[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Importing records from Listen Alaska into EverGreen and the OPAC

Hi Reba, 

I believe you are referring to electronic resources rather than physical copies? There is relevant information in the wiki in the section "Making electronic resources visible in the catalogue" and an example using the Project Gutenberg recordings. The solution required involves queries directly against the database, but they are fairly simple queries.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Importing records from Listen Alaska into EverGreen and the OPAC 

I am trying to get the Listen Alaska records visible on our OPAC. 
I am able to get files from OCLC, and edit the 949 field into them 
all at once, and export them into Ever Green. My problem is that our OPAC 
can't see them until we add volumes and edit item attributes on the items. 
Is there a way to do the editing in a batch? We REALLY don't want to have to 
alter each of the multi thousand items individually. We are running 
Evergreen 1.6
