.. include:: images.rst Global system preferences ========================= .. _global-system-preferences-label: Global system preferences control the way your Koha system works in general. Set these preferences before anything else in Koha. - *Get there:* More > Administration > Global System Preferences |image0| System preferences can be searched (using any part of the preference name or description) using the search box on the 'Administration' page or the search box at the top of each system preferences page. |image1| When editing preferences a ^(modified)^ tag will appear next to items you change until you click the 'Save All' button: |image2| After saving your preferences you'll get a confirmation message telling you what preferences were saved: |image3| Each section of preferences can be sorted alphabetically by clicking the small down arrow to the right of the word 'Preference' in the header column |image4| If the preference refers to monetary values (like :ref:`maxoutstanding`) the currency displayed will be the default you set in your :ref:`Currencies and Exchange Rates` administration area. In the examples to follow they will all read USD for U.S. Dollars. **Important** For libraries systems with unique URLs for each site the system preference can be overridden by editing your koha-http.conf file this has to be done by a system administrator or someone with access to your system files. For example if all libraries but one want to have search terms highlighted in results you set the OpacHighlightedWords preference to 'Highlight' then edit the koha-http.conf for the library that wants this turned off by adding 'SetEnv OVERRIDE\_SYSPREF\_OpacHighlightedWords "0"^. After restarting the web server that one library will no longer see highlighted terms. Consult with your system administrator for more information. .. _acquisitions-label: Acquisitions ---------------------------- *Get there:* More > Administration > Global system preferences > Acquisitions .. _acquisitions-policy-label: Policy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _acqcreateitem-label: AcqCreateItem ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: placing an order Asks: Create an item when \_\_\_.

If you choose to add an item record when 'placing an order' then you will enter item information in as you place records in your basket. If you choose to add the item when 'receiving an order' you will be asked for item record information when you're receiving orders in acquisitions. If you choose to add the item when 'cataloging a record' then item records will not be created in acquisitions at all, you will need to go to the cataloging module to add the items. .. _acqenablefiles-label: AcqEnableFiles ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't Asks: \_\_\_ enable the ability to upload and attach arbitrary files to invoices. Values: - Do - Don't Description: - This preference controls whether or not you allow the uploading of invoice files via the acquisitions module. .. _acqitemsetsubfieldswhenreceiptiscancelled-label: AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceiptIsCancelled ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Upon cancelling a receipt, update the item's subfields if they were created when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="bar foo""). \_\_\_ Description: - This preference is used in conjunction with the :ref:`AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived` preference. If you have the system set to enter default values when you receive you will want to have those values revert back if reeipt is cancelled. This preference allows you to do that. `AcqItemSetSubfieldsWhenReceived` ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Upon receiving items, update their subfields if they were created when placing an order (e.g. o=5\|a="foo bar"). \_\_\_ Description: - This preference allows you to set default values for items that you receive via acquisitions. Enter the data as subfield=value and split your values with a bar ( \| ). For example you can remove the Ordered status on the item automatically when you receive it just by entering 7=0 in this preference. That will set the Not for Loan status (subfield 7) to 0 which is available. .. _acqviewbaskets-label: AcqViewBaskets ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: created by staff member Asks: Show baskets \_\_\_ Values: - created by staff member - from staff member's branch - in system, regardless of owner Description: - When in acquisitions this preference allows you to control whose baskets you can see when looking at a vendor. The default value of 'created by staff member' makes it so that you only see the baskets you created. Choosing to see baskets 'from staff member's branch' will show you the baskets created by anyone at the branch you're logged in at. Finally, you can choose to set this preference to show you all baskets regardless of who created it ('in system, regardless of owner). Regardless of which value you choose for this preference, superlibrarians can see all baskets created in the system. .. _acqwarnonduplicateinvoice-label: AcqWarnOnDuplicateInvoice ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not warn Asks: \_\_\_ when the librarian tries to create an invoice with a duplicate number.

Values: - lots of - will show as much information as possible - no - will only show basic error messages - some - will show only some of the information available Description: - This preference determines how much information will be sent to the user's screen when the system encounters an error. The most detail will be sent when the value level is set at 2, some detail will be sent when the value is set at 1, and only a basic error message will display when the value is set at 0. This setting is especially important when a system is new and the administration is interested in working out the bugs (errors or problems) quickly. Having detailed error messages makes quick fixes more likely in problem areas. .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarycircrules-label: DefaultToLoggedInLibraryCircRules ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: all libraries Asks: When editing circulation rules show \_\_\_ the rules by default. Values: - all libraries - logged in library's Description: - This preference controls the default value in the branch pull down found at the top of the :ref:`Circulation and fines rules`. .. _defaulttologgedinlibrarynoticesslips-label: DefaultToLoggedInLibraryNoticesSlips ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: all libraries Asks: When editing notices and slips show the \_\_\_ notices and slips by default.

Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address for the administrator of Koha. Description: - This preference allows one email address to be used in warning messages set to the OPAC. If no email address is set for the branch this address will receive messages from patrons regarding modification requests, purchase suggestions, and questions or information regarding overdue notices. It is recommended that a email address that can be accessed by multiple staff members be used for this purpose so that if one librarian is out the others can address these requests. This email address can be changed when needed. .. _noitemtypeimages-label: noItemTypeImages ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Show Asks: \_\_\_ itemtype icons in the catalog. Values: - Shows - Don't show Description: - This preference allows the system administrator to determine if users will be able to set and see an item type icon the catalog on both the OPAC and the Staff Client. The images will display in both the OPAC and the Staff Client/Intranet. If images of item types are disabled, text labels for item types will still appear in the OPAC and Staff Client. .. _replytodefault-label: ReplytoDefault ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address that will be set as the replyto in emails Description: - By default replies to notice emails will go to the `library email address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default email address for all replies to notices you can do that here. .. _returnpathdefault-label: ReturnpathDefault ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the email address set as the return path, if you leave this empty the KohaAdminEmailAddress will be used. Description: - The return path is the email address that bounces will be delivered to. By default bounced notices will go to the `library email address <#libraries-groups>`__, if you would like to specify a default email address for bounces to go to then fill in this preference. .. _virtualshelves-label: virtualshelves ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ staff and patrons to create and view saved lists of books. Values: - Allow - Don't Allow Description: - This preference controls whether the lists functionality will be available in the staff client and OPAC.

