Hi Cab,

Unfortunately, Koha's MARC modification tool cannot do any changes in control fields, AFAIK.

I usually tell people to use MarcEdit to do such batch changes. Here's a procedure I wrote (in French, but I'm sure Google can translate it for you) : https://inlibro.com/knowledge-base/modification-en-lot-des-zones-de-controle-avec-marcedit-1-lieu-de-publication-008-15-17/

I hope it helps,

Caroline

Hi, All --

Does anyone know if the Batch record modification tool can handle
control fields? -- specifically, changes to various positions in the
leader, 008, etc. We're trying to update the 008/33 in a large number
of records.

I've tried creating an action for this under a MARC modification
template, but it seems to be expecting standard fields & subfields
(i.e., it won't accept a 2 digit number to represent a position).

We can always export to MarcEdit, but if we can do this from within
Koha, that would be great.

All best,
