Hi Fred You might be able to write a report to get all biblio with no items attached, of a certain type and then use that list of biblionumbers in the bulk biblio delete. Hope this helps Chris On 30 August 2019 1:51:31 AM NZST, "King, Fred" <Fred.King@Medstar.net> wrote:
Esteemed Colleagues,
My library has a collection of about 5000 online books that are in Koha with bib records and no items. The publisher periodically archives titles so they're no longer available, and I have a list of them that I'd like to remove from Koha. The problem is that my list consists of ISBNs and that there are over 450 of them. I could search and delete one-by-one, but that's an awful lot of searching and deleting. Is there an easier way?
We're on Koha 17.05* and Ubuntu 16.04.
*I know, I know, but I'm hoping to get a new server before I upgrade.

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time. --Sir John Lubbock, The Use of Life (1894)
