You don't need to fill in every field, just the ones that are appropriate to your needs http://www.loc.gov/marc/uma/ might help. Also this lists minimal levels http://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/nlr/nlr.html On Mon, Jan 10, 2011 at 7:55 AM, SlyzertVoltrond <maxwell.sama@gmail.com> wrote:
Greetings,
We found it very confusing to add a new authority record for Personal Name(and others as well, I guess) in Koha. Do we really need to fill out all those fields? Can't we make just having tab 1 on display, because that's actually the record we want to add?
Would appreciate it if someone could explain how Authorities work in Koha.
