That's an interesting point! We've certainly encountered that obstacle with EBSCO. However, how are deletions handled with your export script? It looks to me like you're just exporting the full set of bib records on each export, which would be functionally equivalent to them re-harvesting the whole collection using OAI-PMH. That said, it would be much less intensive to generate 1 export to FTP than requiring EBSCO to do X number of HTTP requests to get the same result. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
