MarcEdit QuickTip – Getting your 952 (items / holdings data) field in place for import into Koha
by Indranil Das Gupta 03 Aug '16

03 Aug '16

Dear all, While moving bibliographic records from Excel / CSV format to Koha, using MarcEdit to convert the data to MARC21, often it is not clear how to make holding information about books with multiple copies merge into a single biblio with repeated 952 fields for the same book. This blogpost from L2C2 Technologies uses a live example to demonstrate the technique in MarcEdit. There is only one stipulation for this technique your records should have an ISBN number. (It can also be done in the absence of an ISBN, but that is through a much more non-trivial process) http://blog.l2c2.co.in/index.php/2016/08/03/marcedit-quicktip-3-getting-you… With regards -idg -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://blog.l2c2.co.in IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.
