This is a very interesting idea.  Marshall has raised some very good points, although I'm a little curious about what he means by "recent events".  Can someone expand on that?  Are we talking about a vendor reducing their work force or a development taken a mis-guided direction or what?

In case you haven't see it, Marshall Breeding, Editor of Library Technology Guides, has shared some of his thoughts about Koha governance on his blog at http://www.librarytechnology.org/blog.pl?ThreadID=126&BlogID=1.  It's also linked on the koha.org developer wiki in the IRC meeting area since today's topic was about forming a foundation.

Interesting concept.

Best,

Subject: [KOHA-Consort] new consortium question
Message-ID: <BDA109B879227743B0EE5321FA1EC58E010BA61C8A@SBS08.clicweb.local>

Hi all,

ASCC (a Colorado based consortium) has signed with LibLime to bring up nine pilot libraries by December 1st.  We're really struggling from a consortium perspective with what patron codes and items types to limit our members to.  We're also not sure how to divide things between Collection Code and Shelving Location.  We're looking for examples of what other consortium have done.  Would anyone be willing to share their parameters with us in these four areas?

Looking at some consortium implementations of Koha it seems that item types (DVDs) and location codes (genealogy, ref) are being used as if they were the same thing for the advanced search by consortium, is that correct?

Thanks, Valerie

SekNFind uses Amazon to bring in our pictures to our catalog for our books. 
However it won't bring in a picture if the 13 digit ISBN in the MARC record 
in the 020 is first. If we put the 10 digit first in the 020 and move down 
the 13 the picture comes in. If we have a book that only has a 13 digit 
ISBN we do not get a picture. We also do not seem to get pictures for our 
DVD. Any suggestions? Another question we I have. We import our records 
through Z39.50 target. When the record comes in it brings in maybe 10 to 30 
852 MAR tags which are Location/call number. Is there be a way to block 
that on our import?
Thanks

We have also observed this about the ISBNs. Has anyone else chosen to 
use the other sources of possible covers that are available in the 
parameters?  If so, do you think you get as many "hits" or any other 
observations (like this ISBN issue). I'd like to see some information 
on use of the other types of cover art.

As to your second question, I feel that I did set that type of 
parameter somewhere. But try as I might I can't find it now. Anyone else?
