Significant Changes

New design for staff interface

This is the result of a wide scale review of the staff interface user experience. Staff will experience a new look.

New ERM Module

This new module adds a mechanism to track the selection, acquisition, licensing, access, maintenance, usage, evaluation, retention, and de-selection of a library’s electronic information resources.

New CMS feature

This new feature to add custom pages to the staff interface and the OPAC in the user’s desired language.

Features

Authentication

[30588] Add the option to require 2FA setup on first staff login
[31378] Add a generic OAuth2/OIDC client implementation

Cataloging

[24606] Allow storing item values as a template for creating new items
- This new feature allows librarians to create and share “item templates” where one or more item field values can be set for a template. Templates can be applied on a one by one basis, or set for the remainder of the logged in session. Each template may be optionally shared ( read only ) to other catalogers. Librarians with the manage_item_editor_templates permission may edit any template regardless of who created it.
[24857] Add ability to group items for records
- This feature allows for libraries to group items within a record. A new system preference has been added for this feature, EnableItemGroups. This system preference, once enabled, will allow the library to group specific items on a record to each other. A library can name the group and add items from the same record to this group. From the record, a new tab will appear and display on that item if it is part of a group.

Circulation

[24860] Add ability to place item group level holds
- With this feature you can now place holds on groups of items. A group consists of multiple items of the same record, representing for example, all items of a specific volume. When a hold for an item group is placed, only items of the requested group will be able to fill the hold. The feature is enabled using the new EnableItemGroupHolds system preference. It also requires EnableItemGroups for managing item groups.
[28854] Add ability to create bundles of items for circulation
- This new feature adds the ability to create item bundles for loans.
- One can create a new collection level biblio record and add items to it as normal. Those items can then be converted to bundles by adding existing items to them using their barcodes. The items will be marked as ‘not for loan’ in their original parent records.
- Bundle items follow normal circulation rules for checkout. Upon check-in a new verification step is added where by the librarian is expected to scan each constituent item to verify it’s presence in the bundle. If an item is missing from the bundle it is marked as lost with a new lost – Missing from bundle value. If an item is found that is not expected to be in the bundle it it highlighted to the librarian after check-in so it can be placed to one side.
[30650] Add a curbside pickup module
- With this module staff and patrons will be available to manage curbside pickups from the OPAC and staff interface.
- It adds a new configuration page to the administration module which allows each library in an installation to set their own rules and time slots for scheduling pickups.
- If a library chooses to activate curbside pickups, they will be able to manage all stages to the process from within Koha: scheduling a pickup time, preparing items for pickup and completing pickups. Patrons can indicate that they have arrived at the library for their pickup through the OPAC.
- Use the CurbsidePickup system preference to enable this module.

ERM

[32030] Electronic resource management (ERM)
- This new module adds a mechanism to track the selection, acquisition, licensing, access, maintenance, usage, evaluation, retention, and de-selection of a library’s electronic information resources. These resources include, but are not limited to, electronic journals, electronic books, streaming media, databases, datasets, CD-ROMs, and computer software.

Patrons

[12446] Enable an adult to have a guarantor
- Before only categories of a certain type can be guarantees for other patron categories of certain types (Adult to child, organisation to professional). With this new feature it’s possible to define which patron categories can be guarantees independent of the category type. This enables relationships like adult to adult or organization to adult.
[23681] Make patron restrictions user definable
- This adds a new configuration page for managing user defined and Koha internal patron restrictions to the administration module.
- If the new system preference PatronRestrictionTypes is enabled, you will also be able to choose the restriction type when manually restricting a patron.

