Hi, Daniel--
Although it's common for others systems to be able to copy LC call number information from a bib record 050 or 090 field for display, even pull or copy from those bib fields into item records, Koha doesn't do that, and the displayed call number is from the item record (stored in a 952 field, subfield o, i.e., letter "o"). This is also the field that is searched on in call number searches, so be sure it's formatted correctly for searching, sorting, etc. I'm not familiar with replacing records via Z39.50 (we use OCLC & export records), so I'm not sure if there's a way to overlay the call number in the item record via that process--perhaps someone else can let you know!
I hope this helps! Cheerio, h2
Hi, Thanks -- this is making a little more sense now I think, re biblio versus individual item. So, the 952 fields won't automatically populate -- so if I'd like to use LoC shelving call letter system, I should just copy/paste that into the item record's 952 o field? Thanks for your help!
