Hi Howard,
Evergreen does support original cataloging and importing MARC files from

So I'm evaluating Evergreen 2.7.4 for my school library and am testing
adding books but so far importing them from Z39 appears to be the only way.

with libraries or library software.
Evergreen's bibliographic database is creating using the information held
in MARC records. For each item that is cataloged, there must be a
corresponding MARC. If you did not
