Adding a new book to Koha (Resent as i did not send it to the Koha list).

To do Marc/z3950 search for my home library on linux,
i manually run z3950-daemon-launch.sh,
as I have not got my z3950 daemon running at boot.

If i have problems finding a marc records I end up doing these three steps.

1. search for the book in one of the existing marc table using
the MARC biblio management screen (cgi-bin/koha/acqui.simple/addbooks.pl)

2. If this search fails then I then go to cgi-bin/koha/acqui.simple/addbiblio.pl
by clicking on Add new or Create Empty biblio button and then do the
z3950 search.

3. If the little window say not found, I go back to step one and i
normally find that the good old National Library of Scotland has my book.

Give this a go and see if it helps, my problem may be different to
yours as i have muck around with Breeding.pm, because title searches
without ISBN were not being displayed.

Regards,
Simon
