Enabling Amazon Indian Book Cover Images in Koha 18.11 or Above Version
Koha can display book cover images in search results by fetching the images from Amazon, if you enable the OPACAmazonCoverImages preference in Koha. Furthermore, clicking on the image sends the user to the Amazon site for find more details about the book like author name and ISBN and so on.
Uses This Feature:
- In our libraries we have already entered more than 2000 above books are in koha, We don’t have to upload each book cover images separately in koha, Just enabling amazon locale settings.
- If We can enabled,we can see easily the book title and Price, ISBN details in koha Staff Interface or OPAC clicking on the image after enabling the amazon locale settings.
Change your setting in KOHA:
Step 1 - Go to Administration -> Global System preferences -> Enhanced content.
Step 2 - Enable the OPACAmazonCoverImages preference.
Step 3 - Enter the Below ID in the AmazonAssocTag preference.
kohageek-21
For India 21 is tracking id for amazon.in, For USA Tracking ID is 20 Like that every country had separate amazon ID.
Step 4 - Now Confirm that you can select "Indian" for the AmazonLocale preference.
Step 5 - Select "Indian" and save.
Step 6 - Open a record in the OPAC and confirm that the cover image links to Amazon.in
Before koha Version 18.11 we using amazon.com domain book cover images in INDIA, This details is not useful for us why because we using Indian Rupees there Amazon.com shows Dollars we (librarians) very hard to convert the book prices while we purchasing the books in India.