Searching

[17170] Add the ability to create ‘saved searches’ for use as filters when searching the catalog
- This patchset adds a new feature, the ability to save searches on the staff client and display them in the results page alongside facets (staff client and/or OPAC) as a search filter that can be applied to search result set.
- The feature is enabled/disabled by new system preference: SavedSearchFilters
- New filters can be added from the results page after a search, and there is an admin page for updating deleting and renaming filters.
- There is a new permission, manage_search_filters, to control management of these filters.
- New filters can be added that are not displayed along with facets, this allows for building custom links using these filters to keep URLs shorter

Staff interface

[15326] Add CMS feature
- This enhancement utilizes the additional contents feature to add custom pages to the staff interface and the OPAC in the user’s desired language.
[30952] New design for staff interface
- This is the result of a wide scale review of the staff interface user experience.
- A team of librarians, designers and developers has worked hard to refresh, modernize and increase consistency in the staff interface

- The edit link is now formatted as a button and moved into a column (similar to other areas), instead of being a text link in the order column.
[15348] Change/Edit estimated delivery date per order line
- This enhancement allows you to specify an estimated delivery date per order line. The specified estimated delivery date is also considered (alongside the calculated estimated delivery date, if no date has been specified) when searching for late orders and exporting late orders.

[31017] Add type field for vendors
- This enhancement adds a new field to record the vendor type when creating or editing vendors. This field can be used as a free text field, or a drop-down menu if there are authorized values in the VENDOR_TYPE authorized value category.
[31115] Additional fields for invoices
- This new feature adds the ability to define additional fields to store information about vendor invoices.
  There is a new ‘Manage invoice fields’ page in the acquisitions administration to configure the fields.
  Users can name additional fields, tie them to authorised values, and specify whether the fields can be searched in the acquisitions module.
  This also adds a new entry to the admin page for additional fields.

(In English, the word “print” is the same whether it is a verb (to print something) or a noun (a print of something), however, for other languages different words may be used. When the word is in a sentence, it’s not too difficult to translate, but in cases where the string to translate is simply “Print”, it is often used in different cases (noun or verb). For example: in French there are two different spellings, “Imprimer” or “Imprimé”.)

Lists

[11889] Option to keep public or shared lists when deleting patron

[30933] Add a designated owner for shared and public lists at patron deletion

If set to change the owner, the lists are transferred to the borrower number set in the new ListOwnerDesignated system preference.

MARC Authority data support

[30218] Add subfield g to 150 heading_fields
[30280] Support authority records with common subject headings from different thesaurus
- This enhancement adds support for displaying and linking to subject headings from different thesaurus when using Elasticsearch. The thesaurus used for the term is added to the authority record using 040$f. For the bibliographic record, set the second indicator to 7 for 650 and add the source to 650$2. For local terms, use 4 (Source not specified) as the indicator.
- Example for a bibliographic record:
  - 650 _ 0 $a Feminism
  - 650 _ 7 $a Feminism $2 sao
  - 650 _ 7 $a Feminism $2 barn
- The first example above is the LCSH term. The other two terms are from sao (controlled Swedish subject heading system) and barn (Swedish children subject heading system). These three are using the same TOPIC_TERM Feminism, but they belong to different thesaurus.

[21705] Map copyrightdate to both 260/264c by default for new MARC21 installations
- This enhancement adds a default mapping from 264c to biblio.copyrightdate for MARC21. Previously, it was only mapped to 260c. Now it is mapped to both.
  **This only affects new installations. For current installations, you need to add it manually through Administration > Koha to MARC mapping.
[25449] Make itemtype mandatory by default
[30430] UNIMARC XSLT : displaying field B_214

MARC Bibliographic record staging/import

[27421] Porting tools/stage-marc-import.pl to BackgroundJob

Notices

[19966] Add ability to pass objects directly to slips and notices
[26689] Monetary accounts notices should be definable at the credit_type/debit_type level
- This enhancement allows end users to define their account notices (print receipt and print invoice for example) at the debit type and credit type level.
- Simply add a new notice with code ‘DEBIT_your_debit_type_code’ or ‘CREDIT_your_credit_type_code’ to the notices and we will pick that over the existing default ‘ACCOUNT_DEBIT’ and ‘ACCOUNT_CREDIT’ notices.
[27265] process_message_queue.pl cron should be able to take multiple types as a parameter
- This patch adds the ability to specify several types or letter codes when running the process_message_queue script. This allows libraries to consolidate calls when some message types or letter codes are scheduled differently than others
[31626] Add letter ID to the message queue table
[31714] Add a more generic way to print patron slips
- This is a first step towards drying out our slip printing code. We add a new, modern, controller script that accepts any notice template to be passed to it for printing.
- Next steps would be to start migrating some of the old slips to use this controller and drop their respective controller scripts.

