2996 returns. Some systems allow for items to be returned to any library
2997 in the system (the default value of this preference) others want to
2998 limit item returns to only specific branches. This preference will
2999 allow you to limit item returns (checkins) to the branch(es) set in
3002 .. _allowtoomanyoverride-label:
3004 AllowTooManyOverride
3005 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3009 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override and check out items when the patron has
3010 reached the maximum number of allowed checkouts.
3024 - If this preference is set to "Allow" then staff all will be presented
3025 with an option to checkout more items to a patron than are normally
3026 allowed in the :ref:`Circulation and Fine Rules`. If
3027 this preference is set to "Don't allow" then no staff member will be
3028 able to check out more than the circulation limit.
3030 .. _automaticitemreturn-label:
3033 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3037 Asks: \_\_\_ automatically transfer items to their home branch when they
3048 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether an item
3049 is returned to its home branch automatically or not. If set to
3050 "Don't", the staff member checking an item in at a location other
3051 than the item's home branch will be asked whether the item will
3052 remain at the non-home branch (in which case the new location will be
3053 marked as a holding location) or returned. Setting it to "Do" will
3054 ensure that items checked in at a branch other than their home branch
3055 will be sent to that home branch.

3097 home library is used or holding library is used.
3099 - the library the patron is from
3101 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fine-rules-label>` will be
3102 determined the patron's home library
3104 - the library you are logged in at
3106 - The :ref:`circulation and fines policies <circulation-and-fine-rules-label>` will be
3107 determined by the library that checked the item out to the patron

3111 ConsiderOnSiteCheckoutsAsNormalCheckouts
3112 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3116 Asks: \_\_\_ on-site checkouts as normal checkouts. If enabled, the
3117 number of checkouts allowed will be normal checkouts + on-site
3118 checkouts. If disabled, both values will be checked separately.
3128 - This preference allows you to decide if checkouts that are
3129 :ref:`OnSiteCheckouts` are counted toward the total
3130 checkouts a patron can have. You can also set your :ref:`circulation and
3131 fine rules <circulation-and-fine-rules-label>` to allow only a certain number of
3132 normal and OnSite checkouts.

3153 DefaultLongOverdueLostValue & DefaultLongOverdueDays
3154 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3156 Asks: By default, set the LOST value of an item to \_\_\_ when the item
3157 has been overdue for more than \_\_\_ days.
3161 - These preferences are used when the :ref:`longoverdue cron
3162 job <long-overdues-label>` is called without the --lost parameter. It
3163 allows users to set the values of the :ref:`longoverdue
3164 cron <long-overdues-label>` without having to edit the crontab.
3165 Setting the values to 1 and 30 for example will mark the item with
3166 the `LOST authorized value <#lost>`__ of 1 after the item is 30 days

3195 - the library the item is from
3197 - This is equivalent to 'home library'
3199 - the library the item was checked out from
3201 - This is equivalent to 'holding library'
3205 - This preference does several things.
3207 - If :ref:`CircControl` is set to 'the library the item
3208 is from' then the :ref:`circulation and fines
3209 policies <circulation-and-fine-rules-label>` will be determined by the item's
3210 library where HomeOrHoldingBranch chooses if item's home library
3211 is used or holding library is used.
3213 - If :ref:`IndependentBranches` is set to
3214 'Prevent' then the value of this preference is used in figuring
3215 out if the item can be checked out. If the item's home library
3216 does not match the logged in library, the item cannot be checked
3217 out unless you are a :ref:`superlibrarian <patron-permissions-defined-label>`.
3221 It is not recommend that this setting be changed after initial setup
3222 of Koha because it will change the behavior of items already checked

3227 InProcessingToShelvingCart
3228 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3232 Asks: \_\_\_ items that have the location PROC to the location CART when
3233 they are checked in.
3243 - This preference is used to manage automatically changing item
3244 locations from processing (PROC) to the book cart (CART). A :ref:`cron
3245 job <in-processing/book-cart-label>` needs to be set to run at specified intervals
3246 to age items from CART to the permanent shelving location. (For
3247 example, an hourly cron entry of cart\_to\_shelf.pl --hours 3 where
3248 --hours is the amount of time an item should spend on the cart before
3249 aging to its permanent location.) More information can be found in
3250 the :ref:`related chapter <in-processing-/-book-cart-locations-label>` in this manual.
3254 If the :ref:`ReturnToShelvingCart` system