Authorized and unauthorized users are determined by their computer's IP addresses. When the preference is set to 'Require', IP authorization is in effect and unauthorized IP addresses will be blocked. This means that staff cannot work from home unless their IP address has been authorized. When set to 'Don't require', anyone with a staff client login will have access no matter which IP address they are using. .. _independentbranches-label: IndependentBranches ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't prevent Asks: \_\_\_ staff (but not superlibrarians) from modifying objects (holds, items, patrons, etc.) belonging to other libraries. Values: - Don't prevent - Prevent Description: - This preference should only be used by library systems which are sharing a single Koha installation among multiple branches but are considered independent organizations, meaning they do not share material or patrons with other branches and do not plan to change that in the future. If set to 'Prevent' it increases the security between library branches by: prohibiting staff users from logging into another branch from within the staff client, filtering out patrons from patron searches who are not a part of the login branch conducting the search, limiting the location choices to the login branch when adding or modifying an item record, preventing users from other branch locations from placing holds or checking out materials from library branches other than their own, and preventing staff from editing item records which belong to other library branches. All of these security safeguards can be overridden only by the superlibrarian, the highest level of privileges. **Important** It is important that this value be set before going live and that it NOT be changed .. _independentbranchespatronmodifications-label: IndependentBranchesPatronModifications ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: No Asks: Prevent staff (but not superlibrarians) from viewing and approving/denying patron modification requests for patrons belonging to other libraries. \_\_\_ Values: - No - Yes .. _sessionrestrictionbyip-label: SessionRestrictionByIP ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Enable Asks: \_\_\_ check for change in remote IP address for session security. Disable only when remote IP address changes frequently. Values: - Disable - Enable Description: - When this preference is set to 'Enable' Koha will log you out of the staff client if your IP address changes as a security measure. For some systems the IP address changes frequently so you'll want to set this preference to 'Disable' to prevent Koha from logging you out of the staff client every time that happens. **Important** This is meant to help those whose IP address changes several times during the day, setting this preference to 'Disable' is not recommended otherwise because it is removing important security features from your staff client. .. _sessionstorage-label: SessionStorage ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: in the MySQL database Asks: Store login session information \_\_\_ Values: - as temporary files - in the MySQL database - in the PostgreSQL database - **Important** PostgreSQL is not yet supported Description: - This preference allows administrators to choose what format session data is stored in during web sessions. .. _timeout-label: timeout ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 12000000 Asks: Automatically log out users after \_\_\_ seconds of inactivity. Description: - This preference sets the length of time the Staff Client or OPAC accounts can be left inactive before re-logging in is necessary. The value of this preference is in seconds. At this time, the amount of time before a session times out must be the same for both the Staff Client and the OPAC. .. _ssl-client-certificate-authentication-label: SSL client certificate authentication ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _allowpkiauth-label: AllowPKIAuth ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: no Asks: Use \_\_\_ field for SSL client certificate authentication Values: - no - the common name - the email address .. _search-engine-label: Search Engine ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _searchengine-label: SearchEngine ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Zebra Asks: Use following search engine: \_\_\_ Values: - Elasticsearch - Zebra .. _share-anonymous-usage-statistics-label: Share anonymous usage statistics ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As an open source project Koha is used all over the world. These preference will help us keep more accurate statistics on where Koha is being used. If you choose to share your information, it will be published on the `Hea Koha community website `__. You will need to enable the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob to send this information at regular intervals to the community. .. _usagestats-label: UsageStats ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't share Asks: \_\_\_ anonymous Koha usage data with the Koha community. Values: - Don't share - Share Description: - This data is stored to help track usage of Koha around the world.

This information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob. .. _usagestatscountry-label: UsageStatsCountry ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: The country where your library is located: \_\_\_ Description: - This data is stored to help track usage of Koha around the world. If you choose to share your information, it will be published on the `Hea Koha community website `__. This information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob. **Important** This preference depends on the `UsageStats <#usagestats>`__ preference. Set that to 'Share' to share your information. .. _usagestatsgeolocation-label: UsageStatsGeolocation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: blank Asks: Geolocation of the main library: \_\_\_ Note that this value has no effect if the :ref:`UsageStats` systemp preference is set to "Don't share" .. _usagestatslibrariesinfo-label: UsageStatsLibrariesInfo ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not Share Asks: \_\_\_ libraries information (name, url, country) Note that this value has no effect if the :ref:`UsageStats` system preference is set to "Don't share" Values: - Do not Share - Share .. _usagestatslibraryname-label: UsageStatsLibraryName ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: The library name \_\_\_ will be shown on the `Hea Koha community website `__. Description: - This data is stored to help track usage of Koha around the world. If you choose to share your information, it will be published on the `Hea Koha community website `__. This information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cron job. **Important** This preference depends on the `UsageStats <#usagestats>`__ preference. Set that to 'Share' to share your information. If this field is empty data will be sent anonymously if you choose 'Share' for the `UsageStats <#usagestats>`__ preference. .. _usagestatslibrarytype-label: UsageStatsLibraryType ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: public Asks: The library type \_\_\_ will be shown on the `Hea Koha community website `__.

