Though I believe with Koha the record editor has labelled fields, so you could stick with Title and Author for simplistic cataloging (or with Evergreen, just remember 245 = title and 100 = author). I know that would horrify a cataloger versed in MARC, though, and you'd be losing subject headings, record types, etc. -- Jason Etheridge | Equinox Software, Inc. / The Open Source Experts | phone: 1-877-OPEN-ILS (673-6457) | email: [email protected] | web: http://www.esilibrary.com | Supporting Koha and Evergreen: http://koha-community.org & http://evergreen-ils.org