3282 - This option will just check the item out without notifying you
3283 that the item was marked lost.
3285 - require confirmation
3291 - This preference lets you define how library staff are notified that
3292 an item with a lost status is being checked out. This will help staff
3293 mark items as 'available' if you choose to 'display a message' or
3294 'require confirmation.^ If you choose to 'do nothing,^ there will be
3295 no notification that the item being checked out is marked as 'lost.^

3304 Asks: \_\_\_ patrons from checking out an item whose rental charge would
3305 take them over the limit.
3315 - This preference determines if a patron can check items out if there
3316 is an overdue fine on the account and any of the materials the patron
3317 wishes to check out will potentially tip the account balance over the
3318 maximum fines policy the library has in place.
3320 Example: Your library has a $5 limit set for 'fines' (ie, after
3321 incurring $5 in fines, a patron can no longer check out items). A patron
3322 comes to the desk with 5 items to check out (4 books and a video) The
3323 patron has $4 in charges already on their account. One of the videos has
3324 a rental charge of $1, therefore making the total fines on the patron's
3325 account suddenly $5 (the limit).

3346 are included when calculating the
3347 :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set to include then
3348 Koha will include all manual invoices when deciding if the patron
3349 owes too much money to check anything else out of the library. If
3350 it's set to Don't include then Koha will ignore all manual invoice
3351 charges when figuring out if the patron owes too much money to
3352 checkout additional materials.

3386 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3390 Asks: Prevent patrons from checking out books if they have more than
3391 \_\_\_ USD in fines.
3395 - This preference is the maximum amount of money owed to the library
3396 before the user is banned from borrowing more items. Using the
3397 :ref:`ManInvInNoissuesCharge` and
3398 :ref:`RentalsInNoissuesCharge` preferences
3399 you can control which types of charges are considered in this total.
3400 This also coincides with :ref:`maxoutstanding` that

3477 - This preference lets you check out items that are 'not for loan' to
3478 patrons. A checkbox is added to the checkout screen when this
3479 preference is set to 'Enable' labeled 'On-site checkout'. This allows
3480 you to track who's using items that are normally not for loan or are

3687 Asks: \_\_\_ rental charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge.
3697 - This preference lets you decide if rental charges are included when
3698 calculating the :ref:`noissuescharge`. If this is set
3699 to include then Koha will include all rental charges when deciding if
3700 the patron owes too much money to check anything else out of the
3701 library. If it's set to Don't include then Koha will ignore all
3702 rental charges when figuring out if the patron owes too much money to

3738 - This is preference may prevent a patron from having items checked out
3739 after their library card has expired. If this is set to "Require",
3740 then a due date of any checked out item can not be set for a date
3741 which falls after the patron's card expiration. If the setting is
3742 left "Don't require" then item check out dates may exceed the

3835 BranchTransferLimitsType Description:
3837 - This parameter is a binary setting which determines whether items are
3838 transferred according to item type or collection code. This value
3839 determines how the library manager is able to restrict what items can
3840 be transferred between the branches.

3857 - the calendar to skip all days the library is closed.
3861 - This preference controls how scheduled library closures affect the
3862 due date of a material. The 'the calendar to skip all days the
3863 library is closed' setting allows for a scheduled closure not to
3864 count as a day in the loan period, the 'circulation rules only'
3865 setting would not consider the scheduled closure at all, and 'the
3866 calendar to push the due date to the next open day' would only effect
3867 the due date if the day the item is due would fall specifically on
3872 - The library has put December 24th and 25th in as closures on the
3873 calendar. A book checked out by a patron has a due date of December
3874 25th according to the circulation and fine rules. If this preference
3875 is set to 'circulation rules only' then the item will remain due on
3876 the 25th. If the preference is set to 'the calendar to push the due
3877 date to the next open day' then the due date will be December 26th.
3878 If the preference is set to 'the calendar to skip all days the
3879 library is closed' then the due date will be pushed to the 27th of
3880 December to accommodate for the two closed days.
3882 The calendar is defined on a branch by branch basis. To learn more about

3893 Asks: \_\_\_ Transport Cost Matrix for calculating optimal holds filling
3904 - If the system is configured to use the :ref:`Transport cost
3905 matrix <transport-cost-matrix-label>` for filling holds, then when
3906 attempting to fill a hold, the system will search for the lowest cost
3907 branch, and attempt to fill the hold with an item from that branch
3908 first. Branches of equal cost will be selected from randomly. The
3909 branch or branches of the next highest cost shall be selected from
3910 only if all the branches in the previous group are unable to fill the

