You would need a 952 for each item on the MARC record to import all your items. If you have some of your data in excell etc with barcodes you may be able to bring some of that into MARC edit to build your MARC records without retyping all of it. David Schuster Artistyc wrote:
Will adding 952s to MARC within Koha's internal editor after the records are staged in the reservoir or in the main collection also add holding Items or does it require the Import script to update the holdings?

If you use MARC Edit, or some other utility, and add multiple 952 tags to each record, that should add an equivalent number of additional items.
I believe the minimum requirements include the $a, $b, and $y subfields, but you can obviously add barcodes ($p), location ($c), or whatever.

I'm a librarian for a school which manages all student texts. Needless to say I have a large number of each textbook, somewhere around 150 to 200 for each. We had previously stored these in a Non-marc based access database. I'm curious if there is a way to add multiple items simultaneously. through the GUI it is 1 at a time and the MARC import utility looks like it would require me to make a marc record for each when all I want is an item note. is this possible? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Koha-Bulk-Addition-of-Items-tp24186225p24186225.html Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
