KOHA is widely used library automation software in the world with provisions for all library operations. This paper examines the implementation of Koha in Wollega University Library the challenges faced in the implementation of Koha and provides solutions to some of the challenges faced. This paper aims to elaborate the method of installation of KohaKoha, steps for data migration from Excel to KOHA and upgrading process of KOHA version from 17.05 to 19.05.05. This is a case study conducted at Wollega University, Nekemte. The paper identifies several issues concerning data migration within a local scenario and elaborates how Koha software installed and customised for university needs. The lesson learnt and the experience gained would help in similar exercises elsewhere.Keywords

Academic institutions worldwide focused on providing a platform for students' integrated learning experience to enhance their skills and increase employability. School of Mechanical Engineering is making continuous efforts to provide integrated learning experiences for UG program students by designing Integrated Learning experience by activity based learning approach. This work aims to provide integrated knowledge of courses such a s manufacturing Technology and Metrology, which are part of the curriculum. The course Manufacturing Technology and Metrology and Quality engineering are considered for this work. These courses' knowledge plays a vital role in students' professional lives when employed in manufacturing industries. This initiative's main objectives are to provide an integrated learning experience, i.e., integration of manufacturing and measurement process, which are essential stages of product development. An Activity is given to the students to compare and analyze the process capabilities of traditional and advanced machine tools such as conventional Lathe and Computer Numerical Control (CNC). One batch of students used a conventional lathe machine, and the other batch used the CNC lathe machine. The students manufactured the part and collected the data (dimensions) about the part, analyzed the data through MINI-TAB software, and finally concluded about traditional and advanced machines' capabilities to manufacture parts according to specification. Through this, the students can establish integrated knowledge between the Manufacturing Technology and Metrology and Quality Engineering courses they have learned in isolation. These courses spread across different semesters. The performance indicators (PIs) of the graduate attribute (GA) of ABET program outcome '4' were underlying the motivators while designing the activity.Keywords