This information is sent using the :ref:`Share Usage Stats` cronjob. **Important** This preference depends on the `UsageStats <#usagestats>`__ preference. Set that to 'Share' to share your information. .. _authorities-label: Authorities ---------------------------- *Get there:* More > Administration > Global System Preferences > Authorities .. _general-label: General ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _authdisplayhierarchy-label: AuthDisplayHierarchy ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't display Asks: \_\_\_ broader term/narrower term hierarchies when viewing authorities. Values: - Display |image14| - Don't display Description: - If your authority records includes 5xx fields with linked references to broader and/or narrower see also references this preference will turn on a display of those authorities at the top of the record. .. _authoritycontrolledindicators-label: AuthorityControlledIndicators ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Use the following text to edit how authority records control indicators of attached biblio fields (and possibly subfield $2). Lines starting with a comment symbol (#) are skipped. Each line should be of the form: (marc21|unimarc), tag, ind1:(auth1|auth2|some_value), ind2:(auth1|auth2|thesaurus|some_value). Here auth1 and auth2 refer to the indicators of the authority record, tag is a biblio field number or an asterisk (*), and some_value is a fixed value (one character). The MARC21 option thesaurus refers to indicators controlled by authority field 008/11 and 040$f. Description: - Used when merging authorities. - Controls how the indicators of linked authority records affect the corresponding biblio indicators. Currently, the default valueis fine-tuned for MARC21 and copies the authority indicators for UNIMARC. - For example,a MARC21 field 100 in a biblio record should pick its first indicator from the linked authority record. The second indicator is not controlled by the authority. This report supports such MARC conventions. .. _authoritymergelimit-label: AuthorityMergeLimit ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 50 Asks: When modifying an authority record, do not update attached biblio records if the number exceeds \_\_\_ records. (Above this limit, the merge_authority cron job will merge them.) .. _authoritymergemode-label: AuthorityMergeMode ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: loose Asks: When updating biblio records from an attached authority record ("merging"), handle subfields of relevant biblio record fields in \_\_\_ mode. In strict mode subfields that are not found in the authority record, are deleted. Loose mode will keep them. Loose mode is the historical behavior and still the default. Values: - loose - strict .. _autocreateauthorities-label: AutoCreateAuthorities ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: do not generate Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ authority records that are missing. Values: - do not generate - generate **Important** `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ must be set to "allow" for this to have any effect Description: - When this and `BiblioAddsAuthorities <#biblioaddsauthorities>`__ are both turned on, automatically create authority records for headings that don't have any authority link when cataloging. When BiblioAddsAuthorities is on and AutoCreateAuthorities is turned off, do not automatically generate authority records, but allow the user to enter headings that don't match an existing authority. When BiblioAddsAuthorities is off, this has no effect. .. _biblioaddsauthorities-label: BiblioAddsAuthorities ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: allow Asks: When editing records, \_\_\_ them to automatically create new authority records if needed, rather than having to reference existing authorities. Values: - allow - This setting allows you to type values in the fields controlled by authorities and then adds a new authority if one does not exist - don't allow - This setting will lock the authority controlled fields, forcing you to search for an authority versus allowing you to type the information in yourself. .. _marcauthoritycontrolfield008-label: MARCAuthorityControlField008 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: \|\| aca\|\|aabn \| a\|a d Asks: Use the following text for the contents of MARC21 authority control field 008 position 06-39 (fixed length data elements). **Important** Do not include the date (position 00-05) in this preference, Koha will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in this preference. Description: - This preference controls the default value in the 008 field on Authority records. It does not effect bibliographic records. .. _unimarcauthorityfield100-label: UNIMARCAuthorityField100 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: afrey50 ba0 Asks: Use the following text for the contents of UNIMARC authority field 100 position (fixed length data elements). **Important** Do not include the date (position 00-07) in this preference, Koha will calculate automatically and put that in before the values in this preference. Description: - This preference controls the default value in the 100 field on Authority records cataloged in UNIMARC. It does not effect bibliographic records. .. _useauthoritiesfortracings-label: UseAuthoritiesForTracings ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't use Asks: \_\_\_ authority record numbers instead of text strings for searches from subject tracings. Values: - Don't use - Search links look for subject/author keywords (example: opac-search.pl?q=su:Business%20networks) - Use - Search links look for an authority record (example: opac-search.pl?q=an:354) Description: - For libraries that have authority files, they may want to make it so that when a link to an authorized subject or author is clicked on the OPAC or staff client it takes the searcher only to a list of results with that authority record. Most libraries do not have complete authority files and so setting this preference to 'Don't use' will allow searchers to click on links to authors and subject headings and perform a keyword search against those fields, finding all possible relevant results instead. .. _linker-label: Linker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ These preferences will control how Koha links bibliographic records to authority records. All bibliographic records added to Koha after these preferences are set will link automatically to authority records, for records added before these preferences are set there is a script (misc/link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl) that your system administrator can run to link records together. .. _catalogmodulerelink-label: CatalogModuleRelink ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not Asks: \_\_\_ automatically relink headings that have previously been linked when saving records in the cataloging module. Values: - Do - Do not Description: - Longtime users of Koha don't expect the authority and bib records to link consistently. This preference makes it possible to disable authority relinking in the cataloging module only (i.e. relinking is still possible if link\_bibs\_to\_authorities.pl is run). Note that though the default behavior matches the previous behavior of Koha (retaining links to outdated authority records), it does not match the intended behavior (updating biblio/authority link after bibliographic record is edited). Libraries that want the intended behavior of authority control rather than the way Koha used to handle linking should set CatalogModuleRelink to 'Do'. Once setting this to 'Do' the following preferences can also be set. .. _linkerkeepstale-label: LinkerKeepStale ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not Asks: \_\_\_ keep existing links to authority records for headings where the linker is unable to find a match. Values: - Do - Do not Description: - When set to 'Do', the linker will never remove a link to an authority record, though, depending on the value of :ref:`LinkerRelink`, it may change the link. .. _linkermodule-label: LinkerModule ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Default Asks: Use the \_\_\_ linker module for matching headings to authority records. Values: - Default - Retains Koha's previous behavior of only creating links when there is an exact match to one and only one authority record; if the :ref:`LinkerOptions` preference is set to 'broader\_headings', it will try to link headings to authority records for broader headings by removing subfields from the end of the heading - First match - Creates a link to the first authority record that matches a given heading, even if there is more than one authority record that matches - Last match - Creates a link to the last authority record that matches a given heading, even if there is more than one record that matches Description: - This preference tells Koha which match to use when searching for authority matches when saving a record. .. _linkeroptions-label: LinkerOptions ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Set the following options for the authority linker \_\_\_ **Important** This feature is experimental and shouldn't be used in a production environment until further expanded upon. Description: - This is a pipe separated (\|) list of options. At the moment, the only option available is "broader\_headings." With this option set to "broader\_headings", the linker will try to match the following heading as follows: :: =600 10$aCamins-Esakov, Jared$xCoin collections$vCatalogs$vEarly works to 1800. First: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs--Early works to 1800 Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections--Catalogs Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared--Coin collections Next: Camins-Esakov, Jared (matches! if a previous attempt had matched, it would not have tried this) .. _linkerrelink-label: LinkerRelink ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do Asks: \_\_\_ relink headings that have previously been linked to authority records. Values: - Do - Do not Description: - When set to 'Do', the linker will confirm the links for headings that have previously been linked to an authority record when it runs, correcting any incorrect links it may find. When set to 'Do not', any heading with an existing link will be ignored, even if the existing link is invalid or incorrect. .. _cataloging-label: Cataloging -------------------------- *Get there:* More > Administration > Global System Preferences > Cataloging .. _display-label: Display ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _acquisitiondetails-label: AcquisitionDetails ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Display Asks: \_\_\_ acquisition details on the biblio detail page. Values: - Display - Don't display Description: - This preference controls whether a tab will show on the detail page in the staff client that includes detailed acquisitions information for the title. This tab will include links to order information stored in the acquisitions module. |image1180| .. _authorityseparator-label: AuthoritySeparator ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: -- Asks: Separate multiple displayed authors, series or subjects with \_\_\_. .. _hide\_marc-label: hide\_marc ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Display Asks: \_\_\_ MARC tag numbers, subfield codes and indicators in MARC views. Values: - Display -- shows the tag numbers on the cataloging interface |image15| - Don't display -- shows just descriptive text when cataloging |image16| .. _intranetbibliodefaultview-label: IntranetBiblioDefaultView ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: ISBD form Asks: By default, display biblio records in \_\_\_ Values: - ISBD form -- displays records in the staff client in the old card catalog format - See :ref:`ISBD` preference for more information - Labelled MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC with text labels to explain the different fields - MARC form -- displays records in the staff client in MARC - normal form -- visual display in the staff client (for the average person) Description: - This setting determines the bibliographic record display when searching the catalog on the staff client. This setting does not affect the display in the OPAC which is changed using the :ref:`BiblioDefaultView` preference under the OPAC preference tab. This setting changes the look of the record when first displayed. The MARC and ISBD views can still be seen by clicking in the sidebar. .. _isbd-label: ISBD ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: See `ISBD view configuration ` on the wiki. Asks: Use the following as the ISBD template: Description: - This determines how the ISBD information will display in the staff client. Elements in the list can be reordered to produce a different ISBD view. ISBD, the International Standard Bibliographic Description, was first introduced by IFLA (International Federation of Library Associations) in 1969 in order to provide guidelines for descriptive cataloging. The purpose of ISBD is to aid the international exchange of bibliographic records for a variety of materials. .. _labelmarcview-label: LabelMARCView ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't Asks: \_\_\_ collapse repeated tags of the same type into one tag entry. Values: - Do -- will combine all identical tag numbers under one heading in the MARC view in the OPAC and Staff Client |image17| - Don't -- will list all of the tags individually in the MARC view in the OPAC and Staff Client |image18| .. _marcfielddocurl-label: MARCFieldDocURL ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: blank 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} Description: - This preference lets you choose the source of the MARC documentation available through the "?" next to MARC fields. .. _mergereportfields-label: MergeReportFields ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: \_\_\_ fields to display for deleted records after merge Description: - When merging records together you can receive a report of the merge process once it's done, this preference lets you set the default values for this report. Example: '001,245ab,600' displays: - value of 001 - subfields a and b of fields 245 - all subfields of fields 600 .. _notesblacklist-label: NotesBlacklist ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Don't show these \_\_\_ note fields in title notes separator (OPAC record details) and in the description separator (Staff client record details). Description: - This preference lets you define which of your note fields are hidden from the title notes (OPAC) and descriptions (Staff) tabs. Enter the values as a comma separated list. For example to hide the local note and the bibliography note in MARC21 enter 504, 590. .. _opacsuppression,-opacsuppressionbyiprange,-opacsuppressionredirect,-and-opacsuppressionmessage-label: OpacSuppression, OpacSuppressionByIPRange, OpacSuppressionRedirect, and OpacSuppressionMessage ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ OpacSuppression Default: Don't hide Asks: \_\_\_ items marked as suppressed from OPAC search results. Restrict the suppression to IP addressesoutside of the IP range \_\_\_ (Leave blank if not used. Define a range like 192.168..) Redirect the opac detail page for suppressed records to \_\_\_ Display the following message on the redirect page for suppressed biblios \_\_\_. OpacSuppression Values: - Don't hide - Will show records in OPAC search results if they are marked suppressed - Hide - Will not show records in OPAC search results if they're marked as suppressed OpacSuppressionRedirect Values: - an explanatory page ('This record is blocked'). - the 404 error page ('Not found'). Description: - These preferences control hiding of bibliographic records from display in the OPAC. Each bibliographic record you want to hide from the OPAC simply needs to have the value "1" in the field mapped with Suppress index (942$n field in MARC21, no official field in UNIMARC). The indexer then hides it from display in OPAC but will still display it in the Staff Client. If you want to further control suppression you can set an IP address range to still show suppressed items to. Define a range like 192.168.. If you don't want to limit suppression in this way, leave the IP field blank. You can also decide what the patrons will see in the OPAC when a title is suppressed by setting the OpacSuppressionRedirect and OpacSuppressionMessage preferences. You can either show the patron a 404 page if they try to see a suppressed record or you can create a custom page by entering the HTML in the OpacSuppressionMessage part of this preference. **Note** An :ref:`authorized value ` for the MARC21 942$n field (or the equivalent UNIMARC field) should be set to eliminate errors. One example would be to create an authorized value titled SUPPRESS with a value of 0 for don't suppress and 1 for suppress. **Important** If this preference is set to 'hide' and you have the 942n field set to 1, it will hide the entire bib record - not just an individual item. **Note** Suppressed records will show a note in the staff client indicating that they are suppressed from view in the OPAC. |image1181| This note can be styled by using the :ref:`IntranetUserCSS` preference to stand out more if you'd like. |image1182| .. _separateholdings-&-separateholdingsbranch-label: SeparateHoldings & SeparateHoldingsBranch ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ SeparateHoldings default: Don't separate SeparateHoldingsBranch default: home library Asks: \_\_\_ items display into two tabs, where the first tab contains items whose \_\_\_ is the logged in user's library. The second tab will contain all other items. SeparateHoldings values: - Don't separate - Separate SeparateHoldingsBranch values: - holding library - home library Description: - This preference lets you decide if you would like to have the holding information on the bibliographic detail page in the staff client split in to multiple tabs. The default is to show all holdings on one tab. |image19| .. _urllinktext-label: URLLinkText ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Online Resource Asks: Show \_\_\_ as the text of links embedded in MARC records. Description: - If the 856 field does not have a subfield 3 or y defined, the OPAC will say 'Click here to access online.^ If you would like the field to say something else enter that in this field. .. _usecontrolnumber-label: UseControlNumber ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't use Asks: \_\_\_ record control number ($w subfields) and control number (001) for linking of bibliographic records. Values: - Don't use - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues' and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a title search - Use - When clicking on links to titles that appear next to 'Continues' and 'Continued by' in the detail display Koha will perform a control number (MARC field 001) search **Important** Unless you are going in and manually changing 773$w to match your rigorously-defined bibliographic relationships, you should set this preference to "Don't use" and instead set :ref:`EasyAnalyticalRecords` to "Display" Description: - If you have a serial called "Journal of Interesting Things" which has a separate record from when it was called "Transactions of the Interesting Stuff Society," you could add linking fields to indicate the relationship between the two records. UseControlNumber allows you to use your local accession numbers for those links. In MARC21, the relevant sections of the two records might look like this: :: =001 12345 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society. =245 10$aTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society. =785 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tJournal of Interesting Things.$w12346 =001 12346 =110 2_$aInteresting Stuff Society. =245 10$aJournal of Interesting Things. =780 00$aInteresting Stuff Society$tTransactions of the Interesting Stuff Society.$w12345 With UseControlNumber set to 'Use', the 78x links will use the Control Numbers is subfield $w, instead of doing a title search on "Journal of Interesting Things" and "Transactions of the Interesting Stuff Society" respectively. .. _exporting-label: Exporting ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _bibtexexportadditionalfields-label: BibtexExportAdditionalFields ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Include following fields when exporting BibTeX Description: - Use one line per tag in the format BT\_TAG: TAG$SUBFIELD ( e.g. lccn: 010$a ) - To specify multiple marc tags/subfields as targets for a repeating BibTex tag, use the following format: BT\_TAG: [TAG2$SUBFIELD1, TAG2$SUBFIELD2] ( e.g. notes: [501$a, 505$g] ) - All values of repeating tags and subfields will be printed with the given BibTeX tag. - Use ^@^ ( with quotes ) as the BT\_TAG to replace the bibtex record type with a field value of your choosing. .. _risexportadditionalfields-label: RisExportAdditionalFields ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Include following fields when exporting RIS Description: - Use one line per tag in the format RIS\_TAG: TAG$SUBFIELD ( e.g. LC: 010$a ) - To specificy multiple marc tags/subfields as targets for a repeating RIS tag, use the following format: RIS\_TAG: [TAG2$SUBFIELD1, TAG2$SUBFIELD2] ( e.g. NT: [501$a, 505$g] ) - All values of repeating tags and subfields will be printed with the given RIS tag. - Use of TY ( record type ) as a key will *replace* the default TY with the field value of your choosing. .. _importing-label: Importing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _aggressivematchonisbn-label: AggressiveMatchOnISBN ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: don't Asks: When matching on ISBN with the record import tool, \_\_\_ attempt to match aggressively by trying all variations of the ISBNs in the imported record as a phrase in the ISBN fields of already cataloged records. Values: - do - don't Description: - This preference allows you to choose to alter the ISBN matching rule used when staging records for import to be more aggressive. This means that all text will be stripped from the ISBN field so that a pure number match is possible. If this preference is set to "Don't" then Koha will find a match only if the ISBN fields are identical. **Important** Note that this preference has no effect if :ref:`UseQueryParser` is on. .. _aggressivematchonissn-label: AggressiveMatchOnISSN ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: don't Asks: When matching on ISSN with the record import tool, \_\_\_ attempt to match aggressively by trying all variations of the ISSNs in the imported record as a phrase in the ISSN fields of already cataloged records. Note that this preference has no effect if :ref:`UseQueryParser` is on. .. _interface-label: Interface ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _advancedmarceditor-label: advancedMARCeditor ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't display Asks: \_\_\_ descriptions of fields and subfields in the MARC editor. Description: - This preference determines whether or not MARC field names will be present when editing or creating MARC records. Values: - Display |image20| - Don't display |image21| .. _defaultclassificationsource-label: DefaultClassificationSource ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Dewey Decimal System Asks: Use \_\_\_ as the default classification source. Values: - ANSCR (Sound Recordings) - Dewey Decimal Classification - Library of Congress Classification - Other/Generic Classification Scheme - SuDoc Classification (U.S. GPO) - Universal Decimal Classification **Note** Adding another classification under Administration > Classification Sources will make it show up in this list as well. .. _easyanalyticalrecords-label: EasyAnalyticalRecords ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't Display Asks: \_\_\_ easy ways to create analytical record relationships Values: - Display - Don't Display **Important** If you decide to use this feature you'll want to make sure that your :ref:`UseControlNumber` preference is set to "Don't use" or else the "Show analytics" links in the staff client and the OPAC will be broken. Description: - An analytic entry in a catalog is one that describes a part of a larger work that is also described in the catalog. In bibliographic cataloging, analytic entries may be made for chapters in books or special issues of articles in periodicals. In archival cataloging, analytic entries may be made for series or items within a collection. This feature in Koha allows for an easy way of linking analytic entries to the host records, and this system preference adds several new menu options to the staff cataloging detail pages to allow that to happen. .. _enableadvancedcatalogingeditor-label: EnableAdvancedCatalogingEditor ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Default: Don't enable Asks: \_\_\_ the advanced cataloging editor. Description: - This preference will allow you to choose between a basic editor and a advanced editor for cataloging. **Note** This feature does not currently include any support for UNIMARC or NORMARC fixed fields. .. _record-structure-label: Record Structure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _alternateholdingsfield-&-alternateholdingsseparator-label: AlternateHoldingsField & AlternateHoldingsSeparator ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Display MARC subfield \_\_\_ as holdings information for records that do not have items, with the subfields separated by \_\_\_. Description: - Sometimes libraries migrate to Koha with their holding info in the 852 field (OCLC holdings information field) and choose not to transfer that information into the 952 (Koha holdings information field) because they don't plan on circulating those items. For those libraries or other libraries that have data in the 852 fields of their records that they want to display, these preferences let you choose to display holdings info from a field other than the 952 field. The AlternateHoldingsField preference can contain multiple subfields to look in; for instance 852abhi would look in 852 subfields a, b, h, and i. - With AlternateHoldingsField set to 852abhi and AlternateHoldingsSeparator set to a space the holdings would look like the following: |image22| .. _autobarcode-label: autoBarcode ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: generated in the form yymm0001 Asks: Barcodes are \_\_\_ Values: - generated in the form yymm0001 - generated in the form -0001, -0002 - generated in the form 1, 2, 3 - incremental EAN-13 barcodes - not generated automatically Description: - This setting is for libraries wishing to generate barcodes from within Koha (as opposed to scanning in pre-printed barcodes or manually assigning them). The default behavior makes it so that when you click in the barcode field (952$p in MARC21) it will populate with the automatic barcode you have chosen. If you would rather it only enter an automatic barcode when you click on the plugin (the ... to the right of the field) you can change the plugin used for that field in the framework. Set the plugin for 952$p (if using MARC21 or equivalent field mapped to items.barcode in your local MARC format) for your frameworks to barcode\_manual.pl instead of barcode.pl. Learn more about editing frameworks under the :ref:`MARC Bibliographic Frameworks ` section of this manual. .. _defaultcountryfield008-label: DefaultCountryField008 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Empty defaults to xxu for United States Asks: Fill in the default country code for field 008 Range 15-17 of MARC21 - Place of publication, production, or execution. \_\_\_. Description: - This preference will allow you to set the country code for your MARC21 008 field by default. If this is left empty it will default to United States (xxu). See the `MARC Code List for Countries `__ for additional values for this preference. **Note** This preference won't have any effect if your records are in UNIMARC. .. _defaultlanguagefield008-label: DefaultLanguageField008 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Empty defaults to eng Asks: Fill in the default language for field 008 Range 35-37 of MARC21 records \_\_\_. Description: - This preference will allow you to set the language for your MARC21 008 field by default. If this is left empty it will default to English (eng). See the `MARC Code List for Languages `__ for additional values for this preference. **Note** This preference won't have any effect if your records are in UNIMARC. .. _item-level\_itypes-label: item-level\_itypes ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: specific item Asks: Use the item type of the \_\_\_ as the authoritative item type (for determining circulation and fines rules, etc). Values: - biblio record - specific item Description: - This preference determines whether the item type Koha uses for issuing rules will be an attribute of the bibliographic record or the item record. Most libraries refer to the item record for item types. It also determines if the item type icon appears on the OPAC search results. If you have the preference set to 'biblio record' then Koha displays the item type icon on the search results to the left of the result info. |image23| .. _itemcallnumber-label: itemcallnumber ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 082ab Asks: Map the MARC subfield to an item's callnumber. **Note** This can contain multiple subfields to look in; for instance 082ab would look in 082 subfields a and b. Description: - This setting determines which MARC field will be used to determine the call number that will be entered into item records automatically (952$o). The value is set by providing the MARC field code (050, 082, 090, 852 are all common in MARC21) and the subfield codes without the delimiters ($a, $b would be ab). Examples: - Dewey: 082ab or 092ab; LOC: 050ab or 090ab; from the item record: 852hi .. _marcflavour-label: marcflavour ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: MARC21 Asks: Interpret and store MARC records in the \_\_\_ format.

