Thank you Henry, I'll try that workaround!

As a workaround, we have added the 264 field as an additional mapping for biblio.copyrightdate using the ‘Koha to MARC’ mapping tool in the administration module. This seems to work for us although there may be unintended consequences that I’m not yet aware of. Here’s the 19.05 manual entry for Koha to MARC mapping: https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkoha-comm… The manual says “It is possible to link more than one MARC field to a database field. For example, you could link both 260$a and 264$a to the biblioitems.place field.” I hope that helps! Kind regards Henry Henry Bolshaw Systems Librarian Library, House of Lords, London, SW1A 0PW

Upon further digging, I found that the date would only display in the report for bib records with a 260 field, but not a 264. In the 19.05 SQL schema comments, biblio.copyrightdate is "publication or copyright date from the MARC record." Can anyone confirm that this means MARC 260 exclusively? Would it be possible to expand the schema mapping to include the 264 field(s) for the sake of RDA cataloging? Hope y'all are well, thanks for your time and attention!

Can facets use search categories instead of item types?
by Michael Kuhn 26 Apr '20

26 Apr '20

Hi In Koha menu "Administration > Item types" you can create item types and group them as search categories. Our library wants to show its facets according to the existing 4 search categories instead of the 22 item types. In our library we have 22 item types like the following: Code: ASO Description: Aufsatz // Sammelband [online] Search category: Online Ressource Code: AUF Description: Aufsatz // Sammelband [print] Search category: Aufsatz Code: AZO Description: Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [online] Search category: Online Ressource Code: AZP Description: Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [print] Search category: Aufsatz The facets do show these item types according to their descriptions, thus Aufsatz // Sammelband [online] Aufsatz // Sammelband [print] Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [online] Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [print] But the library would like to have facets just like the following according to the search category: Aufsatz Online Ressource As I found in the Zebra configuration the facets are actually using the content of MARC 942$c (the code of the item type) and displays the respective description. Actually I don't see a way how to use the search category instead - but maybe there is one, that we can't see? My solution would be to * create new item type codes according to the current search categories * delete the current search categories * change all bibliographic records using SQL (still to be written...) by putting all content of MARC 942$c/952$y in another field (e. g. 942$d) and instead fill 942$c/952$y with the new item type code Do you maybe have a better idea to achieve our goal?
