So, that's why I'm here. Now, my question is this: I would like to import authority records that I download form the US Library of Congress. It is my understanding that the only way to do this in Koha is using the bulkauthimport.pl <http://bulkauthimport.pl> script, right? OK, here's the part where I'm embarrassed for being such a noob... How do I do that? I know how to download the MARC record, and I assume I run the script from the command line and not from the Web interface, but I don't know who I need to be logged in as and how to run the script or to point it to the file I want to import. Is this something someone can explain to me? I hope it's not bad form to ask such a basic question.
Thanks for any help you can provide, John While you can use that script from the command line, I would suggest using the tools in the web interface. Go to Tools->Stage Marc Records For Import. It should be fairly self explanatory.
Hope that helps, Braedon
