| Description |
|
The Koha community is working on this very neat shared information repository: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Mana_central_database .. if FOLIO were to support sharing to/from this, it could increase the size of the community to everyone's benefit. We should consider possible use cases and where such support might fit in the architecture. |

Interesting idea, and it makes sense that they would start with serials issue prediction and enumeration – in my experience that has been a real troublesome spot. Sebastian Hammer: how did you come across this? is this something that is being actively worked on? The Koha RFC is about 14 months old and the description wiki page that you linked to hasn't been substantially updated in 8 months. |

Paul Poulin from Biblibre is one of the leaders of the effort. They presented the latest at Bibliostar. Here is also a bit in the Koha newsletter: https://koha-community.org/koha-community-newsletter-march-2017/#mana. |

Very interesting – thanks for the additional details, RonB. This does sound like an area of common interest with the Koha community. |
