編目

  • 到那: 其他 > 編目

Before you start cataloging in Koha, you need to do some basic setup. Refer to the Implementation checklist for a full list of these things. Most importantly, you need to make sure that your MARC bibliographic frameworks are all defined the way you want. Once in the cataloging module you will not be able to add or remove fields and subfields, so your frameworks must be ready before you start cataloging.

You can also use OCLC Connexion to send records directly in to Koha. For more information on that please review the OCLC Connexion Gateway setup appendix.

Bibliographic records

In Koha, the bibliographic record contains the main information related to the material. This includes things like the title, author, ISBN, etc. This information is stored in Koha in MARC.

備註

Koha supports MARC21 and UNIMARC.

Once this information is saved, item records can be attached to the bibliographic record.

Adding records

經由原始編目或複本編目可以新增紀錄入 Koha。也可使用基本或進階編目介面。

To catalog a record using a blank template in the basic editor:

  • Click 『New record』

    Buttons at the top of the cataloging module: Advanced editor, New record (with caret for framework options), and New from Z39.50/SRU (with caret for framework options)

    備註

    The 『New record』 button will open the default bibliographic framework. If you want to use a different framework, click the small arrow to the right of the 『New record』 button and choose the framework.

    A choice of bibliographic frameworks opens when the arrow next to the 'New record' button is clicked

    備註

    You can create or modify frameworks in the Administration module.

To catalog a record using a blank template in the advanced editor:

To catalog a record based on an existing record at another library in the basic or advanced editor:

Importing records

It is possible to import both bibliographic and authority MARC record files in Koha. The files to import can be either in MARC or MARCXML format.

Importing records into Koha includes two steps.

  1. The first is to stage records for import, which prepares the records, and imports them in the reservoir.

  2. The second step is to import the prepared, or 「staged」, files from the reservoir into the catalog.

Staging records for import

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Import > Stage records for import

  • First, find the MARC file on your computer

    The first section of the record staging tool, upload a file to stage

  • Next, you will be presented with options for record matching and item

    imports

    The various settings of the record staging tool

    • Pre-fill values with profile: if you already have staging profiles set up, you can choose the appropriate profile from the dropdown list

      • Profiles are used to pre-fill the rest of the staging settings form.

      • You can create a profile by choosing the various settings in the sections below and enter a profile name at the end of the form. Next time you stage records, the profile will be available.

    • Comments about this file: enter comments to identify your upload when going to the 『Manage staged records』 tool

    • Record type: choose which type of records are in this file, bibliographic or authority

      Record type dropdown list: Bibliographic or Authority

    • Character encoding: choose the character encoding of your file

      Dropdown list of available encoding schemes: UTF-8 is the default, MARC8, ISO 5426, ISO 6937, ISO 8859-1, or EUC-KR

    • Format: choose the MARC format of your file

      Dropdown list of available formats: MARC or MARCXML

    • Modify record using a MARC modification template: choose if you would like to use a MARC modification template to alter the data you’re about to import

      Dropdown list of available MARC modification templates

    • Choose whether or not you want to look for matching records

      The 'Look for existing records in catalog' section of the record staging form

    • Record matching rule: choose which rules to use to check your catalog if these records already exist.

      Dropdown list of available matching rules

      備註

      You can set up record matching rules in the administration area

      備註

      When using the ISBN matching rule Koha will find only exact matches. If you find that the ISBN match is not working to your satisfaction you can change the AggressiveMatchOnISBN preference to 『Do』 and then run your import again.

      • Action if matching record found: choose what to do with matching records if they are found

        • Replace existing record with incoming record: choose this if you are importing more complete records than the ones you currently have, or if you made some changes using an external tool (MarcEdit for example)

        • Add incoming record: this will keep the existing record and add the incoming record, so you may end up with duplicates

        • Ignore incoming record (its items may still be processed): choose this if you do not want to replace existing records

      • Action if no match is found: choose what to do with records that are unique

        • Add incoming record: choose this if you wish to import records that are not already in your catalog (new titles for example)

        • Ignore incoming record: choose this if you don’t want to import records that are not already in your catalogue (for example, if you’re only replacing existing records and don’t want to add anything)

    • Check for embedded item record data?: choose whether or not to import the item data (field 952) found in the MARC records (if the file you’re loading is a bibliographic file)

      Dropdown list of available options for importing items

      • Always add items: always add items regardless of matching status

      • Add items only if matching bib was found: this will only add items to existing records in your catalog

      • Add items only if no matching bib was found: this will only add items to the new records you’re importing, not the ones that already exist

      • Replace items if a matching bib was found: the match will look at the itemnumbers and barcodes to match on for items and will only replace existing items.

