Hi to the list, My name is Robert Flach, and I'm the new librarian for a small church library that was on a card-catalogue system and then managed by several people who didn't keep up with said catalog. I've gotten koha installed (ubuntu package version), and mostly configured. I've purchased a barcode scanner and receipt printer and have them working as well. I would seem to be on my way. So my first project is to do a complete inventory, and that starts with transferring all records into the electronic system from the card catalog and getting them barcoded. The big challenge I have is with cataloging non-traditional books. Basically, I can handle adding records when I can find a MARC Record that I can download through Z39.50/SRU, but the church library has a very large contingent of materials that don't have isbn's and don't exist in any Z39.50 db. Lot's of pamphlets and small self-published books and the like. I was looking for a solution that would give me a super simplified entry form for these types of materials that would match the info that I have available in the card catalogue (title, author, subject, dewey #, section, barcode), and which would be halfway readable and usable by my children helpers who are helping me inventory and catalog everything. I could live with a few extra fields, but even the most simplified MARC-looking record interface is daunting for them (and for me for that matter, though I can get by and have been reading about marc). I saw a post on the mailing list from some time ago where someone had provided an SQL dump of their super simplified BRF Framework that seemed to be just what I would want, but it was for koha v3.2 or so, and I have v18.05. I did a test import after backing up, and it definitely wouldn't import. So, with all that as background, my question is: Is there a place where these types of things--bits and pieces that work for particular purposes that can be imported easily--are shared regularly? If not, does anyone have something similar to that dump but for v18.05 that you are already using with your non-marc librarians? Something that leaves off all the marc information (even if they fields are still being stored behind the scenes to a marc21 format record of course, and just let's them enter the information that they understand with labels that they understand?