OPAC

[7960] Choice to not show the text labels for item types
- This enhancement adds the class “itypetext” around item type descriptions so they can be hidden with CSS. To hide the descriptions, add .itypetext { display:none; } to the OPACUserCSS (for the OPAC) or IntranetUserCSS (for the staff interface) system preferences.
[8305] Add an icon for iOS home screens
[8948] MARC21 field 787 doesn’t display
[22456] Allow patrons to cancel their waiting holds
- This enhancement allows patrons to cancel holds waiting for pickup from their account (summary > holds > request cancellation button), instead of having to contact the library (for example, by email, phone, or in person).
- This is enabled by setting rules by library, patron type, and item type. The rules are set from a new “Default waiting hold cancellation policy” section under Administration > Patrons and circulation > Circulation and fines rules.
- Cancellation requests are listed in a new tab “Holds with cancellation requests” under Circulation > Holds > Holds awaiting pickup.
[23538] Email library when new patrons self register
- This enhancement allows libraries to receive notifications when patrons self-register.
- This is enabled using the new system preference EmailPatronRegistrations (options are: none, email address of library, EmailAddressForPatronRegistrations, and KohaAdminEmailAddress) and a new notice (OPAC_REG).
- To use a specific email address for notifications, use the new system preference EmailAddressForPatronRegistrations.
- If verification is required for self-registrations (when PatronSelfRegistrationVerifyByEmail is enabled), then notifications are only sent to the library once the registration is confirmed.
[29144] Move branches.opac_info to AdditionalContents allowing multi language
- This reports moves the contents of column branches.opac_info to a HTML block under Additional contents, identified by the new location OpacLibraryInfo.
  This allows translation of this block too.
[29897] Display author identifiers for researchers
- This new enhancement adds the capability to list the different identifiers of authors. It is helpful for research publications for instance. It will add a new “Author identifiers” tab on the detail page (OPAC) of a bibliographic record, with the list of the authors and their identifiers. On the detail page of the authority record, the same identifier list will be displayed. The authority must have a 024$a (identifier) and 024$2 (source).
[29922] Group of libraries are now displayed in alphabetical order
- This fixes the display of library groups in the advanced search (Groups of libraries) for the OPAC and staff interface so that they correctly sort in alphabetical order. Before this:
  - OPAC: were sorted in the order library groups were added, group names with diacritics and umlauts (such as Ä or À) came last (after something starting with Z)
  - Staff interface: were sorted correctly, but had the same issue as the OPAC for group names with diacritics and umlauts
[30036] Add XSLT for authority results view in OPAC
- This enhancement enables the use of custom XSLT stylesheets for displaying OPAC authority search results.
[30195] Suggestion form in OPAC should use ISBN to FindDuplicate
[30508] Do not display OPAC message about block from holds when OPACHoldRequests is disabled
[30566] Incorporate link handling in OPAC’s biblio-title include
- Output of titles in the OPAC was centralized into an include file (biblio-title), but unlike the staff interface this didn’t include the option of adding a link to the default bibliographic view. This enhancement provides that option. It also updates OPAC pages where the biblio-title include was previously wrapped in an anchor tag, to add a link parameter: [% INCLUDE ‘biblio-title.inc’ link=> 1 %]
[30678] Add OCLC_NO as option to OPACSearchForTitleIn
- This enhancement to the OPAC detail page allows you to search WorldCat using the OCLC number. (Example: add an entry to 035$a (such as (OCoLC)62385712) and use {OCLC_NO} in the OPACSearchForTitleIn system preference.)
[30880] Expand OPACResultsUnavailableGroupingBy to have a ‘branch only’ option
[30927] Improve formatting or iCal files for checkout due dates
[31064] Local login is difficult to style using CSS
[31217] Fix Coce JavaScript to hide single-pixel cover images in the OPAC lightbox gallery
[31294] Article requests: Mandatory subfields in OPAC don’t show they are required
[31605] Improve style of OPAC suggestions search form
[31634] Add part_number and part_name in OPAC result browser
- This enhancement adds the title’s part number and part name in the OPAC result browser.
[31635] Empty title for current result in OPAC results browser’s tooltip on paging
[31672] Remove ‘Your’ from tab descriptions in OPAC patron account

