great ! just to point that UNIMARC has a coded field for that. But we prefer from far a free field (that could be the 200$b, we use for itemtype atm), as many libraries want specific "bib type" like : "mémoire Lyon", ou "Thèse 1990"... So I suggest something like : don't change anything to 200$b/biblioitems.itemtype, except rename it 'biblioitems.bibliotype' and map it to an authorized value list named "bibliotype" thus, we would have 2 things : - bibliotype (for filters) - item type (for issuing rules) In fact, shouldn't we rename "itemtype" in items table something like "issuing type" ? We have a client (BU Marseille) that clearly will use it as "issuing type" : "30days", "7 days", "14 days" are the possible values. nothing related to material. -- 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