Description: - The MARC Organization Code is used to identify libraries with holdings of titles and more. Learn more and find your library's MARC21 code on the `MARC Code list for Organizations `__ or in Canada on the `Canadian Symbols Directory `__. **Note** This preference won't have any effect if your records are in UNIMARC. .. _newitemsdefaultlocation-label: NewItemsDefaultLocation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: When items are created, give them the temporary location of \_\_\_ (should be a location code, or blank to disable). .. _prefillitem-label: PrefillItem ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: the new item is not prefilled with last created item values. Asks: When a new item is added \_\_\_ Values: - the new item is not prefilled with last created item values. - the new item is prefilled with last created item values. Description: - This preference controls the behavior used when adding new items. Using the options here you can choose to have your next new item prefill with the values used in the last item was added to save time typing values or to have the item form appear completely blank. Using :ref:`SubfieldsToUseWhenPrefill` you can control specifically which fields are prefilled. .. _subfieldstoallowforrestrictedbatchmod-label: SubfieldsToAllowForRestrictedBatchmod ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Define a list of subfields for which editing is authorized when `items\_batchmod\_restricted <#items_batchmod_restricted>`__ permission is enabled, separated by spaces. \_\_\_ Examples: - UNIMARC: "995$f 995$h 995$j" - MARC21: "952$a 952$b 952$c" Description: - This preference lets you define what fields can be edited via the :ref:`batch item modification tool ` if the items\_batchmod\_restricted permission is enabled. **Note** The FA framework is excluded from the permission. If the pref is empty, no fields are restricted. .. _subfieldstoallowforrestrictedediting-label: SubfieldsToAllowForRestrictedEditing ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Define a list of subfields for which editing is authorized when edit\_items\_restricted permission is enabled, separated by spaces. \_\_\_ Examples: - UNIMARC: "995$f 995$h 995$j" - MARC21: "952$a 952$b 952$c" Description: - This preference lets you define what fields can be edited via cataloging if the `edit\_items\_restricted <#edit_items_restricted>`__ permission is enabled **Note** The Fast Add (FA) framework is excluded from the permission. If the pref is empty, no fields are restricted. .. _subfieldstousewhenprefill-label: SubfieldsToUseWhenPrefill ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Define a list of subfields to use when prefilling items \_\_\_ **Important** Separate values with a space. Description: - When the :ref:`PrefillItem` preference is set to prefill item values with those from the last added item, this preference can control which fields are prefilled (and which are not). Enter a space separated list of fields that you would like to prefill when adding a new item. .. _unimarcfield100language-label: UNIMARCField100Language ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: fre Asks: Use the language (ISO 690-2) \_\_\_ as default language in the UNIMARC field 100 when creating a new record or in the field plugin. .. _z3950normalizeauthor-&-z3950authorauthfields-label: z3950NormalizeAuthor & z3950AuthorAuthFields ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Defaults: Don't copy & 701,702,700 Asks: \_\_\_ authors from the UNIMARC \_\_\_ tags (separated by commas) to the correct author tags when importing a record using Z39.50. Description for z3950NormalizeAuthor: - This preference allows for 'Personal Name Authorities' to replace authors as the bibliographic authority. This preference should only be considered by libraries using UNIMARC. Values for z3950NormalizeAuthor: - Copy - Don't copy Description for z3950AuthorAuthFields: - This preference defines which MARC fields will be used for 'Personal Name Authorities' to replace authors as the bibliographic authorities. This preference only applies to those using UNIMARC encoding. The MARC fields selected here will only be used if 'z3950NormalizeAuthor' is set to "Copy".

