Migrating catalog data
In this section, we demonstrate how to implement our migration plan. We edit the
source file using MARCEdit, setup administrative fields in Koha, and then use either
the bulkmarcimport . pl or the GUI import tool to complete the migration.
Setting up values in Koha's administrative
fields
First, we need to make sure that we prepare the Koha database for importing the
new records by setting values in administrative fields, such as library, item type,
or collection code.
Setting up branch codes
The branch code(s) can be setup from Libraries and Groups page under Koha
Administration.
