Course reserves

Modul rezerv kurzov v Kohe vám umožňuje dočasne presunúť exempláre do ‚rezervy‘ a priradiť týmto exemplárom rozličné pravidlá obehu, zatiaľ čo sa používajú v osobitnom kurze.

Setting up course reserves

Before using course reserves, you will need to do some set up.

First you will need to enable course reserves by setting the UseCourseReserves preference to ‚Use‘.

Next you will need to have all of your course instructors added as patrons.

Next you will want to add a couple of new authorized values for Departments and Terms.

You may also want to create new item types, collection codes (CCODE) or shelving locations (LOC) to make it clear that the items are on reserve to your patrons. You will also want to be sure to confirm that your circulation and fine rules are right for your new item types (whether they be hourly or daily loans).

Adding courses

Poznámka

Only staff with the manage_courses permission (or the superlibrarian permission) will be able to add courses.

Once you have completed your set up for course reserves, you can start creating courses and adding titles to the reserve list.

From the main course reserves page, you can add a new course by clicking the ‚New course‘ button at the top left.

Your new course will need a department, number and name at the bare minimum. You can also add in additional details like course section number and term. To link an instructor to this course simply start typing their name and Koha will search your patron database to find you the right person.

Len čo sa želaný inštruktor objaví, stačí kliknúť na jeho meno a bude pridaný. Takto môžete pokračovať u všetkých inštruktorov tohto kurzu. Každý inštruktor sa objaví nad riadkom hľadania a možno ho odobrať kliknutím na odkaz ‚Odobrať‘ napravo od jeho mena.

If you would like your course to show publicly, you’ll want to be sure to check the ‚Enabled?‘ box before saving your new course.

Len čo kurz uložíte, zobrazí sa vám na hlavnej stránke rezerv kurzov a bude sa dať vyhľadať aj ktorékoľvek pole v kurze.

Poznámka

You can customize the columns of this table in the ‚Table settings‘ section of the Administration module (table id: courses page, course_reserves_table).

Adding reserve materials

Poznámka

Only staff with the add_reserves permission (or the superlibrarian permission) will be able to add reserves to existing courses.

Before adding reserve materials, you will need at least one course to add them to. To add materials visit the Course Reserves module.

Kliknite na titul v kurze, do ktorého by ste chceli pridať materiály.

Na vrchu popisu kurzu kliknite na tlačidlo ‚Pridať rezervy‘ a pridajte tituly do tohto zoznamu rezervy. Bude nasledovať výzva k zadaniu čiarového kódu pre exemplár rezervy.

For each item, you can change the item type, collection code, shelving location or holding library. These changes will only apply while the course is active. When you deactivate the course, the items will go back to their original settings.

After you are done scanning the barcodes to add to the course, you can see them on the course page.

Poznámka

You can customize the columns of this table in the ‚Table settings‘ section of the Administration module (table id: reserves page, course_reserves_table).

You also have the possibility of adding several items at the same time. Click on ‚Batch add reserves‘.

Scan the barcodes of the items you want to add to the reserve and change the item type, collection code, shelving location or holding library, if needed.

Course reserves in the OPAC

Once you have enabled course reserves and added courses, you will see a link to course reserves below your search box in the OPAC.

Clicking that link will show you your list of enabled courses (if you have only one course, you will just see the contents of that one course).

Poznámka

You can customize the columns of this table in the ‚Table settings‘ section of the Administration module (table id: course_reserves_table).

You can search course reserves by any field (course number, course name, instructor name, department) that is visible in the list of courses. Clicking a course name will show you the details and reserve items.