These restrictions can be overridden by the :ref:`AgeRestrictionOverride` preference. Enter in this field a series of keywords separated by bar (\|) with no spaces. For example PG\|R\|E\|EC\|Age\| will look for PG followed by an age number, R folllowed by an age number, Age followed by an age number, and so on. These values can appear in any MARC field, but Library of Congress recommends the 521$a (Target Audience Note). Whatever field you decide to use you must map the word agerestriction in the biblioitems table to that field in the :ref:`Koha to MARC Mapping `. When cataloging you can enter values like PG 13 or E 10 in the 521$a and Koha will then notify circulation librarians that the material may not be recommended for the patron based on their age. **Important** You must map the word agerestriction in the biblioitems table to the MARC field where this information will appear via the :ref:`Koha to MARC Mapping ` administration area. .. _agerestrictionoverride-label: AgeRestrictionOverride ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ staff to check out an item with age restriction. Values: - Allow |image25| - Don't allow |image26| Description: - When the :ref:`AgeRestrictionMarker` preference is set, Koha will try to warn circulation librarians before checking out an item that might have an age restriction listed in the MARC record.

If the item's home library does not match the logged in library, the item cannot be checked out unless you are a :ref:`superlibrarian `. **Important** It is not recommend that this setting be changed after initial setup of Koha because it will change the behavior of items already checked out. .. _inprocessingtoshelvingcart-label: InProcessingToShelvingCart ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't move Asks: \_\_\_ items that have the location PROC to the location CART when they are checked in. Values: - Don't move - Move Description: - This preference is used to manage automatically changing item locations from processing (PROC) to the book cart (CART). A :ref:`cron job ` needs to be set to run at specified intervals to age items from CART to the permanent shelving location. (For example, an hourly cron entry of cart\_to\_shelf.pl --hours 3 where --hours is the amount of time an item should spend on the cart before aging to its permanent location.) More information can be found in the :ref:`related chapter ` in this manual. - **Note** If the :ref:`ReturnToShelvingCart` system preference is turned on, any newly checked-in item is also automatically put into the shelving cart, to be covered by the same script run. - **Important** Checkins with confirmed holds will not go into the shelving cart. If items on the shelving cart are checked out, the cart location will be cleared. .. _issuelostitem-label: IssueLostItem ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: display a message Asks: When issuing an item that has been marked as lost, \_\_\_.

