Hello Aida, I suggest you look here: https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/administration.html#edit-fr... Things to look for: - Mandatory - check the field and subfield for mandatory flags and remove them if not necessary - Managed in tab - you can choose 'ignore' to remove the subfield completely, however, be very cautious because that can cause data loss - Visibility - uncheck 'Editor' to remove the subfield from the cataloguing form, unlike the 'Managed in tab: ignore' above, this will not cause data loss, so is a better choice, in my opinion, if you're not absolutely sure of what you're doing Also, when you edit MARC frameworks, make sure to run the test after https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/administration.html#marc-bi... I hope this helps, Caroline On 2023-03-21 08:14, library@ssst.edu.ba wrote:
Hi everyone,
I'm writing to ask for some help cataloging in Koha. I am having trouble getting it to save any records without Koha throwing up errors, and while I'm trying to follow the manual, I'm afraid the amount of information there is overwhelming. Especially as it's been so long since I used any marc bibliographic formats.
So, I created a new framework based on the default one and named it Books, Booklets, Workbooks. I had tried importing records via Z39.50 and had no success in saving the record because of the errors (especially Tab 4 Series.
I then tried and adding them manually, where I only filled in the relevant fields - I do not need e.g. the music incipit or a fingerprint identifier for a hardcopy textbook. It s not possible to delete tags I don't need within the BBW framework.
The fields I have in our current system are the following; it's very minimal:
Author – person Author – corporate body Title Type of material Media object URL Language Publish date Publication and manufacture Physical description Other authors – person Content ISBN Notes Subject headings Uncontrolled subject terms UDC
For each material copy, I can add the status (for outside loan or reading room use, lost, withdrawn), location, call number, and inventory number.
How do I customize my framework so I can add my textbooks quickly and easily? Are there any sections of the manual I should look into more closely? Thank you in advance!
Best regards
Aida Đikić
