We use SCIS web for our Z39.50. We subscribe yearly. I zap the ISBNs into a plain text document upload to SCISweb and it's ready to load into Koha in seconds as a MARC record. We do 100s of books at a time. Then all we have to do is put in our local information. I'm located in Australia, not sure if this service is available world wide.

We have been using the Seattle Public library Z39.50 server and it finds most of what we want. There are some books that are not found. Specifically this one, 978-0060573829. Does anybody know of a good server I could use for children's books? I tried the Madison WI public library server but it times out for me.
I never got a response about my question if there was a way to figure out if anybody was logged on the Koha staff client. Seems like this would be a useful addition to Koha.
Thanks, Paul

We had a library severely damaged in a flood that had to catalogue about 7-10k items. Volunteers went through boxes, scanning the ISBN and a barcode into a text file and then we used MARCEdit to batch look up the isbns and used a simple perl script to auto generate items then cleaned up the not found by hand.
Happy to share scripts, rough as they are, if you are interested

I would appreciate any tips, hints or suggestions for re-cataloguing a 7000 item library.
At the moment, an item is scanned and then the record updated via Z39.50 but this is a slow process. What other approaches are there?
Thank you, Clint.
Hi Clint, One possibility is to compile of file of ISBNs and submit it to your national library (Te Puna in your case). They could provide you with a file of MARC records. Matching on title and author might also be possible. There might be a fee involved and you still have to create items locally, but its quicker than cataloguing individually. Hope this helps.

Perfect! Thanks so much Riley. Ohiolink seems to have what we need.
Apparently nobody knows how to determine if any library staff is using the staff client. Seems like this might be a useful feature. Maybe just store log on date/time in the db for a user?
Thanks, Paul

The best way to get attention for that is to lodge an enhancement request in bugzilla: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/ Patches are welcome too. :)
