[Koha] Newbie question - possible to include dummy 'records' as templates?

[Bigwood, David]

Stephen,

There are 2 official lists, one for the UK and another for the US, Australia and Canada. They are found at 1.1C1 in AACR.

The US list is on-line at http://www.roundrockisd.org/mediacenter/handbook/Cataloging-GMD_list.doc but that is not official. Note that the terms "large print" "tactile" or "braille" can be added to the end of most terms in the list. [cartographic material (large print)] for example. The term "text" is rarely used, most records are considered text unless another GMD is present.

Sincerely,
David Bigwood

I don't find a handy list of authorized GMD's (is there one?), but the
MARC21 discussion on tag 008
(http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/ecbd008s.html) mentions seven
categories of materials: Books, Computer files, Maps, Music, Continuing
resources, Visual materials and Mixed materials.
