https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41186 --- Comment #2 from cgresser <cgresser@jesuit.org.uk> --- Thank you, Owen. It's always good to know why something has been implemented in a certain way. Promoting books which are purchasable by Amazon should be in their interest, of course, but I can think of legal hawks who would have a field day pulling this apart. If for Aspen local images are stored, maybe there can be a rethink for Koha? With regard to how Koha might be able to search the internet for covers. It might need to be semi-manual/semi-automatic process, and one could use "crowdsourcing" to achieve this: 1. A process in Koha checks for cover image. 2. If no cover image, to search the web by ISBN for an image. [this won't work for many pre-1970s books, as without ISBNs, but it would tackle 50+ years of books/book covers!] 3. If image found, show on OPAC as "unapproved". 4. Two humans needing to confirm that the cover is appropriate/correct. 5. Some of these humans could be end-users of Koha; they would need to be logged into their local system to approve a cover. Complicated maybe, but maybe not impossible to code? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
