Hi Verónica, Does this mean I would first catalogue the serial as an item, then I would catalogue each article completely separate, as an additional item in our catalogue, and reference the serial using 773? This way when a patron searches subject (or keywords?), both the serial and the specific article within that serial edition would be found? Because a serial has multiple articles with multiple subjects/keywords, might it be advisable to enter lots of details on the serial entry? Or, is this generally not necessary and one should only need enter specifics (subject/keywords) against the article entry. In addition to serials with articles, we have lots of loose articles that are not physically located inside the original serial. These loose articles are bound in ring-binder notebooks. I suppose in this case I would reference the ring-binder notebook in 773? Thanks, Nelson

Hello Nelson,
what you need is analytical cataloging. It's quite simple. Use 1XX and 245 as usual for author and title of the article. The information about the serial is recorded in the field 773 - Host Item Entry (http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd773.html). You can add subject headings as usual in 650.

1) We would like to catalogue individual articles/chapters within some of our serials/journals/periodicals. I understand that using MARC 5xx or 6xx is a preferred method. I've been unable to find examples of this on the liblime demos thus far, and would like to see how this works both from an administrator's standpoint and from a patron's.
2) After seeing an article, I'd also love to be able to Search for this article to see whether I could find it in the catalogue, alongside books.
3) I'd like for patron searches to include books, serials and articles within serials, *within a single search of keyword, subject and title*. I'd perhaps like this to be the default search, rather than an Advanced Search. Is Koha configurable in this way (without lots and lots of effort)?
Could anyone point me to an example or two, especially relating to point 1?
