Another thing you may find helpful when cataloging is to click on "New from
Z39.50 Server". Koha gives the ability to search other libraries that support
this protocol. You have to set up the libraries to be searched by going into
"administration", then clicking "Z39.50/SRU servers. Each library has their
own settings. As an example, The Library of Congress uses hostname lx2.loc.gov
, port 210, database LCDB, with USMARC as the syntax. Yale Univeristy is
z3950.library.yale.edu port 7090, database voyager, USMARC, the Bodleian
(Oxford) is library.ox.ac.uk port 210 database aleph, usmarc. Finally, the
British Library uses z3950cat..bl.uk, port 9909 and database ZBLACU. You'll
have to request that the British Library give you a userid and password (took
about a week or so in my case.
The advantage to this method is that if the title you're cataloging is in their
collection, you can import it directly and not have to type everything into
your system manually. I was able to find "The Bible and the Holy Fathers for
Orthodox" in the Yale University collection. Here's what they returned in MARC
format:

before Easter, and includes the Preparation for Lent, Graet Lent and Holy Week.
This work is particularly addressed to those who set aside an hour daily for
prayer and meditation. Appendices are added for Sunday matins, major fixed
feasts such as Nativity, Theophany and other Feast days of Martyrsm saints. But
since this volume is not arranged according to the fixed calendar which lists
all the saints and fixed feasts for each day of the month, a suitable companion
would be a Menaion, which provides a fuller treatment of the major feast days,
and the flow of church seasons.

Subject: [Koha] Very, very beginner question: Sample MARC record
I am trying to make a trial run at cataloging, and it's turned up information
that I don't know how to populate.
The book I picked up is "The Bible and Holy Fathers for Orthodox", ISBNdb entry
at https://isbndb.com/book/9780962253607. Most of the entries in the catalogue
will be books, with some periodicals and maybe coverage of relevant websites.
I clicked on the "Books..." entry under "New entry"; that gives me a form with
the following fields as required:
000 ? - LEADER
005 ? - DATE AND TIME OF LATEST TRANSACTION
008 ? - FIXED-LENGTH DATA ELEMENTS--GENERAL INFORMATION
040 ? - CATALOGING SOURCE > Transcribing agency
What should I be doing to fill at least these out? Does "Z39.50/SRU search" or
"Link authorities automatically" provide a way to populate from existing
question?
Thank you for any orientation and advice.
Thanks,
Br. C.S. Hayward, author and apologist, and more importantly novice at St.
Demetrios Orthodox Monastery _______________________________________________