Packaging

[21366] Add Plack reload

Patrons

[7660] Enhanced messaging preferences are not set when creating a child patron from the adult
[10950] Add preferred pronoun field to patron record
- This adds a new free text field ‘pronouns’ to the patron record. The pronouns also display prominently in the brief patron information section on the left side of the patron account pages.
[20439] SMS provider sorting
[21978] Add middle name field
- This adds a new free text field ‘Middle name’ to the patron record.
[29971] Remember selections across patron search pages
- This enhancement to patron search remembers selections across multiple pages of search results and multiple different searches. The selected patrons can be added to a patron list or submitted for merging. Selections can be cleared manually and are automatically removed upon logout. Previously, selections were only remembered for the current page of search results.
[30646] Add option to send WELCOME notice for new patrons added at first login via LDAP/SAML
- When LDAP or Shibboleth are used to create user accounts on first login, the WELCOME notice can be send automatically to the new users. This requires adding the new configuration option 1 to the respective configuration files.

Plugin architecture

[31894] Extend hold hooks with more actions
- This patch adds three more hooks to the existing “after_hold_action”, extending it to handle the different found values
  - “transfer” when a hold calls “set_transfer()” (found=T)
  - “waiting” when a hold calls “set_waiting()” (found=W)
  - “processing” when a hold calls “set_processing()” (found=P)
[31895] New account hook when adding credit
- This patch adds a new hook “after_account_action” with the action “add_credit”. This is triggered when a credit is added via for example PAYMENT or WRITEOFF.
[31896] New recall hook when adding recall
- This adds a new hook “after_recall_action” with the action “add”.

REST API

[22678] Set ‘Koha::Logger’ as the default mojo logger for the REST API
[26635] Expand coded values in REST API call
[30923] OAuth2 implementation is not experimental
- This enhancement removes the [EXPERIMENTAL] text from the RESTOAuth2ClientCredentials system preference description. OAuth2 has been in use by third parties to securely interact with Koha since its introduction in 2018.
[31128] Add effective_not_for_loan_status to API item objects
[31555] Getting holds via REST API needs edit_borrowers permission

Reports

[29579] Show saved SQL report ID in database query
- This enhancement shows a saved SQL report’s ID in the database process list (from example, “/* saved_sql.id: 123 */). This can help when troubleshooting reports that are causing issues, such as taking too long to run or taking up too many system resources.

SIP2

[20058] Option to use shelving location instead of homebranch for sorting
[31236] Add ability to send custom item fields via SIP using Template Toolkit
[31296] Add ability to disable demagnetizing items via SIP2 based on itemtypes

