[Koha] Importing individual records

[Seth Mayo]

Is that the cron job that executes:
misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl-b -a -z ?

The librarian also noticed today that she can borrow the books in question
even though she can't search for them.  Is this what you'd expect in that
case as well?

I'll run the SQL and check the record you mentioned tomorrow morning when I
get back in...

Thanks for your help everyone!
