I'd like to export a small set of records from Koha, edit them, and then overlay over the old records. Does bulkmarcimport.pl allow me to do this? How does the "delete" flag work? What does it match on? Is it possible to do this with just a small set of records? Is there some other way to overlay some records after editing outside of Koha? I'm using 2.2.7 but in the next week hope to upgrade to the 2.2.8 bugfix release. On a similar subject, I'm often annoyed at having to wait for the MARC editor to load and then clicking on multiple tabs to edit all the fields I want. It's too slow for quickly upgrading records or doing batches, so I do my editing, including adding items, outside of Koha and then use bulkmarcimport. I'd much prefer editing a record in something like MARCMaker format, except for maybe the fixed fields, which could be presented similar to how OCLC displays them. Would it be possible to create a simpler MARC editor for Koha that is just a record in MARCMaker format in an text input field? I'm just learning Perl, but maybe some day I'll tackle this feature. --Jason
