I've adapted Koha to make a catalog of local authors, mostly from Medline* 
citations adapted to fit MARC format--see medstarauthors.org. Doing a clipping 
catalog would be similar--you could create item types for 
newspapers/magazines/blogs/videos/etc., use the 245 field for the article's 
title, another field for the name of the publication. I'd hope that the article 
has a static URL for the 856 field, though it's probably too much to hope it 
has a DOI.** Most of the other fields would be fairly easy to adapt to MARC.

It's definitely possible. Just make sure you have everything mapped out before 
you get started. It isn't difficult to go back and modify every bib record 
because you realized you needed to add another tag, but it's kind of tedious. 
Don't ask me how I know this. I just do. :-)

Good luck!

*Medline: the major database for medical literature citations, run by the US 
National Library of Medicine. See pubmed.gov.
**Digital Object Identifier. Are they common outside the scientific field?

Subject: [Koha] clipping catalog in Koha

wise people, has anyone done a "clipping" catalog , ie clippings from 
newspapers / magazines and even blogs, but of which we don't have a item 
(physical copy) ?
