Hi Zachary, Your data appear to be missing important fields that Koha will need: home branch, holding branch and barcode. (These are stored at marc field 952 in Koha). I assume that your 'format' flag is equivalent to Koha's 'item type'? Did you convert your file to marc using a marc-creating tool such as MarcEdit ? http://people.oregonstate.edu/~reeset/marcedit/html/index.php Did you import the file to Koha using bulkmarcimport.pl from the command line? This will serve you better for your task than 'Stage Marc Records' in the web interface. Hope that helps, Bob Birchall Calyx

My question pertains to importing existing book records. I have a listing of all our records in a CSV file... which contains info such as title, author, etc. The file is attached for reference. In an attempt to import that data, I converted that CSV information to MARC records. the

converted

file is attached for reference also. But, when I try to import the MARC file, I get an error that the staging was not completed because there are MARC errors.

So, I suppose my question has a lot mini questions... did I go about importing the wrong way? Did I convert the CSV file incorrectly? Did I map the data to the wrong MARC fields? I followed the LOC's MARC guide when doing the conversion, but apparently I did something wrong.
