There has been some discussion about analytic records on the list before, but I'm not sure if anyone has done an implementation (please speak up if you have!). It seems to me that the key thing that needs to be done is linking the analytic biblio record to it's "parent" record. The MARC21 77x fields are designed to make those kind of links, but as of right now there is no specific way to work them into your Koha OPAC aside from using the XSLT display options. I'm certainly interested in developing more integrated Koha support for bibliographic record relationships, which would include not only analytic records, but also FRBR relationships and any other kind of relationship the library may need (it should be user-configurable). I think that kind of additional tool would make things much easier for a lot of libraries. Cheers, -Ian 2010/3/25 Nicole Engard <nengard@gmail.com>
This is not a Koha record - but one I worked on when I was a cataloger. Sounds like you want to see what's called an analytical record (not sure why it's called that) - which is a record for an article in a journal or magazine.

Is there anyone who includes journal articles in their catalogue and uses MARC21 format? I’d like to compare notes about what MARC fields to use – especially anyone who has a Z39.50 server.
Thank you.
