RELEASE NOTES FOR KOHA 17.05.00

+ +

29 May 2017

+ +

Koha is the first free and open source software library automation +package (ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types +and sizes, volunteers, and support companies from around the world. The +website for the Koha project is:

+ +

Koha Community

+ +

Koha 17.05.00 can be downloaded from:

+ +

Download

+ +

Installation instructions can be found at:

+ +

Koha Wiki
OR in the INSTALL files that come in the tarball

+ +

Koha 17.05.00 is a major release, that comes with many new features.

+ +

It includes 7 new features, 197 enhancements, 292 bugfixes.

+ +

New features

+ +

Circulation

+ +

[14610] Add ability to place article requests in Koha

+ +

+
Add ability to place article requests in Koha. + Article Requests are somewhat similar to holds, but are not requests for an item to check out. Instead, article requests are requests for a photocopy of a particular section of a book ( most often ). This is very common in academic libraries where researchers may request a copy of a + single article found in a journal. + This patch set adds the ability to place article requests in Koha. It allows the control of what can be requested via the circulation rules. Since article requests of electronic resources are not outside the realm of possibility, the feature will check not only the items for requstability, but the record itself as well ( i.e. both items.itype and + biblio.itemtype ). + Article requests can be placed for patrons from the opac and staff intranet and can be viewed in most areas where holds are viewed ( e.g. patron details, record details, etc ). + There is a script to view article requests in progress within the circulation module. Article requests can be Open ( i.e. new ), In Processing, Completed, or Canceled. The status of a given request can be updated from this script.
+

+ +

[17453] Inter-site holds improvement

+ +

+
Without this feature users could reserve items and choose any library as a pick up location, but there was no mechanism to prevent users from reserving items that were available on the shelf at any given location from reserving the item at the same location, essentially creating a Fetch and Collect scenario. + This had an impact on staff workloads as they had to process reservations and check shelves for items that students could have collected from the open library shelves. + This enhancement decreases the impact on staff workload by + making it possible to prevent users from requesting items for pick up at a library where the item is currently available.
+

+ +

Installation and upgrade (web-based installer)

+ +

[17855] New onboarding tool feature to guide users through setting up Koha, and minor web installer UI improvements

+ +

+
Koha now has a new tool to get Koha users up and running quickly after a new install. The user is prompted to create their first user, library, category code, item type, and circulation rule just after the database install has completed. Getting started with Koha has never been easier.
+

+ +

Notices

+ +

[17762] Ability to translate notices

+ +

+
It's now possible to translate notice templates into different languages. There is a new 'preferred language' setting available in the user account, that controls which template will be used when generating notices.
+

+ +

OPAC

+ +

[14224] patron notes about item shown at check in

+ +

+
This feature adds a "Note" input field to checked out items in the "your summary" section of the patron account in the OPAC. The field allows patrons to write notes about the item, such as "this DVD is scratched", "the binding was torn", etc. The note will be emailed to the library and displayed on check in.
+

+ +

Patrons

+ +

[12461] Add patron clubs feature

+ +

+
This features adds the ability to create clubs which patrons may be enrolled in. It is particularly useful for tracking summer reading programs, book clubs and other such clubs.
+

+ +

System Administration

+ +

[18066] Hea - Version 2

+ +

+
Hea is a service to collect usage data from libraries using Koha. + With this development Hea can collect the geolocations of the libraries in your installation and create a map. A new configuration page allows to configure easily what information is shared with the Koha community. + Hea statistics can been seen on https://hea.koha-community.org/
+

+ +

Enhancements

+ +

About

+ +

[15465] README for github
[18302] Release team 17.05

+ +

Acquisitions

+ +

[4969] Vendors can not be deleted / show only active vendors

+ +

+
This patch provides the functionality to hide inactive vendors from the vendor search.
+

+ +

[10978] redirect to basket list of a supplier after deleting a basket

+ +

+
This patch redirects to the vendor's list of baskets after deleting a basket, fixes breadcrumbs after deletion and also hides the toolbar actions after deletion (seeing as you can't edit/export etc a basket that no longer exists).
+

+ +

[15503] Grab Item Information from Order Files

+ +

+
The goal of this development is to automatically generate items in Koha with populated information based on a 9XX field and subfield, with the new syspref MarcItemFieldsToOrder.
+