Searching

[23919] Make ISSN searchable with and without hyphen
- This enhancement enables searching by ISSN without using hyphens and using a space instead of the hyphen. This works in the advanced search (staff interface and OPAC) and item search (staff interface).
- It is enabled using a new system preference, SearchWithISSNVariations, with two options – “don’t search” (the default), and “search”.
[27136] Add additional languages
- Adds Cree, Afrikaans and Multiple languages, Undetermined and No linguistic content to our language definitions.
[27546] Add option to search within results on the staff interface
- This enhancement adds a new input above the search results allowing one to search within the results. The search box will take a query and add it as a limit to the previous search.
[30858] Add serial enumeration/chronology to itemsearch.pl
- This enhancement to the item search in the staff interface adds a serial enumeration/chronology (952$h) column to the search results and export.
[31213] When performing a basic search with no results, repeat the search with term quoted
- This enhancement adds a second, automatic, search with the search terms between quotation marks when a search returns no results.
- For example, searches with special characters don’t work with Elasticsearch.
- A search for Ivy + Bean will return no results. But a search for “Ivy + Bean” will return results.
- With this enhancement, if a user searches for Ivy + Bean without quotation marks and gets no results, Koha will automatically search for “Ivy + Bean” and return those results.
- This targets both Zebra and Elasticsearch, but is more relevant for Elasticsearch.

Searching – Elasticsearch

[27667] Display the number of non-indexed records
- This enhancement adds information about non-indexed records when using the Elasticsearch search engine on the About Koha > System information page.For example:
  - Records are not indexed in Elasticsearch
  - Warning 1 record(s) missing on a total of 435 in index koha_kohadev_biblios.record(s).
  - Warning 1 record(s) missing on a total of 1705 in index koha_kohadev_authorities.
[31687] Add see from and see also from tracings in Match index (Elasticsearch, MARC21)
- This enhancement adds see from and see also from terms for uniform title, chronological term, topical term, geographic name, and genre/form term to the Match index in Elasticsearch for MARC21. These will now be searchable in the Authorities module, by selecting the ‘Search all headings’ tab.
- Previously, only see from/see also from for personal names, corporate names, and meeting names were indexed and searchable this way.
[31689] Add see from tracings in Match-heading-see-from index (Elasticsearch, MARC21)
- This enhancement adds fields 430, 448, 450, 451, and 455 to the Match-heading-see-from.
- Previously, only 400, 410, and 411 were indexed.
[31690] Add see from tracings in See-from index (Elasticsearch, MARC21)
- This enhancement adds fields 450, 451, and 455 to the See-from index for MARC21.
- Previously, only 400, 410, 411, 430, 447, 448, and 462 were indexed.
[31691] Remove non-existent fields from the See-from index (Elasticsearch, MARC21)
- This enhancement removes fields from the See-from index that don’t exist in MARC21.
- The existing fields can be found here: https://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/ad4xx.html
[31693] Remove non-existent fields from the See-also-from index (Elasticsearch, MARC21)
- This enhancement removes fields from the See-from index that don’t exist in MARC21.
- The existing fields can be found here: https://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/ad5xx.html

[30462] Improve the default display for the background jobs queue management page
[30850] Add default mapping for biblio.author to 110$a (MARC21)

- This enhancement modifies the description of the ‘Ignore’ tab in MARC bibliographic and authority framework administration to add that not only does the ‘ignored’ subfield not appear in the editor, but the subfield will also be deleted from the record. This is the normal behavior of the ‘Ignore’ tab, it has not changed. Only the description was updated to reflect it’s actual behavior.

[30806] Use patron-title.inc in member-flags template
- This enhancement updates the template for the patron set permissions page (members/member-flags.pl) to use the patron-title.inc include wherever patron names are referenced.

The patron name is now displayed as “Set permissions for firstname lastname (patron card number), instead of “Set permissions for lastname, firstname”.
[30807] Use patron-title.inc in patron payments pages
- This enhancement updates the templates for patron accounting – make a payment tab and payment pages (pay and write off options) to use the patron-title.inc include wherever patron names are referenced.

- This fixes the cause of an error message that appears in the system logs every time that Tools > Catalog > Export data (/cgi-bin/koha/tools/export.pl) is accessed. The error message was “AH01215: Use of uninitialized value $record_type in string eq at /kohadevbox/koha/tools/export.pl line 43.: /kohadevbox/koha/tools/export.pl,…”.
