Dear Sir,
After binding the bunch journal issues in a Bound Volume, same can be treated as a book. In this regard you can create a new item entry in Koha and you can entering the bibliographic data data same as you do in case of books and other resources.
The most important thing in this regard is that you have to edit (or also may be called mapping) the data of title/article indexed in your existing automate system as per the accession numbers of back volumes in which they (articles) exist.
Suppose, you have 12 issues of Volume 01 of a journal in which 72 titles/articles are published and now you want to make 3 sets of Bound Volumes in which all those 12 issues would be bounded. After bound work, you will find that the articles of each bound volumes got a new identity they are now a part of bound volumes. Now all 72 articles may be divided in the range of 24 (app. figure) in each Bound Volume sets. If you are giving accession numbers to Bound volumes then the accession numbers will be like; 1,2,3 respectively.
So the articles 01-24 will be mapped with bound volume on. 01 and 25-48 in Bound volume 02 and rest in Bound Volume 03. and articles easily can be traced in bound volumes.So this way your problem is solved. If you have doubt in above kindly share.
Thank You...
