Re: [Koha] Question about Z39.50 import
by Steven F.Baljkas 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

Tuesday, July 24, 2007 1:49 CDT Hi, Jim, That was a really interesting question and while I'm waiting with you and others for the official answer from the cognoscenti, I thought I could point out that utilities like the MARCEdit program can strip out fields that you don't want in your records easily enough. Just an observation. Cheers, Steven F.

Patch to Members.pm to fix Joing/Expiry Date errors
by Andrew Yager 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hi, I've just patched Date.pm and Members.pm to fix Joining/Expiry date problems against 2.2.9. These changes mean that Members.pm no longer needs to make use of Date::Manip functions during member creation. These patches may help someone else running the current release version. It seems it has been fixed in cvs head.

Export holdings information from Chancery Library Pro
by Andrew Yager 21 Jul '07

21 Jul '07

Hi, I'm currently migrating from Library Pro to Koha, and I've managed to get all the bibliographic information from Library Pro into Koha, but I'm struggling as far as Holdings information. Does anyone have a good way to extract the holdings information from Library Pro, and then match it with the corresponding biblio record in Koha? I've opened the MARC export using MarcEDIT and as far as I can see there is no holding information there. At the moment I'm thinking I have to do some sort of text export from Library Pro and then write a script to somehow match it up - but I can't work out what fields would be what. The other option is to spend a few weeks re-entering all of the holdings information into Koha, but even as a small library (around 15000 books) this will take quite a while. Thanks in advance, Andrew

Re: [Koha] Update-handling periodicals
by BWS Johnson 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Salvete! > I thought my solution to handling periodicals in a small public library might be worth sharing on the list. I was half-awake yesterday morning when I started re-thinking the process. I do all my initial cataloging in Millennium as I contribute records to MaineCat, a shared statewide database so our stuff can be requested by other Maine libraries. Since nearly every periodical is represented in the master database, I have imported them into Koha via Z39.50. Since issues get discarded rather quickly due to shelving constraints, I decided to use my spine label template to create very simple generic barcodes (GM1, GM2, GM3, etc.) It took about ten minutes to create and print 300. > I'm adding issues, using the date as the call # and slapping one of the generic barcodes on the back. While I have to type them in as opposed to scanning, it still makes for a quick and simple procedure once I have the initial import of bib records done and the backlog of current issues added. I salute you, Sir, both for your cunning method of handling serials and more importantly for your contribution to MaineCat. I can't help but relate to you and the rest of the list that that is the catalogue of choice for me in terms of swiping records. The quality by and large is outstanding. Thank you so much for engaging in the sluggery that is duplication of bibliographic information. Cheers, Brooke @ Hinsdale MA
