Plano ISD - I find records in Biblios and other Z target locations and generally export them out of Biblios. Biblios still has a problem with & issues. We generally import them into MarcEdit for editing as it is more of a notepad editor and has LOTS more features etc... I've been able to make a connection with MarcEdit to Koha and played some with that, but havn't actually done anything further as far as pushing them back to Koha after the edit etc via Z3950 - which from my understanding of Terry's weblog can be done. I know MarcEdit is not fully open source, but sure is a great cataloging tool! The only main drawback I have when doing original cataloging in MarcEdit is there is no authority file to automatically pull in the authorities etc... but then again the authority file in Koha is questionable anyway. More than you probably wanted to know. David Schuster Cab Vinton wrote:
We typically download records in bulk from our State Library's Union Catalog (New Hampshire), then edit as needed using MarcEdit before importing into Koha.
The State Library uses a Dynix system which makes it easy to save records to a list & then export in MARC format.
For one-off jobs we import the records individually using Koha's Z39.50 tool.
