In order to load these into Koha, you will first need to convert them
to MARC format by saving your spreadsheet as a CSV text file and using
MarcEdit [1] to do the conversion.  You can find a tutorial on using
MarcEdit to convert records for Koha at
http://koha.org/documentation/tutorial/using-marcedit and a guide
specifically for converting spreadsheet data at
http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=openoffice_excel_delimited_text_to_koha_using_marcedit.
