[Koha] Regarding Cataloging

[Beda Szukics]

Hi

How did you import your excel-data into Koha in the first time? I'm not
really familiar with the process but I thought you had to convert your
data into MARC and one of the tools to do that is MarcEdit.

I am using Koha 3.12.6 and there you go to Start->Tools->MARC export

There is also a tool called "Batch item modification". Maybe that one
could help you.

I strongly recommend to upgrade your Koha instance to 3.12. It's worth
and 3.8 is really outdated.
