Re: [Koha] ًQuestions about 952 Field
Hi, Jesse-- I catalog on OCLC's Connexion Client, and use the Text String tool to set up my most commonly used fields in the 952--it's really handy, and generates my most commonly used 952 with a keystroke. I've found that it's faster to create the item records on OCLC with 952 fields import it into Koha, even when I'm cataloging a title with many items. This is a typical 952 for us (we don't have separate branches, and use LC call numbers): ǂ2 lcc ǂa SFMARITIME ǂb SFMARITIME ǂc STACKS ǂy BOOK ǂo VM600 O8 1999 ǂh v.1 ǂp 188336 Hope this is helpful!

Re: [Koha] ًQuestions about 952 Field
Hi, Jesse-- For the subfields that I use in the 952 field, the order doesn't seem to matter. We're on Koha 3.18--I don't know if the subfield order matters for other versions of Koha, or if there's any other variables to consider, though. It's easy to experiment--put the fields in the order that you like, export to Koha, then go take a look--I've found that our item records look fine no matter what the order in the OCLC record's 952 field.

I assume I can add the subfields in the order listed numerically/alphabetically instead of the order you have them listed? I am glad I asked this question now. Whew! Again, thanks a lot. Very helpful indeed.
