<div>Dear Koha Community,</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>It is our pleasure to announce that <a href="http://software.coop" target="_blank">software.coop</a> of Somerset, England and ByWater</div><div>Solutions LLC of Santa Barbara CA, USA, are partnering to bring Electronic Data</div>

<div>Exchange (EDI) to Koha.</div><div><br></div><div>EDI will greatly increase the functionality of the acquisitions module of Koha by</div><div>allowing a direct electronic exchange from one entity to another, making processes such</div>

<div>as billing and the transmission of purchase orders seamless. It may optionally accept</div><div>bibliographic records from a vendor, making cataloguing quicker. It was described in the</div><div>journal &quot;Program: electronic library and information systems&quot; Vol. 44 No. 3, 2010.</div>

<div><br></div><div>The EDI code, which was written by <a href="http://software.coop" target="_blank">software.coop</a>, will be rebased by ByWater</div><div>Solutions on the current head of the Koha project. The rebased code will be submitted for</div>

<div>possible inclusion in the 3.4 release of Koha.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div><div>-Ian</div><div><br></div><font color="#888888">-- <br>Ian Walls<br>Lead Development Specialist<br>
