Re: [Koha-devel] Koha-devel Digest, Vol 203, Issue 10
Hi Katrin, It could be the case that it is tied to some localized configuration that we're using. Regardless, my worry is that changes to MARC may cause trickle-down changes to our implementation of Koha. Additional context, I'm new to my position, less than 12 weeks here. But the non-profit I work for has been using Koha for many years, so it's quite possible, likely even, that the institutional knowledge about our implementation has evaporated. I discovered the recent LoC change to 856 while researching our 2nd issue. How to ensure that the links for cover thumbnail images coming out of Koha have the alt text necessary for accessibility compliance.

Hi all, this cycle has been very busy and all of a sudden, it is ending!
This are the preliminary dates so you are aware of:
* Oct 28th - "Soft" feature freeze, nothing big or with high risk of side-effects will be included into the final release if not marked as Passed QA * Nov 3-5 - "Hard" feature freeze, nothing considered as an improvement will be pushed if not marked as Passed QA * Nov 10th - String freeze, draft of release notes published * Nov 17th - Only bug fixes considered major, critical or blocker will be pushed * Nov 25th - Final release
PM me if you have any comments.

Hi Jacob, Koha does get updates to the MARC21 frameworks with new fields/subfields and other changes at times, but usually those changes are only made for 'new installations' and don't affect any installations updating. This means your frameworks would remain unchanged by updates. You might want to have a look at the *XSLT* system preferences. If there is a local customization for cover images, you might be able to find the path to the files there to start your investigation. You then might also be able to implement an alt text. Hope this helps, Katrin On 18.10.22 14:40, Jacob Jett wrote:
