Duplicate Records Created When Importing Large Batch of Records into Koha
Hi, We thought we had successfully imported 2669 records into koha and had no problems bringing the records up when searching for them by title. Everything looked good, however while I was editing them I discovered half way through duplicates of each bib record. There is only one bib record but when I do a search on the title it brings up a duplicate record for each title. When we tried to un import to revert these staged records only the first 6 records reverted and the others remain imported. Does anyone know why this is happening and how we can fix this problem? Also how do we prevent duplicate copies in the future?

If there are truly no duplicate bibs, but only duplicates in the search try this: http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/searching/#5 Kind Regards, Chris
Frances, Where are the duplicates showing? Are you on the staff side or the OPAC. On the staff side you may bee a copy of the record and a copy of the record in the reservoir - which can be cleaned to remove duplicates.
