Say them something like : "so, we will build a marc21 record, with a nice leader, some authorities links, the requested coded fields. Don't forget we will also have to build iso2709 records, embeeding items in 952 or 942 field. Subfields a to z will have to be filled". They will look at you and think "hey, it's a martian..." You : "you don't understand what I mean ? i'm not surprised. The good news is that LL would know... It totally counter productive to learn all that stuff for just 1 migration" In fact, it's true : it IS counter productive to learn how to play[1] with MARC if it's just one shot ! [1] play is not the best term here... as it's more a nightmare than a game when you start ;-) -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc NOUVEAU TELEPHONE : 04 91 81 35 08 _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
