[Koha-devel] Questions from a small library ...

Hi all,

Some questions re enhancements from a small library, that I thought 
might be worth sharing, to see if others have the same thougths - or if 
it's just them....

1/. Auto Complete for Subjects
So they are wondering wether they could start typing in a subject and 
ones that match would come up in the list...

2/. Circulation - use titles as well as numbers?
So for libraries that doen't really make a lot of use out of numbers (ie 
don't have barcodes and barcode readers) could the input screen that 
wants the barcode accept a title as well/instead?  Wouldn't work on a 
bigger library where there is more than one copy of a book I assume, but 
   would be useful for small ones possibly?

3/. Does the new version have a location field for items - as well as a 
branch?  I can't remember - I had a feeling it does (so location is 
"shelf 5" or similar?)

Cheers
R
