Yet for example on Koha demo of Catalyst IT Ltd. (New Zealand) we can find this
record
<http://demo-intra.mykoha.co.nz/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/MARCdetail.pl?biblionumber=20895>
with biblionumber=999$c=999$d==20895 but control number 001==30908. Maybe
they take 30908 from OCLC, but that is not what we are looking for, we want
just an incremental system generated number like barcode.pl plugin builder
does for items, but for biblios, with no relation with Koha biblionumber.

In theory, it's configurable, but there are parts of Koha that expect the
> biblionumber to be in the 999$c field (e.g. MARC21slim2OPACResult.xsl).

I know 999 is used internally by Koha, so I don't wish to touch nothing
about biblionumber/999$c/999$d.

Cheers,
