Hello, I have a batch of authority records that I would like to import into the database. Does one use the same procedure for authority records as bibliographic records? Does Koha know how to distinguish between bibs and authority records? __________________________ Cecil Hillyard Cataloger Washoe County Library Technical Services 4001 S.

Cecil, Koha doesn't have a graphical interface for importing Authorities yet. That said, Koha can import authorities, but you have to do it from the command line (something I hope will change one day soon). Someone else will have to give you the command necessary for importing authorities since I'm having trouble remembering where I put those instructions ... Thanks Nicole C.
