PHP Utilities for Koha Integrated Library System

PHP Koha Utility Software


Created this set of utilities intended for use by library staff, extending functionality to the Koha Open Source Integrated Library System (ILS).

Due to time constraints, much of the work was done quickly, and these are reports more than mature PHP/MySQL applications.

Designed and implemented these utilities during 2007-2011. Everything is written in PHP/Javascript on top of MySQL.


The utilities include
A reserve pull list tool for open reserves and holds
A canceled reserve tool
A reserve phone/call list utility
Inter-library loan entry and search screens and database subsystem
Screen to perform patron lookup by internal Koha id code instead of barcode
In house use book count entry forms for the reports

Cataloging stats report generator
Reserve ratio list to help determine when to order materials
Librarian report generator for shelf lists with export to Excel/Open Office