3967 during instances when the library is closed. Examples include
3968 holidays, library in-service days, etc. Choosing "not including the
3969 days the library is closed" setting will enable Koha to access its
3970 :ref:`Calendar` module and be considerate of dates when
3971 the library is closed. To make use of this setting the administrator
3972 must first access Koha's calendar and mark certain days as "holidays"

3986 Asks: \_\_\_ the grace period when calculating the fine for an overdue
3997 - This preference lets you control how Koha calculates fines when there
3998 is a grace period. If you choose to include the grace period when
3999 calculating fines then Koha will charge for the days in the grace
4000 period should the item be overdue more than those days. If you choose
4001 not to include the grace period then Koha will only charge for the
4002 days overdue after the grace period.

4094 Asks: \_\_\_ the replacement price when a patron loses an item.
4104 - This preference lets you tell Koha what to do with an item is marked
4105 lost. If you want Koha can 'Charge' the patron the replacement fee
4106 listed on the item they lost or it can do nothing in reference to the
4107 patron and just mark the item lost in the catalog.

4112 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4114 Default: Don't forgive
4116 Asks: \_\_\_ the fines on an item when it is lost.
4126 - This preference allows the library to decide if fines are charged in
4127 addition to the replacement fee when an item is marked as lost. If
4128 this preference is set to 'Forgive' then the patron won't be charged
4129 fines in addition to the replacement fee.

4169 AllowHoldPolicyOverride
4170 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4174 Asks: \_\_\_ staff to override hold policies when placing holds.
4184 - This preference is a binary setting which controls whether or not the
4185 library staff can override the circulation and fines rules as they
4186 pertain to the placement of holds. Setting this value to "Don't
4187 allow" will prevent anyone from overriding, setting it to "Allow"
4188 will allow it. This setting is important because it determines how
4189 strict the libraries rules for placing holds are. If this is set to
4190 "Allow", exceptions can be made for patrons who are otherwise
4191 normally in good standing with the library, but there is opportunity
4192 for the staff to abuse this function. If it is set to "Don't allow",
4193 no abuse of the system is possible, but it makes the system entirely
4194 inflexible in respect to holds.
4196 .. _allowholdsondamageditems-label:
4198 AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems
4199 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4203 Asks: \_\_\_ hold requests to be placed on damaged items.
4213 - This parameter is a binary setting which controls whether or not hold
4214 requests can be placed on items that are marked as "damaged" (items
4215 are marked as damaged by editing subfield 4 on the item record).
4216 Setting this value to "Don't allow" will prevent anyone from placing
4217 a hold on such items, setting it to "Allow" will allow it. This
4218 preference is important because it determines whether or not a patron
4219 can place a request for an item that might be in the process of being
4220 repaired or not in good condition. The library may wish to set this
4221 to "Don't allow" if they were concerned about their patrons not
4222 receiving the item in a timely manner or at all (if it is determined
4223 that the item is beyond repair). Setting it to "Allow" would allow a
4224 patron to place a hold on an item and therefore receive it as soon as
4225 it becomes available.

4234 Asks: \_\_\_\_ a patron to place a hold on a record where the patron
4235 already has one or more items attached to that record checked out.
4245 - By setting to "Don't allow," you can prevent patrons from placing
4246 holds on items they already have out, thus preventing them from
4247 blocking anyone else from getting an item.

4268 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4272 Asks: \_\_\_ suspended holds to be automatically resumed by a set date.
4282 - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then all suspended holds will be
4283 able to have a date at after which they automatically become
4284 unsuspended. If you have this preference set to 'Allow' you will also
4285 need the :ref:`Unsuspend Holds` cron job running.

4304 - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether patrons
4305 can place holds on items from other branches. If the preference is
4306 set to "Allow" patrons can place such holds, if it is set to "Don't
4307 allow" they cannot. This is an important setting because it
4308 determines if users can use Koha to request items from another
4309 branch. If the library is sharing an installation of Koha with other
4310 independent libraries which do not wish to allow interlibrary
4311 borrowing it is recommended that this parameter be set to "Don't

