Hi Fred, sorry, you lost me a little bit here :( But maybe these hints can still be helpful: When exporting records without items, make sure you uncheck the "libraries" at the top section of the form. They act as a filter on the library information in the items and will filter out all record without items, when there is one or more selected. To find your e-books, you could do something like: SELECT biblionumber FROM biblio_metadata WHERE ExtractValue(metadata,'//datafield[@tag="942"]/subfield[@code="c"]') = "EBOOK" Hope this helps, Katrin On 03.09.19 19:17, King, Fred wrote:
Hi Katrin and the rest of the Koha world,
Curiouser and curiouser...
Possible clue: I started out using 3.12 and I've upgraded the same database since then. Eventually when I can replace the server I'll probably start with a fresh installation.
Pretty obvious: I don't know SQL very well. On to the puzzle:
Here's one of the records, biblio 13098 (below my signature). I downloaded the whole batch from Rittenhouse and added Koha-specific things, including EBOOK in the 942$c field.
If I put the ISBN-10, ISBN-13, or the biblio into the search box, I get the record.
Here's the original script George sent me, which worked on a few of the ISBNs. Unfortunately, I didn't export the records before I deleted them, so I can't compare those with the ones that didn't delete. I replaced ISBN-1, ISBN-2, etc., with the real ISBNs.
SELECT biblioitems.biblionumber, biblioitems.isbn FROM biblioitems WHERE (biblioitems.isbn LIKE "ISBN-1") OR (biblioitems.isbn LIKE "ISBN-2") . . . etc.
When I run this report I get the titles and a URL with the bib number, including 13098:
SELECT CONCAT('<a href="http://', (SELECT value FROM systempreferences WHERE variable='staffClientBaseURL'), '/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=', biblionumber, '">', biblionumber, '</a>') AS 'biblionumber', title FROM biblio WHERE biblionumber NOT IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items)
I went to the Query MARC section and tried this script, which brought up the ISBN for biblio 13098:
SELECT ExtractValue(( SELECT metadata FROM biblio_metadata WHERE biblionumber=13098), '//datafield[@tag="020"]/subfield[@code>="a"]') AS ITEM
HOWEVER.....
This script from the reports library doesn't bring up EBOOKs. Is it because it starts out with select from items?
SELECT items.price,items.replacementprice,biblio.title,biblio.author,items.itemcallnumber FROM items LEFT JOIN biblioitems ON (items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber) LEFT JOIN biblio ON (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber) WHERE items.homebranch=<<Home branch|branches>> ORDER BY items.itemcallnumber ASC
And when I go to Tools, Export Data there doesn't seem to be any way to export biblio 13098. I've tried From biblio number 13098 to 13098, Item type EBOOK, I uploaded a file with 13098 on one line--each time it comes up with a MARC file with zero bytes. If I export without any restrictions, it includes everything except the ebooks.
What I'm probably going to do is undo the import of all the 5000 or so R2library MARC records, download the current set, and start fresh. That will work, but it's not an especially elegant solution. Still, if someone can figure out why these records aren't showing up, I'd love to know.

A library in the middle of a community is a cross between an emergency exit, a life-raft and a festival. They are cathedrals of the mind; hospitals of the soul; theme parks of the imagination.

Hi Fred,
did you set the item type EBOOK in 942$c by chance? If yes, then the itemtype search will find them even if they are no items and we can also craft a SQL query to find them.
isbn.biblioitems shoudl be set from the data in your bibliographic record independent of existing items. Can you tell us what you tried?
The 'Query MARC' section of the reports library might give you some pointers: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wiki.koha-2Dcommunity.org_wiki_SQL-5FReports-5FLibrary-23Query-5FMARC&d=DwIGaQ&c=RvBXVp2Kc-itN3g6r3sN0QK_zL4whPpndVxj8-bJ04M&r=vKh6XwOmjyC51IkP1OfsdjQZoWT2vpi6VZl8El8EPRI&m=PyB66W6hWy8SfdIcAXTzwY-mYfpOQmsCsT3zjci0LJ0&s=QS-gvkNeaydpkDejg4ytJ9iYYV58FUEKwDSLhggIQ_E&e=

Thanks to Chris and a script from George Williams, it worked like a charm.
Almost. With a few of them.
After a lot of trial and error, I think I might have found the problem: my SQL queries can’t find the item type EBOOK, or any data associated with bib records of that type. Since there aren’t any items associated with these records, that makes sense, but…
Is there any way to run an SQL report looking for something in the biblioitems.isbn field when there aren’t any items attached? The 020 field has them, and I can put the ISBN in the search box, so the system knows they’re there.
Thanks! And if I’m totally confused, could someone point me in the right direction?
I’m about to leave for the day, and Monday is a holiday here in the States, so I might not be checking e-mail for a while. Have a great weekend everybody.

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.

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.
