[Koha-devel] Follett to Koha 3 Migration

[Heather Braum]

Ed,
The NEKLS consortium is on Koha 3 and we just added two Follett libraries to
our Koha install this past weekend (http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/). I
have documented the process of getting the data files that we sent into the
data migration specialists at LibLime and would be happy to share the steps
with you or anyone else interested. The process on my end did involve
purchasing the proprietary Follett ODBC driver from Follett, as well as
using Microsoft Access to create a database file using the ODBC driver to
access the Follett database files.

I do not know what tools the LibLime migration experts used to actually
import data into the Koha database. Maybe someone else on this list can help
you with the import steps. Please let me know if you'd be interested in the
steps I've documented for getting the actual Follett data.
