Hello,

I'm new to Koha and need some help. We are a parish library and looking

for

a free library software.

Questions:

1. Is there a possibility to use only the book fields which I need and get rid of the other not needed fields in the MARC record?

Yes. It is possible.

2. I have already book-csv-lists with the fields "title" and "author" for ca. 3500 books. Would it be possible to import them somehow into the system and fill the necessary fields from 1. by hand afterwards? Or do I have to have filled a special field, like barcode (we do not have a barcode reader), before the import?

You would need a barcode for circulation. But yes, you can import the data by first converting it to MARC21 using say MarcEdit software.

It would be great if you could help me with my questions.

Hope this helps, -Indranil

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best regards
