Chris,
I am able it import the MARC data. One key item that it missing for each
book, etc. is the barcode information.
I am not sure how to map in Koha so that the import process sends the data
to the correct place.

And if for some reason the import goes badly you can rollback the changes.

Hi,
Your MARC file has the barcode field as Chris said, see:

I was able to import the above record in my Koha, see this:

I just changed the barcode (to make it unique for my installation),
permanent location, current location and koha item type to my
intallation's
requirements and it works.
That means that perhaps you need to double check your 952a, 952b, 952y
match with what you have set in your Basic Parameters settings of your
installation.

FYI: I am a total novice at Koha. I had an acquaintance set up a
Ubuntu
server with Koha on it. The server is running just fine and can only
be
accessed in-house. We are using it for a small library at a private
school.
It is replacing the outdated Athena. I created a superuser and have
logged
in and am starting to set things up...
I followed the directions on this wiki in order to export the MARC
records
from Athena in order to import it into Koha.
http://library.bridgton.lib.me.us/BPL_mediawiki/index.php/Exporting_Athena_Holdings_Data_and_Importing_it_into_Koha
I was able to accomplish all of the steps without any errors or
issues...
I then went into Manage staged MARC records from the Tools menu and
imported the MARC records into the catalog. I am able to search for
each
item by title or author, etc. The problem that I am having is that it
didn't
seem to transfer the Barcode information. All of our books are already
labeled so it is advantageous for us to keep the old Barcode system
since
there are roughly 9000 items.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