        備註

        Itemnumbers take precedence over barcodes

      • Ignore items: this will not add any items

    • Save profile: you can choose to save the chosen settings under a profile to use again later

      Save profile section of the record staging tool

  • Click 『Stage for import』

  • The record staging will be treated as a background job. A progress bar will let you know how the job is progressing.

    Message saying the record staging job has been enqueued, with a link to see the job

  • Click 『View detail of the enqueued job』 to see the summary of the staging

  • You will be presented with a confirmation of your MARC import

    Details of record staging background job

    • Number of records in file

    • Number of records with MARC errors

    • Number of records staged

    • Number of records matching existing records in the catalog

    • Number of items staged

  • To complete the process, continue to the Manage staged records tool by clicking on the 『View batch』 link.

  • From the list of staged files, click on the file name that you want to finish importing

  • Note that records that have already been imported will say so under 『Status』

    備註

    If you’re coming directly from the Stage records for import tool you will not see this list of staged files, you will be taken automatically to the right file summary

  • A summary of your staged file will appear along with the option to change your matching rules

    Options selected when staging the file

  • Below the summary is the option to import the batch of records using a specific framework

    Dropdown list of MARC bibliographic frameworks

    • Choosing a framework other than 『Default』 isn’t necessary, but it’s helpful for running reports.

  • Below the framework selection there will be a list of the records that will be imported

    List of staged records

    • Review your summary before completing your import to make sure that your matching rule worked and that the records appear as you expect them to

    • Matches will appear with info under the 『Match details』 column

      The matching record is linked under match details and a comparison of the two records is available under diff

      and when clicking the 『View』 link under 『Diff』 you can see the difference between versions.

      A comparison of matching records

      For each match, you can choose to ignore the match by selecting the 『Ignore matches』 radio button. If more than one matching record was found, they will all be listed and you can choose with which to match your incoming record.

      A staged record with two matches, each has it's radio button and it's diff view link

      If 『Ignore matches』 is selected, the action chosen in 『Action if no match is found』 from the staging step will be applied.

Adding analytic records

有時圖書館需要以分析編目技術,處理期刊裡的論文或專書裡的章節,供讀者使用。分析編目可編目期刊、報紙或期刊等書目記錄的部份內容,包括論文、章節、段落等。分析編目時,每個題名都有獨立的書目紀錄,但並未脫離主館藏的實體。詳情見中國編目規則第十四章分析與 AACR2 第 13 章。

If you would like to catalog analytic records there are two options. One is to use the Easy Analytics function; the other is the Analytics enhanced workflow.

Easy analytics

The easy analytics feature makes linking analytic records together easier. The first thing you need to do is set the EasyAnalyticalRecords preference to 『Show』 and the UseControlNumber preference to 『Don’t use.』

After cataloging your analytic record (see adding records for more on creating records) click 『Edit』 from the normal view and choose to 『Link to host item』

image646

提示鍵入館藏的條碼,以連結至紀錄。

image647

鍵入館藏條碼並按下 『選擇』 鈕後,出現確認訊息。

image648

此紀錄的773欄位鍵入完整的連結。

image649

To view all of the items tied to the host record, do a search for the record, click the 『Analytics』 tab on the left and the analytics tied to each barcode will be shown under the 『Used in』 column.

image650

說明

It is also possible to create analytic records from this screen by clicking on 『Create analytics』

You can also see the analytics attached to this record by clicking the 『Show analytic』 link towards the top of the record in the normal view.

image651

檢視分析記錄時,從 『分析』 分頁館藏表的 『主記錄』 欄裡,也可看到連結至主記錄的分析。

image652

Analytics enhanced workflow

To use the enhanced workflow method of adding analytics, the first thing you need to do is set the EasyAnalyticalRecords preference to 『Don’t show』 and the UseControlNumber preference to 『Use.』

After cataloging your original record (see adding records for more on creating records) click 『New』 from the normal view and choose to 『New child record.』

image653

This will open a new blank record for cataloging. The blank record will have the 773 field filled in properly to complete the link once the record is saved.

image654

The 『Show analytics』 link from the host record will now use the hosts record control number (001) to search for all records on the system of the type 『monographic component part』 or 『serial component part』 (Leader position 7) with a 773 subfield w that contains the hosts record control number.

Editing analytics

If you have linked an analytic record incorrectly you can remove that link by editing the analytic record (not the host record).

To do this, go to the analytic record and click the 『Edit』 button. For UseControlNumber simply edit or remove the corresponding 773.

If using EasyAnalytics choose to 『Edit items』; To the left of each item you will see two options.

image658

  • Clicking 『Edit in host』 will allow you to edit the item on the host record.

