[Koha] MARC Data Import Followup

[Becky Bell]

Hi Zachary,

 

I ran your file of records through a program called MarcEdit. It created a
huge file that identifies the errors. I copied the summary of the errors:

 

Errors: 

            020-ind2:  Invalid data ($)  Indicator should be undefined.

            020-  No subfields have been defined in this record and it
appears that there should be.

            100-ind1:  Invalid data (\)  Indicator can only be 013.

            100-ind2:  Invalid data ($)  Indicator should be undefined.

            100-  No subfields have been defined in this record and it
appears that there should be.

            245-ind1:  Invalid data (\)  Indicator can only be 01.

            245-ind2:  Invalid data ($)  Indicator can only be 0-9.

            245-  No subfields have been defined in this record and it
appears that there should be.

            260-ind2:  Invalid data ($)  Indicator should be undefined.

            300-ind2:  Invalid data ($)  Indicator should be undefined.

            300-  No subfields have been defined in this record and it
appears that there should be.

 

I suggest you download MarcEdit from
http://people.oregonstate.edu/~reeset/marcedit/html/downloads.html and use
this tool to identify the errors in your records. 

 

Becky

Good evening all,

 

Thanks to those who responded to my original question about inputting
roughly 3,000 MARC records into Koha w/ the Staged Import Tool.  I've
followed the suggestions given to me, and produced a (what I thought to be)
correct .mrk file.  However, Koha sees only one record and that one has an
error in it.  Can someone spot the error, because my file checks out against
the example I was given.

 

Thanks,

Zach Tucker
