If you are not so familiar with MARC and cataloguing, I recommend the Understanding MARC booklets. Koha doesn't use MARC Holdings records (yet) but the booklet for the bibliographic format particularly is a great resource. There's one for authorities too. Links to the online booklets are on this page: https://www.loc.gov/marc/
And if you want to play about with the data outside Koha, search for the remarkable product MarcEdit.

Hayward Sent: 12 April 2022 14:25 To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] Introduction I wanted to follow up with a question. Now I have an agenda item of getting a working Koha installation, and after that I will need to (start to) catalogue a relatively small library. I have broad interests, but I don't really know LIS apart from an introduction to information architecture. Could you recommend to me some introductory titles about LIS and librarianship?