  • 勾選 『不連結』,將移除 773 欄位以及分析與主紀錄的連結。

Editing records

To edit a record you can click the 『Actions』 button and choose 『Edit biblio』 from the search results on the cataloging search page

image659

或在書目記錄裡按編輯鈕並選擇 『編輯記錄』

image660

將以 MARC 編輯器打開此紀錄

image661

The alternative is to search via Z39.50 to overlay your record with a fuller record found at another library. You can do this by choosing 『Replace record via Z39.50/SRU』 from the 『Edit』 menu.

image662

Once you choose that, you will be brought to a Z39.50 search window to search other libraries for the record in question.

編輯之後 (任何方式均可) 可按下編輯器左上方的 『儲存』 鈕。

Batch record modification

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Batch editing > Batch record modification

This tool is used to edit batches of bibliographic and authority records using MARC modification templates. Before visiting this tool you will need to set up at least one MARC modification template.

Batch record modification form for bibliographic records, the tab 'Upload a file' is selected by default

  • Record type: choose whether you’re editing bibliographic or authority records

  • Enter the biblionumbers or authids of records to be edited, in one of three ways

    • Upload a file of biblionumbers or authids

    • Use a list;

      Batch record modification form for bibliographic records, the tab 'Select a list of records' is selected and a dropdown menu 'Select a list' is visible

    • Or enter the numbers (one per line) in the box provided.

      Batch record modification form for bibliographic records, the tab 'Enter a list of record numbers' is selected and there is a text box

  • MARC modification template: finally choose the MARC modification template to use to edit these records.

Once you’ve entered your criteria click 『Continue』

Table of records to be edited

You will be presented with the list of records that will be edited. Next to each one is a checkbox so you can uncheck any records you would rather not edit at this time.

Clicking 『Preview MARC』 will allow you to see what edits will be made when you finalize the edit.

image1234

Once you’re sure everything is the way you want you can click the 『Modify selected records』 button and your records will be modified.

MARC modification templates

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Batch editing > MARC modification templates

The MARC modification templates system gives Koha users the power to make alterations to MARC records automatically while staging MARC records for import or making batch record modifications.

This tool is useful for altering MARC records from various vendors or sources. The system essentially allows one to create a basic script using actions to copy, move, add, update and delete fields.

List of currently available MARC modification templates

Click on 『New template』 (a template can be made up of one or more actions), enter a name and click 『Submit』.

Optionally, you can copy an existing template by choosing the template to copy in the 『Duplicate a template』 drop-down menu.

Form to create a new template

Next, you can add actions to the template. Click on 『New action』.

A 『Add a new action』 box will appear that you can use to specify what exactly you want to do.

For example if you’re loading in a batch of files from your EBook vendor you might want to add the biblio item type of EBOOK to 942$c.

Add a new action box where the following values are chosen: Update existing or add new field(s) 942 c with value EBOOK Description: Add the record-level itemtype

  • Choose 『Add new』

  • Enter the field 942 and subfield c

  • Enter the value of 『EBOOK』 (or whatever your ebook item type code is)

  • Provide a description so you can identify this action later

  • Click 『Add action』

備註

If you wish to update the values in an existing field choose the option 『Update existing or add new』. This will update existing values where found and add a new field if one doesn’t exist.

Each action can also have an optional condition to check the value or existence of another field. For example you might want to add the call number to the item record if it’s not already there.

備註

Editing item fields only works when using the template when staging records. Once records are in Koha, the item is 『separated』 from the record and can only be edited using the batch item modification tool

Add a new action form with the following options: Copy first field 090 a to field 952 o if field 952 o doesn't exist Description: Move call number to item record if there isn't one there already

  • Choose 『Copy』

  • Decide if you want to copy the first occurrence or all occurrence of the field

  • Enter the field 090 (or other bibliographic call number field) and subfield a to copy

  • Enter the 952 field and o subfield to copy to

  • Choose 『if』

  • Enter the 952 field and o subfield

  • Choose 「doesn’t exist」

  • Provide a description so you can identify this action later

  • Click 『Add action』

The move, copy, and copy and replace actions support regular expressions, which can be used to automatically modify field values during the copy or move. An example would be to strip out the 『$』 character in field 020$c.

