[Koha] Advice on barcode replacement/central catalog

[Katelyn Browne]

I think you could use the same prepending process shown here with call
number prefixes:

Biblionumber is internal; you don't have to provide it.

At a gut-feeling level, I would strongly support changing barcodes before
you import.
