I understand, just trying to prevent you from doing something that might break stuff (because people have gone there before). I can't tell you why for Koha 999c was chosen in the beginning, but it's one of the things that will need quite a bit of thinking if we wanted to change it now.
I think here are patches around to make a plugin to set 001 individually. I am using a variation of the stocknumberAV plugin in one of our libraries to create numbers, but you have to trigger it and it doesn't move the number to 035 as they only do original cataloguing. A catalouging plugin might be a route to explore.
Katrin -- Thank you so much for responding. I'm a cataloger among non-catalogers and I am just trying to make things as easy as possible for my co-workers while following standard guidelines for minimum level cataloging. Unless I have a plug-in for the 001 and permit it to be filled in with a click of the mouse, I will not be able to convince anyone to spend the time on it. Some of our libraries are completely one-"man" operations. Koha deviates in several significant ways from the ILS that I am accustom to, including not having a good way to run reports requesting specific MARC fields. Am I correct that I can run a report and find out how many records have a specific MARC field, but the only way to find out the content of the field in a report is to have the MARC field mapped to an authorized value? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