4327 Asks: Confirm future hold requests (starting no later than \_\_\_ days
4328 from now) at checkin time.
4332 - When confirming a hold at checkin time, the number of days in this
4333 preference is taken into account when deciding which holds to show
4334 alerts for. This preference does not interfere with renewing,
4335 checking out or transferring a book.
4339 This number of days will be used too in calculating the default end
4340 date for the Holds to pull-report. But it does not interfere with
4341 issuing, renewing or transferring books.
4345 This preference is only looked at if you're allowing hold dates in
4346 the future with :ref:`AllowHoldDateInFuture`

4429 - This preference enables Koha to email the library staff whenever a
4430 patron requests an item to be held. While this function will
4431 immediately alert the librarian to the patron's need, it is extremely
4432 impractical in most library settings. In most libraries the hold
4433 lists are monitored and maintained from a separate interface. That
4434 said, many libraries that allow on shelf holds prefer to have this

4666 - This preference (based on calendar days, not the :ref:`Koha holiday

4668 patron has on hold. After this expiration date the staff will have
4669 the option to release the unclaimed hold which then may be returned
4670 to the library shelf or issued to the next patron on the item's hold

4689 - Don't automatically
4693 - This preference refers to 'item specific' holds where the item is
4694 currently on the library shelf. This preference allows a library to
4695 decide whether an 'item specific' hold is marked as "Waiting" at the
4696 time the hold is placed or if the item will be marked as "Waiting"
4697 after the item is checked in. This preference will tell the patron

4706 StaticHoldsQueueWeight Default: 0
4708 HoldsQueueSkipClosed Default: open or closed
4710 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Default: in that order
4712 Asks: Satisfy holds using items from the libraries \_\_\_ (as
4713 branchcodes, separated by commas; if empty, uses all libraries) when
4714 they are \_\_\_ \_\_\_.
4716 HoldsQueueSkipClosed Values:
4722 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Values:
4726 - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default Koha will
4727 randomize all libraries, otherwise it will randomize the libraries
4732 - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default then this will
4733 use all of your branches in alphabetical order, otherwise it will
4734 use the branches in the order that you entered them in the
4735 StaticHoldsQueueWeight preference.
4739 - These preferences control how the :ref:`Holds Queue
4740 report <holds-queue-label>` is generated using :ref:`a cron
4741 job <holds-queue-label>`.
4743 If you do not want all of your libraries to participate in the
4744 on-shelf holds fulfillment process, you should list the the libraries
4745 that \*do\* participate in the process here by inputting all the
4746 participating library's branchcodes, separated by commas ( e.g.
4747 "MPL,CPL,SPL,BML" etc. ).
4749 By default, the holds queue will be generated such that the system
4750 will first attempt to hold fulfillment using items already at the
4751 pickup library if possible. If there are no items available at the
4752 pickup library to fill a hold, build\_holds\_queue.pl will then use
4753 the list of libraries defined in StaticHoldsQueueWeight. If
4754 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight is disabled ( which it is by default ), the
4755 script will assign fulfillment requests in the order the branches are
4756 placed in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight system preference.
4758 For example, if your system has three libraries, of varying sizes (
4759 small, medium and large ) and you want the burden of holds
4760 fulfillment to be on larger libraries before smaller libraries, you
4761 would want StaticHoldsQueueWeight to look something like
4764 If you want the burden of holds fulfillment to be spread out equally
4765 throughout your library system, simply enable
4766 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight. When this system preference is enabled,
4767 the order in which libraries will be requested to fulfill an on-shelf
4768 hold will be randomized each time the list is regenerated.
4770 Leaving StaticHoldsQueueWeight empty is contraindicated at this time.
4771 Doing so will cause the build\_holds\_queue script to ignore
4772 RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, causing the script to request hold
4773 fulfillment not randomly, but by alphabetical order.
4777 The :ref:`Transport Cost Matrix <transport-cost-matrix-label>` takes
4778 precedence in controlling where holds are filled from, if the matrix
4779 is not used then Koha checks the StaticHoldsQueueWeight. To use the
4780 Transport Cost Matrix simply set your
4781 :ref:`UseTransportCostMatrix` preference to

4847 - When TransferWhenCancelAllWaitingHolds is set to "Don't transfer", no
4848 branch transfer records are created. Koha will not allow the holds to
4849 be transferred, because that would orphan the items at the library
4850 where the holds were awaiting pickup, without any further instruction
4851 to staff as to what items are at the library or where they need to

4956 auto-completion of fields is enabled or disabled for the circulation
4957 input field. Setting it to "Try" would enable a staff member to begin
4958 typing a name or other value into the field and have a menu pop up

