[Koha] Koha Digest, Vol 118, Issue 21

We use SCIS web for our Z39.50. We subscribe yearly. I zap the ISBNs into a
plain text document upload to SCISweb and it's ready to load into Koha in
seconds as a MARC record. We do 100s of books at a time. Then all we have
to do is put in our local information. I'm located in Australia, not sure
if this service is available world wide.
