[Koha] Cataloguing Electronic resources

[Dianna Roberts]

Hi Ann,

We've not catalogued any websites but for documents we are using a
collection code ED (electronic documents). Our approach is currently a bit
inconsistent when it comes to items as sometimes we've attached them and
sometimes we haven't, although we do also an item-type ED (E-version). When
we have attached an item we've made up the barcode which can be any
combination of letters and/or numbers, e.g. QLDmain0709.

I'll be interested in seeing any other responses to this question, and would
also  like to know what people do about link checking. I must admit I hadn't
thought stocktaking as it's not something we've ever been required to do.

We are also currently on 3.2.

Regards,
Dianna Roberts

Kia ora koutou

I'm wondering how people are cataloguing websites and other electronic
resources so that they are able to be searched by collection codes. I have
trolled the net looking for discussions but have not found anything
pertinent yet. The nub of the problem is that if they don't have attached
items you cannot enter item types and ccodes, however I don't want to assign
barcodes. Are there hidden snags if you have items without barcodes? What
happens at stocktake when you have no actual item to stocktake? Is there a
better way to do this? I have used item types to assign borrower privileges
and ccodes as search points and I am just about to move from 3.2 to 3.4.

Naku noa
