Off hand, I would say that you would run into errors if and when you deleted the bib record a second time... Koha will want to copy the data from biblio to deleted_biblio then remove the bib record, but it will get a referential integrity check if it tries. My guess is that you would have to remove the record via the database. On Oct 29, 2015 3:41 PM, "Steve Sowder" <sow...@andrews.edu> wrote:
