Hi all,

Koha 16.05 on Ubuntu 14.04, package install.

A brief question about bibliographic record unique identifiers and importing records into an empty Koha instance:

Is it advisable to map the unique ID numbers from a legacy system's bibliographic records to Koha 999c/d? I am attempting to find a way to connect our items database data to our bibliographics data once the latter has been uploaded to Koha. I imagine the best way to do this is to preserve the unique IDs (i.e., primary key in biblio, foreign key in items) from the legacy system, but I'm not quite sure how I should go about mapping this: should I go for Koha 999c/d, Marc 887, or some other field? The record matching module in Koha gives me much choice, but what does the collective wisdom think?

Thank you!
