Why the need for a new ILMS?

Our existing ILMS, III’s Millennium, had reached its end of life, and no new

functionality was being added

The legislated, mandated requirement to raise the visibility of the SANB

Our wish to increase the international footprint of the NLSA

The need to streamline work flows and work processes

Our desire to improve the discovery experience of our users, in line with new

technological functionality

Our need to manage our legal deposit e-resources

Our need to create a Heritage Asset register in line with GRAP 103

Why WorldShare Management Services (WMS)

It is a system we know and it provides us with international exposure

Launched in 2011 over 600 libraries worldwide have subscribed to its services

It provides a suite of applications covering all our library needs

It makes use of cloud hosting

It provides an international forum for collaboration, co-operation and sharing of

data, meaning you become part of a global library co-operative

Record Manager: what is it all about?

WorldShare Record Manager allows you to create new and enrich existing

items in WorldCat with efficient, record-at-a-time metadata management for

your physical and electronic materials

WHAT TO EXPECT!!!!!!

This presentation is just that, it is a presentation (not a workshop) it outlines the

ways you can create a bibliographic record and associated Local Bibliographic

Data (LBD) record and Local holdings Record (LHR) on WMS in Record

Manager

I will not be teaching you how to catalogue, and I assume that you are familiar

with both MARC and RDA.

This presentation is divided into two parts: a theoretical explanation with

associated screenshots as to how to create a bibliographic record, and

(hopefully) a live demonstration of this theory, concentrating on the creation of

a derived record

I would like to take this opportunity of thanking my NLSA colleagues for

assisting me with this presentation.

Particularly Mrs M. de Beer who expertly and patiently steered me around the

functionality associated with the creation of the Bibliographic records, Local

Holdings Records and Local Bibliographic Data

THANK YOU

ANY QUESTIONS?

No? Excellent!!

Let’s move on to the practical demonstration of the creation of a bibliographic

record and the associated Local Holdings Record and Local Bibliographic Data
