The call for proposals to host KohaCon27, the Koha Community's annual worldwide international conference, is underway!

Each KohaCon is made possible thanks to organizations willing to welcome the community and coordinate the event, with the support and experience of the wider Koha community.

Add your proposal to the wiki page (which outlines the required information and hosting guidelines) by 15 March 2026 at 23:59 UTC at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaCon27_Proposals

Whilst watching some of today's #KohaCon25 talks, I also added the following new sources to @ExhibitExplorer :

* Canterbury Photography Museum
* Dunedin Public Libraries
* Kaipūpū Sanctuary
* Otautau Museum
* Our Health Journeys
* Rotorua Library - Te Aka Mauri
* Te Whare o Rehua Sarjeant Gallery
* Wellington Museum
* Western Bay District Council
* Wyndham & Districts Historical Museum

I think I need to fix some processing of sources with macrons in the name though so that might not show up until I get to that.

Good to see #Wellington hasn't changed much. It's still nice and windy.
