We have 50000 volumes in our college library and all the details of that are in excel that has been made before of koha installation. Now what I want is can I migrate all the data into koha and even if i can migrate the data, can it be accommodated effectively.

Dear sir,

Thank u very much for ur valuable reply. As per your instructions i had gone to the related site and i downloaded the marceditexcel setup file. while i am trying to install it on my computer it is asking me to install .net framework and if click yes it took me to the concern website to download .net framework. evenafter the download of .net if iam trying to install it on my computer again its asking me to install .net framework 3.1 for windows. i could not find the particular version. where i can download it. pls help me to trace or what are the supported software needed to be installed on my sytem prior to the installation of marceditexcel.

It's possible to migrate excel data to koha including holdings and circulation data. Before that it is imp to know, how the data is organized in the excel file. Importing of bibliographic details is almost easy. But holding is very difficult. At first we should organize koha parameters and excel file  according to the needs.

Dear sir,

Your suggestions are indeed helpful. Thanking you

If u want to use e-granthalaya, then use the utility tool available bellow link

sir,

  how  can it use in linux or ubndu. its only work in dos/ windows .please tell me the solution.

 

Marc edit is the suitable solution for converting excel data into koha. In Marc edit there is a component available Delimited text translator. Using that tool we can map excel columns into Marc fields.

thank you sir

if your problem is not solved send me your contact details on koustubh@cameoml.com
