<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Good
morning, <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Thanks
to Bernardo, Ian and Lenora for their help yesterday with my bulkmarcimport
problem. One of the tips I received alerted me to the fact that I did not
have a 952 $a AND $b in my MARC records. I only had the $b (permanent
location), populated with my library code “Cary”. I have been
confused by this $a and $b thing all along (and still am – more on this
below). I edited my MARC to include $a, then tried importing the records
again, and this time the records were loaded (thanks everyone!) although items
were not. For each of my 23 MARC records, I received a variation of this
error: <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>“</span><span
style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>.Item not added (bib 10, item tag #1,
barcode 100034): invalid homebranch”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>So, I take
this to mean that not only do I need a $a, but it needs to be populated before
I import the record if I also want to add the item. Is this
correct? Can my $a and $b be the same code? I am a single location,
no branches or anything, which is why I had thought that only one or the other
was needed, but not both. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>If there is
someplace in the sys preferences where I specify the $a, I do not know where
this is. I see that I have to put in the library code, which I did, and
then this is identical to the code that I put into my $b. Do I just add
$a using MARCedit and add a code to all records there? I had left $a
blank when I edited it before the successful import. I hope I am being
clear.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
