When setting up your Koha system you will want to add information for every library that will be sharing your system. This data is used in several areas of Koha.
When visiting this page you are presented with a list of the libraries and groups that have already been added to the system.
To add a new library:
You will be unable to delete any library that has patrons or items attached to it.
Each library will have an 'Edit' link to the right of it. Click this link to edit/alter details associated with the library in question.
You will be unable to edit the 'Library code'
To add a search domain or library property group click the 'New group' button at the top of the screen.
Of the fields on the group form, 'Category code' and 'Name' are the only required fields
Search domain groups allow you to search a group of libraries at the same time instead of searching just one library or all libraries.
To see Search domain groups in action visit the staff client advanced search page in your Koha system
You can assign specific categories to your libraries by adding groups for them.
Properties are then applied to libraries via the add or edit library form.
See the full documentation for libraries & groups in the manual (online).