Values: - Don't prevent - Prevent Description: - This preference determines if a patron can check items out if there is an overdue fine on the account and any of the materials the patron wishes to check out will potentially tip the account balance over the maximum fines policy the library has in place. Example: Your library has a $5 limit set for 'fines' (ie, after incurring $5 in fines, a patron can no longer check out items). A patron comes to the desk with 5 items to check out (4 books and a video) The patron has $4 in charges already on their account. One of the videos has a rental charge of $1, therefore making the total fines on the patron's account suddenly $5 (the limit). .. _maninvinnoissuescharge-label: ManInvInNoissuesCharge ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Include Asks: \_\_\_ MANUAL\_INV charges when summing up charges for noissuescharge. Values: - Don't include - Include Description: - This preference lets you decide if charges entered as manual invoices are included when calculating the :ref:`noissuescharge`.

Values: - Do not mark - Mark Description: - This preference lets you decide if an item marked as lost is automatically returned from the user's file or not. .. _maxoutstanding-label: maxoutstanding ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 5 Asks: Prevent patrons from making holds on the OPAC if they owe more than \_\_\_ USD in fines. .. _noissuescharge-label: noissuescharge ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 5 Asks: Prevent patrons from checking out books if they have more than \_\_\_ USD in fines. Description: - This preference is the maximum amount of money owed to the library before the user is banned from borrowing more items. Using the :ref:`ManInvInNoissuesCharge` and :ref:`RentalsInNoissuesCharge` preferences you can control which types of charges are considered in this total. This also coincides with :ref:`maxoutstanding` that limits patrons from placing holds when the maximum amount is owed to the library. .. _noissueschargeguarantees-label: NoIssuesChargeGuarantees ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Prevent a patron from checking out if the patron has guarantees owing in total more than \_\_\_ USD in fines.

If this preference is set to 'circulation rules only' then the item will remain due on the 25th. If the preference is set to 'the calendar to push the due date to the next open day' then the due date will be December 26th. If the preference is set to 'the calendar to skip all days the library is closed' then the due date will be pushed to the 27th of December to accommodate for the two closed days. The calendar is defined on a branch by branch basis. To learn more about the calendar, check out the ^:ref:`Calendar & Holidays `^ section of this manual. .. _usetransportcostmatrix-label: UseTransportCostMatrix ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't use Asks: \_\_\_ Transport Cost Matrix for calculating optimal holds filling between branches. Values: - Don't use - Use Description: - If the system is configured to use the :ref:`Transport cost matrix ` for filling holds, then when attempting to fill a hold, the system will search for the lowest cost branch, and attempt to fill the hold with an item from that branch first. Branches of equal cost will be selected from randomly. The branch or branches of the next highest cost shall be selected from only if all the branches in the previous group are unable to fill the hold.

Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - This preference is a binary setting which controls whether or not the library staff can override the circulation and fines rules as they pertain to the placement of holds. Setting this value to "Don't allow" will prevent anyone from overriding, setting it to "Allow" will allow it. This setting is important because it determines how strict the libraries rules for placing holds are. If this is set to "Allow", exceptions can be made for patrons who are otherwise normally in good standing with the library, but there is opportunity for the staff to abuse this function. If it is set to "Don't allow", no abuse of the system is possible, but it makes the system entirely inflexible in respect to holds. .. _allowholdsondamageditems-label: AllowHoldsOnDamagedItems ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ hold requests to be placed on damaged items. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - This parameter is a binary setting which controls whether or not hold requests can be placed on items that are marked as "damaged" (items are marked as damaged by editing subfield 4 on the item record). Setting this value to "Don't allow" will prevent anyone from placing a hold on such items, setting it to "Allow" will allow it. This preference is important because it determines whether or not a patron can place a request for an item that might be in the process of being repaired or not in good condition. The library may wish to set this to "Don't allow" if they were concerned about their patrons not receiving the item in a timely manner or at all (if it is determined that the item is beyond repair). Setting it to "Allow" would allow a patron to place a hold on an item and therefore receive it as soon as it becomes available. .. _allowholdsonpatronspossessions-label: AllowHoldsOnPatronsPossessions ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_\_ a patron to place a hold on a record where the patron already has one or more items attached to that record checked out. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - By setting to "Don't allow," you can prevent patrons from placing holds on items they already have out, thus preventing them from blocking anyone else from getting an item. .. _allowrenewalifotheritemsavailable-label: AllowRenewalIfOtherItemsAvailable ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ a patron to renew an item with unfilled holds if other available items can fill that hold. Values: - Allow - Don't allow .. _autoresumesuspendedholds-label: AutoResumeSuspendedHolds ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ suspended holds to be automatically resumed by a set date. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - If this preference is set to 'Allow' then all suspended holds will be able to have a date at after which they automatically become unsuspended. If you have this preference set to 'Allow' you will also need the :ref:`Unsuspend Holds` cron job running. **Important** The holds will become unsuspended the date after that entered by the patron. .. _canmarkholdstopullaslost-label: CanMarkHoldsToPullAsLost ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not allow to mark items as lost Asks: \_\_\_ from the 'Holds to pull' screen Values: - Allow to mark items as lost - Allow to mark items as lost and notify the patron - Do not allow to mark items as lot Description: - This preference lets you choose whether the staff can mark items as lost directly from the 'Holds to pull' list if they can't find the item on the shelf. .. _canreservefromotherbranches-label: canreservefromotherbranches ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ a user from one library to place a hold on an item from another library Description: - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether patrons can place holds on items from other branches. If the preference is set to "Allow" patrons can place such holds, if it is set to "Don't allow" they cannot. This is an important setting because it determines if users can use Koha to request items from another branch. If the library is sharing an installation of Koha with other independent libraries which do not wish to allow interlibrary borrowing it is recommended that this parameter be set to "Don't allow". Values: - Allow - Don't allow (with :ref:`independent branches `) .. _confirmfutureholds-label: ConfirmFutureHolds ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 0 Asks: Confirm future hold requests (starting no later than \_\_\_ days from now) at checkin time. Description: - When confirming a hold at checkin time, the number of days in this preference is taken into account when deciding which holds to show alerts for. This preference does not interfere with renewing, checking out or transferring a book. **Note** This number of days will be used too in calculating the default end date for the Holds to pull-report. But it does not interfere with issuing, renewing or transferring books. **Important** This preference is only looked at if you're allowing hold dates in the future with :ref:`AllowHoldDateInFuture` or :ref:`OPACAllowHoldDateInFuture` .. _decreaseloanhighholds,-decreaseloanhighholdsduration,-decreaseloanhighholdsvalue,-decreaseloanhighholdscontrol,-and-decreaseloanhighholdsignorestatuses-label: decreaseLoanHighHolds, decreaseLoanHighHoldsDuration, decreaseLoanHighHoldsValue, decreaseLoanHighHoldsControl, and decreaseLoanHighHoldsIgnoreStatuses ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: \_\_\_ the reduction of loan period \_\_\_ to days for items with more than \_\_\_ holds \_\_\_ . Ignore items with the following statuses when counting items \_\_\_ decreaseLoanHighHolds default: Don't enable decreaseLoanHighHoldsControl default: on the record decreaseLoanHighHolds values: - Enable decreaseLoanHighHoldsControl values: - over the number of holdable items on the records - on the record decreaseLoanHighHoldsIgnoreStatuses values: - [Select All] - Damages - Lost - Not for loan - Withdrawn Description: - These preferences let you change the loan length for items that have many holds on them. This will not effect items that are already checked out, but items that are checked out after the decreaseLoanHighHoldsValue is met will only be checked out for the number of days entered in the decreaseLoanHighHoldsDuration preference. |image32| .. _displaymultiplacehold-label: DisplayMultiPlaceHold ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't enable Asks: \_\_\_ the ability to place holds on multiple biblio from the search results Values: - Don't enable - Enable .. _emaillibrarianwhenholdisplaced-label: emailLibrarianWhenHoldIsPlaced ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't enable Asks: \_\_\_ sending an email to the Koha administrator email address whenever a hold request is placed. Values: - Don't enable - Enable Description: - This preference enables Koha to email the library staff whenever a patron requests an item to be held. While this function will immediately alert the librarian to the patron's need, it is extremely impractical in most library settings. In most libraries the hold lists are monitored and maintained from a separate interface. That said, many libraries that allow on shelf holds prefer to have this preference turned on so that they are alerted to pull an item from the shelf. **Important** In order for this email to send you must have a :ref:`notice ` template with the code of HOLDPLACED **Important** This notice will only be sent if the :ref:`process\_message\_queue.pl cronjob ` being run periodically to send the messages. .. _excludeholidaysfrommaxpickupdelay-label: ExcludeHolidaysFromMaxPickUpDelay ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ Closed days to be taken into account in reserves max pickup delay. Values: - Don't allow - Allow .. _expirereservesmaxpickupdelay-label: ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelay ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ holds to expire automatically if they have not been picked by within the time period specified in :ref:`ReservesMaxPickUpDelay` Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - If set to 'allow' this will cancel holds that have been waiting for longer than the number of days specified in the :ref:`ReservesMaxPickUpDelay` system preference. Holds will only be cancelled if the :ref:`Expire Holds cron job ` is runnning. .. _expirereservesmaxpickupdelaycharge-label: ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelayCharge ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 0 Asks: If using :ref:`ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelay`, charge a borrower who allows his or her waiting hold to expire a fee of \_\_\_ USD Description: - If you are expiring holds that have been waiting too long you can use this preference to charge the patron for not picking up their hold. If you don't charge patrons for items that aren't picked up you can leave this set to the default which is 0. Holds will only be cancelled and charged if the :ref:`Expire Holds cron job ` is running. .. _expirereservesonholidays-label: ExpireReservesOnHolidays ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ expired holds to be cancelled on days the library is closed. Values: - Allow - Don't allow .. _localholdspriority,-localholdsprioritypatroncontrol,-localholdspriorityitemcontrol-label: LocalHoldsPriority, LocalHoldsPriorityPatronControl, LocalHoldsPriorityItemControl ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: \_\_\_ priority for filling holds to patrons whose \_\_\_ matches the item's \_\_\_ LocalHoldsPriority Values: - Don't give - Give LocalHoldsPriorityPatronControl Values: - home library - pickup library LocalHoldsPriorityItemControl Values: - holding library - home library Description: - This feature will allow libraries to specify that, when an item is returned, a local hold may be given priority for fulfillment even though it is of lower priority in the list of unfilled holds. .. _maxreserves-label: maxreserves ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 50 Asks: Patrons can only have \_\_\_ holds at once. .. _opacallowholddateinfuture-label: OPACAllowHoldDateInFuture ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ patrons to place holds that don't enter the waiting list until a certain future date. Values: - Allow - :ref:`AllowHoldDateInFuture` must also be enabled for this to work - Don't allow .. _opacallowusertochoosebranch-label: OPACAllowUserToChooseBranch ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ a user to choose the branch to pick up a hold from. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - Changing this preference will not prevent staff from being able to transfer titles from one branch to another to fill a hold, it will only prevent patrons from saying they plan on picking a book up at a branch other than their home branch. .. _opacholdsifavailableatpickup-label: OPACHoldsIfAvailableAtPickup ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ to pickup holds at libraries where the item is available. Values: - Don't allow - Allow Description: - Prevents borrowers from requesting items that are on the shelf at the same branch at which they wish to pick up those items. .. _opacholdsifavailableatpickupexceptions-label: OPACHoldsIfAvailableAtPickupExceptions ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: blank Asks: Patron categories not affected by :ref:`OPACHoldsIfAvailableAtPickup` \_\_\_ (list of patron categories separated with a pipe ^|^) Description: - Patron category codes listed here separated by a pipe ^|^ are unaffected by :ref:`OPACHoldsIfAvailableAtPickup`. .. _reservescontrolbranch-label: ReservesControlBranch ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: item's home library Asks: Check the \_\_\_ to see if the patron can place a hold on the item. Values: - item's home library. - patron's home library. .. _reservesmaxpickupdelay-label: ReservesMaxPickUpDelay ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 7 Asks: Mark a hold as problematic if it has been waiting for more than \_\_\_ days. Description: - This preference (based on calendar days, not the :ref:`Koha holiday calendar `) puts an expiration date on an item a patron has on hold. After this expiration date the staff will have the option to release the unclaimed hold which then may be returned to the library shelf or issued to the next patron on the item's hold list. Items that are 'expired' by this preference are moved to the 'Holds Over' tab on the ^:ref:`Holds Awaiting Pickup `^ report. .. _reservesneedreturns-label: ReservesNeedReturns ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't automatically Asks: \_\_\_ mark holds as found and waiting when a hold is placed specifically on them and they are already checked in. Values: - Automatically - Don't automatically Description: - This preference refers to 'item specific' holds where the item is currently on the library shelf. This preference allows a library to decide whether an 'item specific' hold is marked as "Waiting" at the time the hold is placed or if the item will be marked as "Waiting" after the item is checked in. This preference will tell the patron that their item is 'Waiting' for them at their library and ready for check out. .. _staticholdsqueueweight,-holdsqueueskipclosed-&-randomizeholdsqueueweight-label: StaticHoldsQueueWeight, HoldsQueueSkipClosed & RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ StaticHoldsQueueWeight Default: 0 HoldsQueueSkipClosed Default: open or closed RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Default: in that order Asks: Satisfy holds using items from the libraries \_\_\_ (as branchcodes, separated by commas; if empty, uses all libraries) when they are \_\_\_ \_\_\_. HoldsQueueSkipClosed Values: - open or closed - open RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Values: - in random order - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default Koha will randomize all libraries, otherwise it will randomize the libraries listed. - in that order - If StaticHoldsQueueWeight is left at the default then this will use all of your branches in alphabetical order, otherwise it will use the branches in the order that you entered them in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight preference. Descriptions: - These preferences control how the :ref:`Holds Queue report ` is generated using :ref:`a cron job `. If you do not want all of your libraries to participate in the on-shelf holds fulfillment process, you should list the the libraries that \*do\* participate in the process here by inputting all the participating library's branchcodes, separated by commas ( e.g. "MPL,CPL,SPL,BML" etc. ). By default, the holds queue will be generated such that the system will first attempt to hold fulfillment using items already at the pickup library if possible. If there are no items available at the pickup library to fill a hold, build\_holds\_queue.pl will then use the list of libraries defined in StaticHoldsQueueWeight. If RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight is disabled ( which it is by default ), the script will assign fulfillment requests in the order the branches are placed in the StaticHoldsQueueWeight system preference. For example, if your system has three libraries, of varying sizes ( small, medium and large ) and you want the burden of holds fulfillment to be on larger libraries before smaller libraries, you would want StaticHoldsQueueWeight to look something like "LRG,MED,SML". If you want the burden of holds fulfillment to be spread out equally throughout your library system, simply enable RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight. When this system preference is enabled, the order in which libraries will be requested to fulfill an on-shelf hold will be randomized each time the list is regenerated. Leaving StaticHoldsQueueWeight empty is contraindicated at this time. Doing so will cause the build\_holds\_queue script to ignore RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight, causing the script to request hold fulfillment not randomly, but by alphabetical order. **Important** The :ref:`Transport Cost Matrix ` takes precedence in controlling where holds are filled from, if the matrix is not used then Koha checks the StaticHoldsQueueWeight. To use the Transport Cost Matrix simply set your :ref:`UseTransportCostMatrix` preference to 'Use' .. _suspendholdsintranet-label: SuspendHoldsIntranet ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ holds to be suspended from the intranet. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - The holds suspension feature can be turned on and off in the staff client by altering this system preference. If this is set to 'allow' you will want to set the :ref:`AutoResumeSuspendedHolds` system preference. .. _suspendholdsopac-label: SuspendHoldsOpac ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Allow Asks: \_\_\_ holds to be suspended from the OPAC. Values: - Allow - Don't allow Description: - The holds suspension feature can be turned on and off in the OPAC by altering this system preference. If this is set to 'allow' you will want to set the :ref:`AutoResumeSuspendedHolds` system preference. .. _transferwhencancelallwaitingholds-label: TransferWhenCancelAllWaitingHolds ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't transfer Asks: \_\_\_ items when cancelling all waiting holds. Values: - Don't transfer - Transfer Description: - When TransferWhenCancelAllWaitingHolds is set to "Don't transfer", no branch transfer records are created. Koha will not allow the holds to be transferred, because that would orphan the items at the library where the holds were awaiting pickup, without any further instruction to staff as to what items are at the library or where they need to go. When that system preference set to "Transfer", branch transfers are created, so the holds may be cancelled. .. _updateitemwhenlostfromholdlist-label: UpdateItemWhenLostFromHoldList ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Update item's values when marked as lost from the hold to pull screen. Description: - This is a list of values to update an item when it is marked as lost from the holds to pull screen. For example, write "itemlost: 1" to set the items. itemlost value to 1 when the item is marked as lost. This will use the authorized value 1 from the LOST authorized value list. .. _housebound-module-label: Housebound module ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _houseboundmodule-label: HouseboundModule ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Disable Asks: \_\_\_ housebound module Values: - Disable - Enable Description: - This preference enables or disables the Housebound module which handles management of circulation to Housebound readers. .. _housebound-interface-label: Interface ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .. _allowallmessagedeletion-label: AllowAllMessageDeletion ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ staff to delete messages added from other libraries.

