Chapter 9

Some 952 subfields are very important from a Koha perspective. These include:

952$a - Permanent location: This is the home library or branch of the

particular item. It is important for circulation purposes that this subfield

should have a valid library code.

952$b - Current location: Usually the same as home library or branch;

this too must have a valid library code.

952$y -Koha item type: Item types are used for setting up circulation rules.

This field must have a valid item -type code.

952$p - Piece designation: This is the item barcode. Circulation would not

be possible without data in this subfield.

Holdings in legacy systems

It is likely that you will see these differences between Koha's holdings field and the

holdings field on records exported from the legacy system:

The holdings tag is likely to be 852, rather than tag 952.

Holdings subfields will differ from what Koha uses. The subfields may

fully or partially comply with the Library of Congress MARC 21 holdings

standards available here:

http: / /www. loc.gov /marc /holdings /hd852 .

html.

Some of the important Koha subfields may not be available - Permanent

location and Current location, or Koha item type.

Koha stores the item call number in a single subfield 952$o, but in the legacy

MARC record, you will likely find the call number broken into multiple

subfields - $h: Classification part, $i: Item part, and $k: Call number prefix.

Import tools

To import the data into Koha, we first convert the source MARC File into a

Koha -compatible file using MARCEdit -a free MARC editor.

We then import the converted file using one of Koha's imports tools:

bulkmarckimport . pl:

A Linux command -line tool usually used to import

large MARC files

GUI import tool: A more flexible import tool available in Koha's staff client

Here is more information about these tools:
