https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29659 Bug ID: 29659 Summary: QR Code Accompanying material Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: new feature Priority: P5 - low Component: Cataloging Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: infoscienceaddict@gmail.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org CC: m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl Some newer printed book editions include QR codes linking to sound recordings of the content or other material. Could there be a way to add these QR codes in the bibliographic record so that users can actually scan and listen to / watch / see the content (provided that all rights are reserved etc.)? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

One can scan and store in some MARC field. Then in my opinion displaying a QR code in OPAC is not better than an hyperlink since user is already on a web page. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

But if you really want to display the QR-code, maybe you could add it as a local cover image? (One scenario: The OPAC is displayed in a kiosk setup in the library, where you do not want patrons to be able to click on anything that takes them outside the OPAC. But letting them scan the QR-code on their mobile device and enjoy the content there might be desirable.) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29659 --- Comment #3 from Afroditi Fragkou <infoscienceaddict@gmail.com> --- Maybe I lack some knowledge so my understanding is poor, but when I have a QR code printed on the book, don't I need a qr reader to see the url it leads to? How can I do that using my regular client pc, so that I can add it in the bibliographic record? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29659 --- Comment #4 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- It looks like there are barcode scanners that can read QR codes you could use at a normal computer to 'translate' the QR code to an URL. Maybe there are also web apps that can use your laptop camera or webcam? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
