1. How to migrate data from koha to excel format marc tagwise like 020a,
020c, 041a, 082a,082b, 100, 245a, 245b, 245c, 250, 260a,260b, 260c,
300a,440a, 500a, 650a, 700a,700b,700c,700d,700-4,942c etc.

2. If a book not available in www.amazon.com but available in Amazon
India(www.amazon.in) then how can I get cover image of that book. In koha
there is no option to select Amazon India services from Amazon Locale
because here only American, British, Japanese, French, German and Canadian
are available. In India various languages are there so various language
books are available in www.amazon.in site but we cannot obtain the book
cover in koha for local language books.

3. Another point is when we search a book in catalogue first shows the
normal view and in normal view sequence is Title(245a), Subtitle(245b),
Statement of Responsibility (245c) then By: Main Entry Personal name(100a),
Contributor(s): (700a), (700b), (700c), Relator code(700-4). In normal view
mode there is no punctuation mark i.e (: colon) between Title (245a) and
Subtitle (245b). Also Statement of Responsibility (245c) and By: Main Entry
Personal name(100), Contributor(s): (700a), (700b), (700c), Relator
code(700-4) both i.e 245c and 700abc are meaningless because same thing
appears two times. I think (245c) is not required to display in Normal view.
When we setup ISBD Template we put there punctuation mark and at the time of
data entry we do not add punctuation mark as a result in Normal view mode
Title , Subtitle, SOR are coming without punctuation mark and it is very
confusing to a new user. Maximum Library authority do the data entry job by
non Librarian worker and they do not know the punctuation mark so it is
better to setup with punctuation mark at the time of display page designing.
Also after (260a) :colon; (260b) ,comma ; (260c).dot and after pagination
(300a) p. may be inserted.  It is my earnest request to the concern persons
to look into the matter for betterment of koha services. 

Thanking you,
Chinmoy Ghosh.
