Hello, Mr Olugbenga Adara, Thanks for your solution. It worked liked a charm. I am now able to import records from the reservoir into Koha through the cataloguing module. Thank you so much.
I also tried Bob Birchall solution too but did not know how to log into the Koha instance, create the instance as Z39.50 server and import the records. I failed and I think its mainly because of my limited knowledge. I will continue trying. Thanks a million though On 15 October 2014 07:57, Chrispin Simasiku Sitali <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mr Olugbenga, > > I am very fine.
