We are using a simple Access db for our aquistions at the moment but intend to use koha. What is the way to set up the data so that we can import it to koha? At present, the fields are: AccessionID DateAquired Author Title Publisher ISBN PublicationDate Cost PurchaseSource Department There are about 6000 books entered. Any comments/help/suggestions welcome. Please keep in mind I'm an IT guy not a Librarian. Thanks
The best solution is to transform your datas into an iso2709 file, then import them into Koha with bulkmarcimport. I *MAY* provide such a tool in the future (2-3 months) (i'm waiting for a customer decision : he want's me to help him migrating his DB, that is CSV exportable. If I do the job, scripts will be GPL as for anything I do :-) ) -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)
