The biblionumber can be used to match on if reloading records. I have
exported MARC records, made some mass changes, and then reloaded the
changed records by matching on the biblionumber. (Match points 10, if
points > 5 then go.) Worked well.
I have even loaded new records by assigning a biblionumber that I know
had been deleted in Koha.
They loaded fine and assumed the biblionumber that I assigned.

Hi Tim
You could edit either the .tt file or make a custom XSLT file to do that.
But please do not make the mistake that was made with MARC and give a machine
used value any human significance. The biblionumber is the primary key on a
database row to allow Koha to identify a biblio.
It should not be given any human significance, accession numbers, control
numbers etc play that role for humans.
Hope this helps

Is there an easy way to get the biblionumber of a record to display
somewhere on the "normal" view for a record in the staff interface? Or
would it require an actual programming change?
As it is, it displays in the URL in the browser navigation window, but
I would like to be able to print out a record with it showing on the
printout.
Thanks,
Tim
