How do you create the filter? Thanks! Ed Edward J.

Koha works with it fine. I find the trick is to make sure what's in the Koha database and what's encoded in the barcode are the same. It is possible with itemInputBarcodeFilter processing. I've used that sys. pref. to strip leading spaces ( which I put in ) from some barcodes. If what you want is to be able to enter just the number, or the "T " and the number ( like from a barcode scanner ), then I think making a custom itemInputBarcodeFilter ( like I did to trim leading spaces ) would be a good solution.

bulkmarcimport.pl for MICROLIF.001 from Follett
by ISM KIS 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

I did convert the Follett file with the script given by Doug (Thanks) So I got the file ML.mrc (see attachment) But when I run the bulkmarcimport.pl this is the error I get: linux-teck:/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools # perl bulkmarcimport.pl -v 2 -c MARC21 -file /usr/share/koha/bin/migrationtools/ML.mrc -d deleting biblios Characteristic MARC flavour: UNIMARC .substr outside of string at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Charset.pm line 241, <GEN10> line 1. linux-teck:/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools # If I run the command with -s then the test is all ok and it says 16 records are processed. I'm probably just confused with UNIMARC and MARC21 Here is my question: 1) How do I know whether my file ML.mrc is UNIMARC or MARC21 ? 2) How do I know whether my Koha is running UNIMARC or MARC21 ? (Stupid question, yes, I did setup the system, but how can I check now?) Thanks for any help. Rudy Wuthrich Kodaikanal International School

Import MICROLIF.001 from Follett
by ISM KIS 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

I have just set up our Koha 3.00.01 server and tried to import the MARC records from Follett. But when I 'Stage for Import' it just stays at 0 percent. I'm an IT guy and not a librarian. Am I missing a step? Any ideas ?

Barcode Don't Found
by Roche III, Edward 29 Mar '09

29 Mar '09

I am sending to both lists in case this needs to be addressed with a program update. Every time I update our barcodes in Koha (T0012345 to T 12345) it no longer recognizes the barcodes when trying to check out. I have tried each of the prefix options and we even added a blank option but that still isn't working, I export the itemnumber and barcode, update the barcode and reimport to the DB to a temp table then update the items table with sql expression. The records are updated and then I run the following script: perl /usr/share/koha/bin/maintenance/sync_items_in_marc_bib.pl --run-update It runs for like 6 hours (almost 16k records) it gives following results: Embedded item synchronization report ------------------------------------ Number of bibs checked: 13214 Number of bibs modified: 13167 Number of item fields removed from bibs: 15698 Number of item fields added to bibs: 15698 Number of bibs with errors: 0 I go back into Koha and try to checkout and I get a yellowish box that say barcodes not found. I need to get this to work because rebarcoding is out of the question with the number of items we have in our library. Thanks in advance!

Video camera at Kohacon
by Chris Cormack 28 Mar '09

Hi all If there is anyone who owns a digital video camera and is coming to Kohacon. If they could bring their camera along that would be fantastic. We are getting lots of requests for video of the sessions from people who can't make it. I will bring candy from New Zealand as a reward for anyone who does. Thanks in advance Chris