Add a new action form with the following options: Copy and replace every field 020 c to field 020 c RegEx s/\$// if field 020 c matches m/^\$// RegEx Description: Remove $ (dollar sign) from 020$c fields

  • Choose 『Copy and replace』

  • Decide if you want to copy the first occurrence or all occurrences of the field

  • Enter the field 020 and subfield c to copy

  • Enter the 020 field and c subfield to copy to

  • Check the 『RegEx』 box and enter your regular expression (in this case s/\$// )

  • Choose 『if』

  • Enter the 020 field and c subfield

  • Choose 「matches」

  • Check the 『RegEx』 box and enter your regular expression (in this case m/^\$/ )

  • Provide a description so you can identify this action later

  • Click 『Add action』

備註

The value for an update can include variables that change each time the template is used. Currently, the system supports two variables, __BRANCHCODE__ which is replaced with the branchcode of the library currently using the template, and __CURRENTDATE__ which is replaced with the current date in ISO format ( YYYY-MM-DD ).

You could also use regular expressions to add your library’s proxy URL in front of links in your MARC record.

Add a new action form with the following options: Copy and replace all fields 856 u to field 856 u RegEx s/^/http://proxy=/ Description: Add proxy URL

  • Choose 『Copy and replace』

  • Decide if you want to copy the first occurrence or all occurrences of the field

  • Enter the field 856 and subfield u to copy

  • Enter the 856 field and u subfield to copy to

  • Check the 『RegEx』 box and enter your regular expression (in this case s/^/PROXY_URL/ )

  • Provide a description so you can identify this action later

  • Click 『Add action』

When choosing between 『Copy』 and 『Copy and replace』 keep the following example in mind:

245 _aThe art of computer programming _cDonald E. Knuth.
300 _aA_exists _bB_exists

If we apply action (a) Copy the whole field 245 to 300, we get:

245 _aThe art of computer programming _cDonald E. Knuth.
300 _aA_exists _bB_exists
300 _aThe art of computer programming _cDonald E. Knuth.

If we apply action (b) Copy the subfield 245$a to 300$a, we get:

245 _aThe art of computer programming _cDonald E. Knuth.
300 _aThe art of computer programming _bB_exists

Once your actions are saved you can view them at the top of the screen. Actions can be moved around using the arrows to the left of them.

List of all actions in a template

Actions will be done in the order they appear. Depending on your actions the order may be very important. For example you don’t want to delete a field before you copy it to another field. You can use the arrows to move actions up or down the list

  • The up arrow will move the action up one position

  • The up arrow with a line at the top will move the action to the first position

  • The down arrow with a line at the bottom will move the action to the last position

  • The down arrow will move the action down one position

Once your template is saved you will be able to pick it when using the Stage MARC records for import tool or when using the batch record modification tool.

Dropdown list of available MARC modification templates

Duplicating records

Sometimes a copy of the record you need to catalog can’t be found via Z39.50. In these cases you can create a duplicate of similar record and edit the necessary pieces to create a new record. To duplicate an existing record click 『Edit as new (duplicate)』 from the 『Edit』 menu on the bibliographic record.

Edit menu of a bibliographic record is open, the mouse cursor is on the 'Edit as new (duplicate)' option

This will open a new MARC record with the fields filled in with the values from the original bibliographic record.

Edit as needed and save.

備註

This will not change the original record.

說明

If the file is a PDF, it will be opened directly in the user’s browser whereas if the file is an image or another type of file, the user will be prompted to download it.

Adding cover images

Several free and paying services are integrated with Koha to provide cover images for your catalog, such as Amazon, Baker and Taylor, Google books, NovelList Select, Open Library, and Syndetics. Check the corresponding system preferences to enable the service of your choice.

There are other options such as a Coce image cache server, or having remote cover images with custom URLs.

警告

If you enable more than one service, you will have multiple cover images in your records.

Most of these services use the ISBN of the record to fetch the cover image from the provider.

Finally, you can upload your own images to your records with what is called Local cover images in Koha.

警告

Make sure you are respecting copyright when using images.

Adding a single local cover image

Before adding local cover images, make sure either the OPACLocalCoverImages system preference and/or the LocalCoverImages system preference is set to 『Show』.

To upload local cover images staff need the upload_local_cover_images permission.

  • In a bibliographic record, choose 『Upload image』 from the edit menu to add your cover image.

    The Edit menu in a bibliographic record is opened and the cursor is on the 'Upload image' option

  • Drag and drop the image to the area, or click on 『Drop files here or click to select a file』 a select the image file on your computer.

    Upload cover image tool page

    警告

    Koha does not have a maximum file size limit for this tool, but the web-server (such as Apache) may limit the maximum size of uploads (ask your system administrator).

  • If the AllowMultipleCovers system preference is set to 『Allow』, you will have the choice to replace existing covers or not. If the system preference is set to 「Don’t allow」, the image will replace existing cover images for this record.

    備註

    Where there are multiple images for a record they will display left to right (then top to bottom, depending on screen size) in the order they were uploaded. The image on the left (the first one uploaded) is used as a thumbnail cover in search results and on the details page. There is no way to reorder cover images uploaded in this way, so be sure to upload them in the order you’d like them to appear.

