Hello
This is my first question to the list since introducing myself a few months ago, so please forgive me if I’m asking a silly question, but I haven’t yet been able to find an answer out there.
I’m currently trying to set Koha up as a catalogue and access gateway to our eresources collection, as our current (proprietary) library system is a nightmare to import anything into. As a first attempt I have successfully imported nearly 3000 MARC21 bib records from one of our ebook suppliers into a test install of Koha (3.00.00.107, hope to upgrade soon!). However, when I search for any of the titles in the OPAC, I get the ‘Availability’ message ‘No items available’ in the brief results, and in the detail holdings tab I get ‘No physical items for this record’. The MARC records as supplied don’t have any item data, either in the Koha 952 item tag, or even item data I could map across in the 852, and I’m yet to hear from the supplier that they can supply item data.
These messages will be off-putting for most of our readers, many of whom are new to using libraries, and the vast majority probably won’t ask for help, so I need to find a way to sort this out.
How could I tackle this apart from a huge effort in reader education, modifying my copy of Koha, or individually creating thousands of items? I have a couple of ideas but don’t want to reinvent the wheel so would truly appreciate your help.
Thanks! Jos
