All, I have submitted Bug 6113 to bugzilla for a sponsored enhancement. In communicating with other Koha users, we feel that it would be highly beneficial Koha was enhanced to allow the library to keep its current ids when loading both bibliographic and authority records. Some of us have used our current control numbers in the 76X-78X fields to link records. In our institution, we have also used that number in external databases and on other websites to link additional information back to the related catalog record. The documentation within bulkmarcimport.pl also needs to be amended to better explain the use of the various options (for example: x, y, k, idmap and keepid) since some of us tried to use those to keep our ids without success. Thank you. -- Linda Culberson lculber@mdah.state.ms.us Archives and Records Services Division Ms. Dept. of Archives & History P. O.