    Detailed record in the OPAC, the record has two local cover images displayed in the 'Image' tab. The thumbnail next to the title is the first cover image, with two dots under it to switch from one image to the other.

  • Click 『Process images』

Alternatively, you can access the cover image upload tool itself in Cataloging > Tools > Upload local cover image. You will then need to specify the biblionumber of the record for which you are uploading the image.

Options after choosing the image file in the upload local cover image tool: ZIP file or image file, bibliographic record number, and the choice to replace existing covers

備註

The biblionumber or bibliographic record number is not the same as the barcode, it is the system-generated number assigned by Koha to each bibliographic record. You can find the biblionumber in various place, namely:

Adding a batch of cover images

The tool to upload cover images also allows batches of images to be uploaded in a ZIP file.

To upload a batch of images:

  • Create a folder with the images to upload in it

  • Create a text file (*.txt) named either datalink.txt or idlink.txt listing the biblionumber followed by the image name for each image, one per line. For example:

    ::

    506,2gentlemen.jpeg 779,asyoulikeit.jpg 138,selected-poems-oscar-wilde.jpg 41,sonnets.jpg 499,3rdhenry6.jpg 787,macbeth.jpg 102,sonnets2.jpg

    File browser with image files and a text file called datalink.txt opened with the following text: 506,2gentlemen.jpeg 779,asyoulikeit.jpg 138,selected-poems-oscar-wilde.jpg 41,sonnets.jpg 499,3rdhenry6.jpg 787,macbeth.jpg 102,sonnets2.jpg

    警告

    Make sure there are no extra lines or characters in the text file.

  • Create a ZIP file that includes all the images to upload and the text file

  • In Koha’s staff interface, go to the upload cover image tool in Cataloging > Tools > Upload local cover image, and drag and drop or select the ZIP file from your computer

  • The file type 『ZIP file』 should be selected

  • If the AllowMultipleCovers system preference is set to 『Allow』, you will have the choice to replace existing covers or not. If the system preference is set to 「Don’t allow」, the image will replace existing cover images for this record.

  • Click 『Process images』

  • You are presented with a summary of the upload

    Upload local cover image tool page with Image upload results: 7 images found, followed by the title of each record each title being a link to the record itself

備註

The source image is used to generate a 140 x 200 px thumbnail image and a 600 x 800 px full-size image. The original sized image uploaded is not kept by Koha.

In the staff interface, the cover images appear in the search results, in the record details page on the right of the title, and in the 『Images』 tab in the holdings table at the bottom.

Rotating items through libraries automatically

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Automation > Stock rotation

備註

This tool will only be available if the StockRotation system preference is enabled.

備註

To access this automation tool, staff needs the following permissions:

  • manage_rotas: this grants the ability to create, update and delete rotas

  • manage_rota_items: this grants the ability to add, remove and progress items on a rota.

Stock rotation helps to spread resources more fairly among library branches and allows patrons to see a wider range of titles.

Items are popular whilst they are new at a particular branch. However, their use often tails off over time. This tool empowers librarians to automate the movement of items on to another branch before usage declines and thereby extends the items useful life.

Library staff create rotation plans (rotas) and then assign them to items. A cronjob is then used to cycle these items round the specified libraries on the rotation plan, moving them to the next stage after the prescribed period of time has passed at the current stage.

備註

This tool requires the stockrotation.pl cron job that must be configured to run on a daily basis.

Email notices may be used to provide the library branches with a list of items to be put in transit to the next branch and if an item is found to be on loan at the time that it should be transferred, an alert will be displayed when it is next returned.

備註

The notice used is SR_SLIP. It can be customized with the Notices and slips tool.

From the stock rotation tool page you can add new rotation plans (rotas) and see a summary of your currently configured rotation plans. You can then edit plan details, activate and deactivate plans and manage stages and items on a given rotation plan.

The rota table

備註

You can customize the columns of this table in the 『Table settings』 section of the Administration module (table id: stock_rotation).

Creating a new rota

To create a new rota (rotation plan), click the 『New rota』 button on the main stock rotation page.

    • Yes: items will continue to rotate, returning back to the first library on the rotation plan once they have completed their allotted time at the last library, indefinitely until manually removed from the rota

  • Description: optionally add an expanded description of the rota for display in summary views

Once the rota is complete with stages and items, you can activate the rota to begin cycling the items through the rotation.

From the stock rotation tool main page, click on 『Activate』 next to the rota.

Pinter profiles

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Tools > Label creator > Manage >

    Printer profiles

A profile is a set of 「adjustments」 applied to a given template just prior to printing which compensates for anomalies unique and peculiar to a given printer (to which the profile is assigned). This means if you set a template up and then print a sample set of data and find that the items are not all aligned the same on each label, you need to set up a profile for each printer to make up for the differences in printing styles, such as the shifting of text to the left, right, top or bottom.

