[Koha] to catalog or not to catalog, that is my question

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Eric,

there are a lot of libraries with this many and more records using Koha.
It's usually easier and faster to use the command line script
bulkmarcimport.pl for loading records during migration. The script can
load bibliographic and authority records.

For authorities this might have some helpful information:

Hope this helps,

Katrin
