--- Comment #3 from David Nind <[email protected]> ---
Feel free to suggest alternative column names, or correct comes that I have
gotten wrong.

Notes on column description changes
===================================

Naming approach: 
- Generally, use the subfield name used in the MARC framework or Koha to MARC
mapping.
- Otherwise use a name that:
  . makes sense, or
  . is consistent with other names, or
  . makes it clearer what the column contains.

Columns with no descriptions - items
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

. items.itemnumber => Koha item number (autogenerated) (952$9) [1]
. items.biblionumber => Biblio number (internal) (consistency with other
tables)
. items.bookable => Bookable
. items.localuse => Total local uses (Bug 16122 - Item record needs to keep
local use count)

Columns with no descriptions - biblioitems
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- biblioitems.ean => EAN
- biblioitems.collectiontitle => Series statement (490$a) [2]
- biblioitems.collectionissn => Series ISSN (490$x) [3]
- biblioitems.collectionvolume => Series volume (490$v) [4]
- biblioitems.editionstatement => Edition statement (250$a)
- biblioitems.editionresponsibility => Edition responsibility (250$b) [5]
- biblioitems.cn_source => Source of classification or shelving scheme (942$2)
[1][6]
- biblioitems.cn_class => Classification part (942$h) [1]
- biblioitems.cn_item => Item part (942$i) [1]
- biblioitems.cn_suffix => Call number suffix (942$m) [1]
- biblioitems.cn_sort => Koha normalized classification for sorting (942$6)
[1][7]
- biblioitems.totalissues => Koha issues (borrowed), all copies (952$0) [1][8]

Column descriptions changed
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These column descriptions were changed for consistency or clarification:
- biblioitems.timestamp => Modification date (same title used for
biblio.timestamp)
- biblioitems.illus => Other physical details (maps to 300$b, have used same
title used for that subfield and MARC21 definition)
- biblioitems.biblioitemnumber, items.biblioitemnumber => Biblio item number
(internal) (consistency) 
- acqorders.biblionumber, biblio.biblionumber, bibliotems.biblionumber =>
Biblio number (internal) (consistency with other tables)
- items.cn_source => Source of classification or shelving scheme (consistency
with biblioitems.cn_source)
- items.itype => Koha item type (consistency with statistics and suggestions)
- items.timestamp => Modification date (same title used for biblio.timestamp
and biblioitems.timestamp)
- suggestions.itemtype => Koha item type (consistency with items and
statistics)

Order of columns in source file
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Most tables are sorted by the column name in the source file. I updated items
and statistics tables to sort in this order.

I think these were originally in the order that the columns appear in the
database table.

Happy to change to database table order if this is required.


Notes
~~~~~

[1] Description from Koha to MARC mappings.
[2] Could reword as "Series title", but have used the 490$a description.
[3] See Bug 29635 - Map biblioitems.collectionissn to 490$x by default (MARC21)
(bug status = NEW).
[4] Full name in 490$v is 'Series volume/sequential designation', but 'Series
volume' is probably sufficient (MARC21 definition label is 'Volume/sequential
designation').
[5] Full name in 250$b is 'Remainder of edition statement', but 'Edition
responsibility' is probably sufficient (MARC21 definition is "Usually, a
statement of personal or corporate responsibility and/or a parallel edition
statement.".)
[6] Description from 942$2 is "Source of classification or shelving scheme",
have updated items > cn_source to match.
[7] items > cn_sort uses "Koha normalized classification for sorting", so have
kept the same for consistency.
[8] Name used in Koha to MARC mappings is "Koha issues (borrowed), all copies".
Have used the same description used for items.