If your labels are printing just the way you want, you will not need a profile.

Adding a printer profile

To add a new profile, click on the 『New』 button at the top of the label creator tool and choose 『Printer profile』.

'New' menu in the label creator page is opened and the mouse cursor is on the 'Printer profile' option

Using the form that appears you can create a profile to fix any problems with your template.

  • 『Printer name』: enter a name for the printer. It does not have to match your printer exactly, it is only used for reference within Koha, so you can use the printer model number or you can call it 『the printer on my desk』.

  • 『Paper bin』: enter a name for the printer’s paper tray. Like the printer name, it is only used as a reference.

  • 『Template name』 will be filled in once you have chosen which template to apply the profile to in the template edit form

  • 『Units』: define what measurement scale you’re using for your profile.

    Dropdown list of measurement units used in the patron card creator tool, PostScript Points, Agates, US Inches, SI Millimeters, and SI Centimeters

The next sections are used to adjust the label printing.

  • Offset describes what happens when the entire image is off center either vertically or horizontally

  • Creep describes a condition where the distance between the labels changes across the page or up and down the page

    備註

    For these values, negative numbers move the error up and to the left and positive numbers move the error down and to the right

    Example: the text is .25」 from the left edge of the first label, .28」 from the left edge of the second label and .31」 from the left edge of the third label. This means the horizontal creep should be set to .03」 to make up for this difference.

Click 『Save』 to save the new profile.

After saving, your profiles will appear under Manage > Printer profiles.

'Manage' menu in the label creator page is opened and the mouse cursor is on the 'Printer profiles' option

Barcode generator

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Tools > Barcode generator

Koha offers a barcode generator tool that can be used to create images of barcodes for various uses (in notices for example).

This tool can be used for a number of types of barcodes, as well as QR codes.

It will create an image from the given barcode in the chosen barcode format and also generate a unique HTML tag which can be used anywhere.

Form to generate a barcode image

To generate a new image, fill out the form.

  • Barcode type: choose the barcode type to be used

    備註

    Most barcode types allow only numerical characters.

    The following allow alphanumeric characters:

    • Code39

    • NW7

    • QRcode

    Some barcode types (EAN13, EAN8, UPCA, and UPCE) expect specific patterns (which can be found here https://barcode.tec-it.com/en/ under EAN/UPC).

  • Hide text: check this box if you only want the actual barcode on the image. If unchecked, the number will be printed in human readable characters under the barcode.

  • Barcode height: enter the height in pixels the barcode image should have

  • Barcode: enter the barcode to be printed

Click 『Show barcode』.

Barcode generator tool, on the right there is a barcode image and an HTML img tag

On the right of the screen is the barcode image, which can be downloaded or printed.

Under the image, there is an HTML 『img』 tag. You can copy the tag and paste it anywhere you need the barcode to appear (however, note that it is only available in the staff interface).

For a QR Code, the options are slightly different. Instead of 『Barcode height』, there is a 『QR Code module size』 field that can be adjusted by slider. The number refers to the size in pixels of each black or white square in the code (modules). The larger the modules, the larger the image will be.

A QR Code can take not only alphanumeric characters, but any type of textual information, such as a URL or even a short text.

Quick spine label creator

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Tools > Quick spine label creator

備註

This tool does not use the label layouts or templates, it simply prints a spine label in the first spot on the label sheet, or on a single label from a label printer.

  • Define the fields you want to print on the spine label in the SpineLabelFormat system preference.

  • Format your label printing by either editing the spinelabel.css file found in koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/css/ or adding the CSS directly in the IntranetUserCSS system preference.

    For example, adding the following CSS code in IntranetUserCSS will alter the label’s font.

    /* Modify the Quick Spine Label Creator Font etc */
    .tools.labels #spinelabel {
               font-size:11.5pt;
               font-family:courier new;
               font-weight:bold;

Exporting data

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Export > Export catalog data

Koha comes with a tool that will allow you to export your bibliographic, items and authority records in bulk. This can be used to send your records to fellow libraries, organizations or services; or simply for backup purposes.

Exporting bibliographic records

At the top of the screen you need to pick what data you’re exporting. If you’re exporting bibliographic records with or without the item information, click the 『Export bibliographic records』 tab.

  • Fill in the form in order to limit which records are exported (all fields are optional)

    Form to export bibliographic records

    • From biblionumber / To biblionumber: limit the exportation to a range of biblionumbers

    • Item type: limit to a specific item type, or several item types

      警告

      This limit will use the item type defined in the item-level_itypes system preference.

