need help with OPAC/cataloging
good morning all, I am using KOHA 3.2.7. I am downloading from z39, filling in Items, saving it. yet when I go to the OPAC to make sure it is there I am not getting any Holdings to come up-everything else is there. students have to go to ISBD or MARC tabs to find call #. what am I not doing? thanks in advance. Margaret
Dear Margaret, Are you clicking on save and edit items or just save and view record (I think that's the default). Once you create the record you have to add the item to it will than have several subfields to fill for the item, one of which (for us its subfield o), full call number, once you click add item, it should appear on OPAC. Respectfully, James Ghiorzi Library Assistant II San Benito County Free Library 470 Fifth St. Hollister, CA 95023 (831) 636-4107 ________________________________ From: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz [koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of Margaret Matthews [mamatthews@hughes.net] Sent: Sunday, May 01, 2011 9:58 AM To: Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: [Koha] need help with OPAC/cataloging good morning all, I am using KOHA 3.2.7.

If you are not getting any holdings, is it because you have no item record? If you put the call number in the 942 $h it will display even if there is no item record. (MARC 21)

Oops I misspoke, 942$h will display the call number in the staff interface even when there is no item. Elaine On Thu, May 5, 2011 at 11:29 AM, Elaine Bradtke <eb@efdss.org> wrote:
