Yes, we created two for our libraries. One is for use on a non-zebra Koha, and the other is for use with zebra. They're a part of koha-tools, a collection of scripts we created for our migration. http://koha-tools.sourceforge.net/get.php The non-zebra one is in winnebago-to-koha/trunk/removeDuplicates. It looks for records with the same ISBN and merges them automatically. The zebra version is in winnebago-to-koha/trunk/zebraCompress. It has a web interface that searches for matching ISBNs and presents them so can use to choose which records to merge. We found that just matching by ISBN was too broad, because some of our materials are the same but they have different item types. The removeDuplicates script doesn't catch that. If you use either of these scripts, be sure to back up your database beforehand.

Hi Folks, Does anyone have a script for combining duplicated biblios, based on the ISBN or any other criteria? I have migrated from L4U to Koha and I ended up having 1 biblio for every item, but a lot of these items are the same. They should belong to only 1 biblio. Is there anyone who had a similar problem?
Your help is much appreciated. Thanks,