5112 fines owed on them will pop up a warning when checking them in. This
5113 warning will need to acknowledged before you can continue checking
5114 items in. With this preference set to 'Don't notify,^ you will still

5159 find the item you're trying to check out. You can use the call
5160 number, barcode, part of the title or anything you'd enter in the

8017 - Enabling this feature will slow OPAC search response times.
8021 - COinS stands for ContextObjects in Spans. COinS is a method to embed
8022 bibliographic metadata in the HTML code of web pages. This allows
8023 bibliographic software to publish machine-readable bibliographic
8024 items and client reference management software (such as Zotero) to
8025 retrieve bibliographic metadata. The metadata can also be sent to an
8026 OpenURL resolver. This allows, for instance, searching for a copy of

8192 - The preference can look for stylesheets in the template directory for
8193 your OPAC language, for instance: /koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/prog/en/css.
8194 If you upload a custom file, opac-mystyles.css to this directory, you
8195 can specify it by entering opac-mystyles.css in your
8196 opaccolorstylesheet system preference. This adds your custom
8197 stylesheet as a linked stylesheet alongside the OPAC's default CSS
8198 files. This method is preferable because linked stylesheets are
8199 cached by the user's browser, meaning upon repeat visits to your site
8200 the user's browser will not have to re-download the stylesheet,
8201 instead using the copy in the browser's cache.

8248 network share buttons and in your staff client when generating links
8249 to bib records in the OPAC.
8253 Do not include a trailing slash in the URL this will break links
8254 created using this URL. (example: http://www.google.com not

8259 This must be filled in with the URL of your public catalog for RSS,
8260 unAPI, and search plugins to work.
8264 This must be filled in with the URL of your public catalog to show

8352 valid MIME image extension (e.g., "jpg") or MIME image type (i.e.
8353 starting with "image/"), or the generic indicator "img" entered in
8354 the field. When all of the requirements are met, an image file will
8355 be displayed instead of the standard link text. Clicking on the image
8356 will open it in the same way as clicking on the link text. When you

8392 Asks: Use the \_\_\_ theme as the fallback theme on the OPAC.
8396 - This preference has no use right now, as Koha has only one theme, but
8397 if your library has a custom theme it will show here as an option.
8398 The purpose of this preference is to provide a way to choose to what

8543 used in conjunction with HTML to set how the HTML page is formatted
8544 and will look on the OPAC. There are two stylesheets that come with
8545 the system; opac.css and opac2.css. A custom stylesheet may also be

13496 Asks: \_\_\_ the IdRef webservice from the opac detail page. IdRef
13497 allows to request authorities from the Sudoc database.
13507 - IdRef is a French service for Sudoc autorities. Using the `Sudoc
13508 database <http://www.sudoc.abes.fr/>`__, it allows to request /
13509 modify / add authorities. If a record comes from the Sudoc (so 009 is
13510 filled with an integer), at the OPAC you will see "Author: Idref" if
13511 a 7..$3 (unimarc author) if filled with a ppn. On clicking on the
13512 Idref link, a popup will display.
13516 The Idref webservice is requested and all records (by roles) for this
13517 author will be displayed
13521 There is 1 line / record and 2 links at the end. 1 will request Koha
13522 (cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=ident:003381862), the other one will
13523 redirect to the sudoc page (http://www.sudoc.fr/003381862).
13527 Please note that this feature is available only for libraries

13540 .. _oai-pmh-pref-label:
13543 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
13547 Asks: \_\_\_ Koha's OAI-PMH server.
13557 - Once enabled you can visit http://YOURKOHACATALOG/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl
13558 to see your file. For the Open Archives Initiative-Protocol for
13559 Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) there are two groups of 'participants':
13560 Data Providers and Service Providers. Data Providers (open archives,
13561 repositories) provide free access to metadata, and may, but do not
13562 necessarily, offer free access to full texts or other resources.
13563 OAI-PMH provides an easy to implement, low barrier solution for Data
13564 Providers. Service Providers use the OAI interfaces of the Data
13565 Providers to harvest and store metadata. Note that this means that
13566 there are no live search requests to the Data Providers; rather,
13567 services are based on the harvested data via OAI-PMH. Koha at present
13568 can only act as a Data Provider. It can not harvest from other
13569 repositories. The biggest stumbling block to having Koha harvest from
13570 other repositories is that MARC is the only metadata format that Koha
13571 indexes natively. Visit
13572 http://www.oaforum.org/tutorial/english/page3.htm for diagrams of how
