<p>Dear colegues,<br />
<br />
I have been using CDS/ISIS for years and exported near 30.000 records to KOHA without any problem nor using any other tool.<br />
The only problem could be on UTF-8 caracteres related with diacritics.<br />
Regards,<br />
<br />

<br />
I just prepared a documentation for the migration of bibliographic records in CDS/ISIS to MARC-21 using MarcEdit software.<br />
Many libraries are still using CDS/ISIS for record management and would like to convert their records to open source ILS like Koha.<br />
This document focuses on the conversion of CDS/ISIS data to MARC-21 for Koha. <br />
Migration from CDS/ISIS to MARC was not easy before. Certain useful scripts are now available for data migration between CDS/ISIS and Koha.<br />
Such processes are highly technical and not affordable for the library professionals who are not tech savvy.<br />
I hope that, this documentation will be helpful to convert your records from CDS/ISIS to Koha (ver. 3) open source ILS. <br />
<br />
I extent my thanks to Mr. Sandeep Bhavsar, Librarian, Dr.V.N.Bedekar Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai, who inspired me to write this documentation.<br />
I also extent my thanks to Mr. Amit Gupta, OSS Labs for editing this document. <br />
<br />
I expect your valuable feed back to enhance the usability of this document. <br />
<br />