Values: - Don't allow - Allow This preference if set to allow will give your patrons the option to add a note to an item they have checked out on the OPAC side. This note will be seen on the staff side when the item is checked in. .. _allowofflinecirculation-label: AllowOfflineCirculation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Do not enable Asks: \_\_\_ offline circulation on regular circulation computers. Values: - Do not enable - Enable Description: - Setting this preference to 'Enable' allows you to use the Koha interface for :ref:`offline circulation `. This system preference does not affect the :ref:`Firefox plugin ` or the :ref:`desktop application `, any of these three options can be used for offline circulation without effecting the other. .. _autoswitchpatron-label: AutoSwitchPatron ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't enable Asks: \_\_\_ the automatic redirection to another patron when a patron barcode is scanned instead of a book. This should not be enabled if you have overlapping patron and book barcodes. Values: - Don't enable - Enable Description: - Enabling this system preference allows staff to scan a patron barcode instead of an item barcode in the checkout box to switch patron records. .. _circautocompl-label: CircAutocompl ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Try Asks: \_\_\_ to automatically fill in the member when entering a patron search on the circulation screen. Description: - This preference is a binary setting which determines whether auto-completion of fields is enabled or disabled for the circulation input field. Setting it to "Try" would enable a staff member to begin typing a name or other value into the field and have a menu pop up with suggestions for completing it. Setting it to "Don't try" would disable this feature. This preference can make staff members' jobs easier or it could potentially slow down the page loading process. Values: - Don't try - Try |image33| .. _circautoprintquickslip-label: CircAutoPrintQuickSlip ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: open a print quick slip window Asks: When an empty barcode field is submitted in circulation \_\_\_ Values: - clear the screen - open a print quick slip window - open a print slip window Description: - If this preference is set to open a quick slip (:ref:`ISSUEQSLIP `) or open a slip (:ref:`ISSUESLIP `) for printing it will eliminate the need for the librarian to click the print button to generate a checkout receipt for the patron they're checking out to. If the preference is set to clear the screen then "checking out" an empty barcode will clear the screen of the patron you were last working with. .. _circsidebar-label: CircSidebar ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Deactivate Asks: \_\_\_ the navigation sidebar on all Circulation pages. Values: - Deactivate - Activate .. _displayclearscreenbutton-label: DisplayClearScreenButton ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Show Asks: \_\_\_ a button to clear the current patron from the screen on the circulation screen.

Description: - Koha's overdue report shows you all of the overdue items in your library system. If you have a large library system you'll want to set this preference to 'Require' to force those running the report to first limit the data generated to a branch, date range, patron category or other such filter. Requiring that the report be filtered before it's run prevents your staff from running a system heavy report and slowing down other operations in the system. |image34| Values: - Don't require - Require .. _finenotifyatcheckin-label: FineNotifyAtCheckin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't notify Asks: \_\_\_ librarians of overdue fines on the items they are checking in. Values: - Don't notify - Notify Description: - With this preference set to 'Notify' all books that have overdue fines owed on them will pop up a warning when checking them in. This warning will need to acknowledged before you can continue checking items in. With this preference set to 'Don't notify,^ you will still see fines owed on the patron record, you just won't have an additional notification at check in. |image35| .. _holdstopullstartdate-label: HoldsToPullStartDate ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 2 Asks: Set the default start date for the Holds to pull list to \_\_\_ day(s) ago. Description: - The :ref:`Holds to Pull ` report in circulation defaults to filtering holds placed 2 days ago. This preference allows you to set this default filter to any number of days. .. _itembarcodefallbacksearch-label: itemBarcodeFallbackSearch ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't enable Asks: \_\_\_ the automatic use of a keyword catalog search if the phrase entered as a barcode on the checkout page does not turn up any results during an item barcode search. Values: - Don't enable - Enable |image40| Description: - Sometimes libraries want to checkout using something other than the barcode. Enabling this preference will do a keyword search of Koha to find the item you're trying to check out. You can use the call number, barcode, part of the title or anything you'd enter in the keyword search when this preference is enabled and Koha will ask you which item you're trying to check out. **Important** While you're not searching by barcode a barcode is required on every title you check out. Only titles with barcodes will appear in the search results. .. _itembarcodeinputfilter-label: itemBarcodeInputFilter ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't filter Asks: \_\_\_ scanned item barcodes. Values: - Convert from CueCat format - Convert from Libsuite8 form - Don't filter - EAN-13 or zero-padded UPC-A from - Remove spaces from - Remove the first number from T-prefix style - This format is common among those libraries migrating from Follett systems .. _noticecss-label: NoticeCSS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Asks: Include the stylesheet at \_\_\_ on Notices. **Important** This should be a complete URL, starting with http:// Description: - If you would like to style your notices with a consistent set of fonts and colors you can use this preference to point Koha to a stylesheet specifically for your notices. .. _numreturneditemstoshow-label: numReturnedItemsToShow ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: 20 Asks : Show the \_\_\_ last returned items on the checkin screen. .. _previousissuesdefaultsortorder-label: previousIssuesDefaultSortOrder ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: earliest to latest Asks: Sort previous checkouts on the circulation page from \_\_\_ due date.

Due dates are calculated using your circulation and fines rules, but staff can override that if you allow them to specify a due date at checkout. Description: - This preference allows for circulation staff to change a due date from the automatic due date to another calendar date. This option would be used for circumstances in which the due date may need to be decreased or extended in a specific circumstance. The "Allow" setting would allow for this option to be utilized by staff, the "Don't allow" setting would bar staff from changing the due date on materials. Values: - Allow |image41| - Don't allow |image42| .. _specifyreturndate-label: SpecifyReturnDate ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Default: Don't allow Asks: \_\_\_ staff to specify a return date for a check in.

Values: - Disable - Enable Description: - Once enabled you can visit http://YOURKOHACATALOG/cgi-bin/koha/oai.pl to see your file. For the Open Archives Initiative-Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) there are two groups of 'participants': Data Providers and Service Providers. Data Providers (open archives, repositories) provide free access to metadata, and may, but do not necessarily, offer free access to full texts or other resources. OAI-PMH provides an easy to implement, low barrier solution for Data Providers. Service Providers use the OAI interfaces of the Data Providers to harvest and store metadata. Note that this means that there are no live search requests to the Data Providers; rather, services are based on the harvested data via OAI-PMH. Koha at present can only act as a Data Provider. It can not harvest from other repositories. The biggest stumbling block to having Koha harvest from other repositories is that MARC is the only metadata format that Koha indexes natively. Visit http://www.oaforum.org/tutorial/english/page3.htm for diagrams of how OAI-PMH works.
