I've now got a pretty basic MARC converter built that will take all existing records in the biblio, biblioitems, items tables and convert them to MARC records. I stuck pretty much with the mapping I sent in my previous post, since nobody pointed out any glaring errors. Item holdings information is stored in tags 852 and 876 with a linkage number in subfield 8 to tie the two tags together.

will now point you to record 221 by default which has 6 items.
This converter uses the beginnings of a Catalogue.pm module that I'm working on. The newBiblioItem() and newItem() subroutines are fairly complete for the MARC side. The Koha side should be much easier to write.
Wow, Youve certainly been very busy :-) Its looking great, wrt to ur previous email, i couldnt spot any other areas that MARC will affect apart from the ones you had already picked out. Chris -- Chris Cormack Programmer 025 500 789 Katipo Communications Ltd chris@katipo.co.nz www.katipo.co.nz