+ +

[17691] Add serial subscriptions info on vendor profile page
[17771] Add link to bibliographic record on spent/ordered lists in acquisitions
[17784] Ability to see funds with an amount of 0.00 when doing a new order
[17977] Add acquisitions sidebar menu to suggestions

+ +

Authentication

+ +

[12026] Shibboleth auto-provisioning - Create

+ +

+
This feature allows it to add new patron records from Shibboleth into Koha ('provision'). It is possible to map Sbibboleth's attributes with Koha fields, the configuration is done in koha-conf.xml. Syncing existing Koha users with Shibboleth is not implemented yet.
+

+ +

[17486] Remove 'Mozilla Persona' as an authentication method

+ +

+
'Persona' never really took off, and although many browsers currently support it, very few services actually implement it. This has lead its founders, Mozilla, to end the project. On November 30th, 2016, Mozilla closed the persona.org services. Now the feature is deleted from Koha.

+ +

[15879] Allow multiple plugin directories to be defined in koha-conf.xml

+ +

+
It's now possible to define multiple plugin directories + in the Koha conf file. This allows for ease of plugin development so that each plugin installed can live in its own git repository. For compatibility, the first plugindir instance defined is used for uploading plugins via the web interface.
+

+ +

[17196] Move marcxml out of the biblioitems table

+ +

+
This development moves marcxml out of the biblioitems and deletedbiblioitems tables and moves it to two new tables: biblio_metadata and deletedbiblio_metadata. SQL queries using the biblioitems table but not the marcxml column will get a performance boost. Storing the marcxml in a specific table will allow us to store several metadata formats (USMARC, MARCXML, MIJ, etc.). + ATTENTION: all reports that use ExtractValue to retrieve MARC tags from biblioitems.marcxml need to be updated/rewritten.
+

+ +

[17216] Add a new table to store authorized value categories

+ +

+
This patch set adds a new table authorised_value_categories to store authori(s|z)ed value categories into a separate table. The problematic is explained on bug 15799 comment 4: + https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15799#c4

Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types +and sizes, volunteers, and support companies from around the world.

Instead, article requests are requests for a photocopy of a particular section of a book ( most often ). This is very common in academic libraries where researchers may request a copy of a +single article found in a journal. +This patch set adds the ability to place article requests in Koha. It allows the control of what can be requested via the circulation rules. Since article requests of electronic resources are not outside the realm of possibility, the feature will check not only the items for requstability, but the record itself as well ( i.e. both items.itype and +biblio.itemtype ). +Article requests can be placed for patrons from the opac and staff intranet and can be viewed in most areas where holds are viewed ( e.g. patron details, record details, etc ). +There is a script to view article requests in progress within the circulation module. Article requests can be Open ( i.e. new ), In Processing, Completed, or Canceled. The status of a given request can be updated from this script. + + +- [[17453]](http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17453) Inter-site holds improvement + +> Without this feature users could reserve items and choose any library as a pick up location, but there was no mechanism to prevent users from reserving items that were available on the shelf at any given location from reserving the item at the same location, essentially creating a Fetch and Collect scenario. +This had an impact on staff workloads as they had to process reservations and check shelves for items that students could have collected from the open library shelves. +This enhancement decreases the impact on staff workload by +making it possible to prevent users from requesting items for pick up at a library where the item is currently available. + + + +### Installation and upgrade (web-based installer) + +- [[17855]](http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17855) New onboarding tool feature to guide users through setting up Koha, and minor web installer UI improvements + +> Koha now has a new tool to get Koha users up and running quickly after a new install. The user is prompted to create their first user, library, category code, item type, and circulation rule just after the database install has completed. Getting started with Koha has never been easier. + + + +### Notices + +- [[17762]](http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17762) Ability to translate notices + +> It's now possible to translate notice templates into different languages. There is a new 'preferred language' setting available in the user account, that controls which template will be used when generating notices. + + + +### OPAC + +- [[14224]](http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14224) patron notes about item shown at check in + +> This feature adds a "Note" input field to checked out items in the "your summary" section of the patron account in the OPAC. The field allows patrons to write notes about the item, such as "this DVD is scratched", "the binding was torn", etc. The note will be emailed to the library and displayed on check in. + + + +### Patrons + +- [[12461]](http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12461) Add patron clubs feature + +> This features adds the ability to create clubs which patrons may be enrolled in.
