Dear All, As you may be aware that we are conducting a conference cum workshop ( https://elpesnitr.wordpress.com/ ) at NIT Rourkela during 20-24 May 2019. We are trying to extend a lot of help during the entire event so that participants can be empowered with a lot of skills and use the tools and technology in their libraries just after attending the event. Therefore we will be helping the user for converting their excel or other data in Koha compatible format and set up the entire koha as per their library requirements in such a way that it can be immediately used in their libraries without any issues i.e. we will make koha ready to use in the libraries as per requirements. Hope many will try to avail this opportunity. Please contact us if you have any such data in advance. With Regards, Vinod Kumar Mishra, Assistant Librarian, Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL), NIT Rourkela, Sundergadh-769008, Odisha, India.