      If the item-level_itypes system preference is set to 『specific item』 and there are no items attached to a bibliographic record, that record will not be exported.

      To export all bibliographic records of a specific type, the item-level_itypes system preference needs to be set to 『bibliographic record』.

    • With items owned by the following libraries: limit to a specific library or group of libraries

      警告

      This is a filter; if this is set to the default value (all libraries selected), or select one or more libraries, bibliographic records with no items attached will not be exported.

      To get bibliographic records with no items, 『clear all』 selected libraries (i.e. de-select all libraries).

    • Call number range: limit to a call number range

    • Accession date (inclusive): limit to an acquisition date range

    • Use a file: you can load a file of biblionumbers of the records to be exported. The file type needs to be .csv or .txt

    • Don’t export items: by default, items will be exported. Check this box to only export bibliographic records

    • Remove items not owned by selected libraries: check this box to limit the exported items to items from the library you’re logged in as (if the 『With items owned by the following libraries』 field above is set to 『All』) or to the library or libraries selected above

    • Don’t export fields: enter which fields that should not be exported, separated by spaces. This can be handy if you’re sharing your data, you can remove all local fields before sending your data to another library

    • File format: choose the file type, MARC or MARCXML

    • File name: if needed, enter a new file name for the export file

    • Click 『Export bibliographic records』

Exporting authority records

At the top of the screen you need to pick what data you’re exporting. If you’re exporting authority records, click the 『Export authority records』 tab.

  • Fill in the form in order to limit which records are exported (all fields are optional)

    Form to export authority records

    • From authid / To authid: limit the exportation to a range of authids

    • Authority type: limit the exportation to records of a specific authority type

    • Use a file: you can load a file of authids of the records to be exported. The file type needs to be .csv or .txt

    • Next choose fields that you would like to exclude from the export separated by a space (no commas)

    • Don’t export fields: enter which fields that should not be exported, separated by spaces.

      • To exclude all subfields of the 200 field, for example, just enter 200

      • To exclude a specific subfield, enter it beside the field value. For example, 100a will exclude just the subfield 『a』 of the 100 field

    • File format: choose the file type, MARC or MARCXML

    • File name: if needed, enter a new file name for the export file

    • Click 『Export authority records』

Inventory

  • Get there: More > Cataloging > Reports > Inventory

Koha’s inventory tool can be used in one of three ways:

  1. By creating a shelf list that you can then mark items off on;

  2. By uploading barcodes gathered by a portable scanner;

  3. By comparing barcodes gathered by a portable scanner or scanned directly to a generated shelf list.

Creating a shelf list

If you do not have the ability to use your barcode scanner on the floor of the library, the option available to you is to generate a shelf list based on criteria you enter. You can then print it to use while walking around the library checking your collection or use it directly in Koha on a portable device.

The inventory form, the sections Item location filters, Optional filters for inventory lists or comparing barcodes, and Additional options

First, choose the criteria for the items you want to print out on a list. All parameters are optional, but if none are selected, the resulting list might be quite large.

  • Library: choose the branch you want to check, as well as if that branch is the home library or the current holding library of the items.

  • Shelving location (items.location) is: you can filter by location.

  • Item callnumber between … and …: you can also limit the list to a specific range of callnumbers.

  • Call number classification scheme: if filtering by call number, make sure to choose the correct classification scheme

You can filter even more with item statuses (not for loan status, lost status, withdrawn status or damaged status). Check the boxes next to the statuses you want to include. For example, if you are using the list to shelf read, check only the 『for loan』 status as the other items probably won’t be on the shelves.

  • Last inventory date: enter a date here to skip items that have been marked as seen recently.

  • Skip items on loan: check this box to filter out loaned items from the list.

  • Skip items on hold awaiting pickup: check this box to filter out items that are awaiting pickup by patrons

  • Item types: check the boxes next to the item types you want to include in your shelf list

  • Export to CSV file: check this box to generate a CSV file for altering in an application on your desktop. If this box is unchecked, the list will be presented on the screen.

Click on 『Submit』 to generate your shelf list.

A table presenting the items corresponding to the filters

Once you have found the items on your shelves, return to this list and check the boxes next to the items you found. Next, click on one of the three buttons to continue:

Buttons in the inventory tool Mark seen and quit, Mark seen and continue, Continue without marking

  • Mark seen and quit: updates the 『last seen』 date and time of the selected items to now and returns to the previous screen.

  • Mark seen and continue: updates the 『last seen』 date and time of the selected items to now and shows the next page of the list.

  • Continue without marking: doesn’t update any of the items on this page and shows the next page of the list.

Uploading barcodes with a scanner

If you have a portable scanner (or a laptop and USB scanner) you can walk through the library with the scanner in hand and scan barcodes as you come across them (on a laptop, scan the barcodes into a text file or directly into the on screen text box). Once finished you can then upload the text file generated by the scanner to Koha.

The inventory form, the sections Use a barcode file, Or scan items one by one, and Parameters

  • Set inventory date to: choose the date you want to mark all items as last seen.

  • Compare barcodes list to results: uncheck for this method.

  • Do not check in item scanned during inventory: unless this is checked, Koha will check in items scanned, as it is assumed that they are on the shelf and so not loaned out. If you do not want to check in scanned items, check this option.

  • Check barcodes list for items shelved out of order: if this option is checked, Koha will compare the call numbers and make sure they are in the correct order.

Click 『Submit』. This will update all the items』 『last seen』 date to the chosen date (time last seen will be 00:00).

Once you have the updated the last seen date for all items scanned during the inventory it is possible to use reports to identify items that were not scanned and can therefore be assumed missing (you can use the batch item modification tool to change the LOST status of these items). There are sample reports you can use on the Koha SQL Reports Library.

Comparing scanned barcodes to a shelf list

Alternatively, you can combine the two methods to automatically compare a list of scanned barcodes with a generated list.

First, upload you barcode file or scan the barcodes in the box.

  • Set inventory date to: choose the date you want to appear in the items』 『last seen』 field (the time last seen will be set to 00:00).

  • Compare barcodes list to results: should automatically be checked.

  • Do not check in items scanned during inventory: make sure to check this option if you do not want the scanned items to be automatically checked-in if they are checked-out.

Choose the filters (library, shelving location, callnumbers, statuses or item types) to generate a list with which to compare your barcodes. Click on 『Submit』.

備註

Depending on the number of barcodes you are comparing, this may take a few minutes. It is not recommended to compare lists of more than 1000 barcodes as this may cause a session timeout.

Once Koha has finished comparing the barcodes file to the generated list, it will return the number of items updated and a list of problematic items.

備註

Unlike when creating a shelf list, the list that will be presented here will only contain the items that Koha has determined are problematic.

  • Missing (not scanned): the item is in the generated list but not in the barcodes file.

  • Found in wrong place: the item is in the barcodes list, but not in the generated list.

  • Still checked out: the item is checked out, but is in the generated list. It was not automatically checked in.

  • No barcode: the barcode doesn’t exist.

  • Unknown not-for-loan status: the item has 『not for loan』 status that is not in the NOT_LOAN authorized values list

  • Item may be shelved out of order: the callnumber is out of order

Koha-specific fields

Koha uses three fields to store information specific to it.

At the record level, 942 (MARC21) or 942 and 099 (UNIMARC) is used to store information such as record-level item type, record-level call number and classification scheme.

The item (holding) information is stored in 952 (MARC21) or 995 (UNIMARC).

System control numbers for Koha are stored in 999 (MARC21) or 001 and 090 (UNIMARC).

Added entry elements (942 / 099)

942$0 / 099$x - Koha issues (borrowed), all copies

MARC21: 942$0

UNIMARC: 099$x

This field contains the total number of issues/checkouts of all items of this record. It is populated using the update_totalissues.pl cronjob.

Mapped to: biblioitems.totalissues

Indexed in: totalissues

警告

This field should not be editable nor edited manually.

942$2 - Source of classification or shelving scheme

MARC21: 942$2

UNIMARC: 942$2

This field contains the source of classification used by the record’s call number (942$h and 942$i (MARC21)).

There is a choice of classification sources as they are defined in administration. If no classification scheme is entered, the system will use the value entered in the DefaultClassificationSource preference.

The source of classification will be used, along with the call number itself (942$h and 942$i (MARC21)) to create the normalized call number used when sorting by call number.

Mapped to: biblioitems.cn_source

Indexed in: cn-bib-source

942$6 - Koha normalized classification for sorting

MARC21: 942$6

UNIMARC: 942$6

警告

This field should not be editable nor edited manually.

942$c - Koha item type

MARC21: 942$c

  • The value from 942$c is copied to 952$y (MARC21) or 995$r (UNIMARC) as the default value when adding a new item to that record

  • The record-level item type can be used for the circulation rules if the item-level_itypes system preference allows it (this system preference lets you choose between using the record-level or item-level item type for the circulation rules, among other things)

  • The record-level item type is indexed and used in the search (see also the AdvancedSearchTypes system preference) as well as the facets (this is useful to find records that don’t have items, like records for online resources, ebooks, pdf files, etc.)

  • The record-level item type is used for record-level/」next available」 holds

  • The record-level item type is used for record-level article requests
