Questions to ask before buying Is this a subscription or purchase? Will the vendor provide valid MARC
records? Do the records contain unique ID numbers,
preferably in the 035 field? What is the total size of the record load? Will there be future updates or deletions? Is the vendor website OpenURL compliant? Do I want these records added to OCLC?

Cataloguing overview: LDR/06
Position 6 = File type “a” = language materials
Nonmanuscript language material, microforms of nonmanuscript language material and essentially textual electronic resources.
“m”= electronic resources Use code “m” only for these general classes of electronic
resources: computer software, numeric data, computer-oriented multimedia and online systems or services.
This revised definition stipulates that catalogers code electronic resources for the significant aspects of their content, as opposed to their carrier Example: Serials Solutions’ records are incorrectly coded as
'computer files' in the leader

Cataloguing overview: LDR/07
The Leader/06 determines which 008 code (Fixed-length data elements - General information) is used and the appropriateness and validity of other fixed data elements in a record.
Leader/07 (bibliographic level) indicates whether language materials are monographs or serials

Cataloguing overview: 006 field 006/00 = Form of material
“m” = Computer file 006/09 = Type of computer file
“d” = Document

Cataloguing overview: 007 field 007/00 = Category of material
“c” = Computer file 007/01 = Special material designation

Cataloguing overview: 856 field
Permanent URL resides in 856 $u The Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), for example a URL or
URN, provides electronic access data in a standard syntax
OLS recommends that libraries set up their local website and proxy configuration file to proxy the catalog Replaces previous practice of appending local EZproxy prefix
to the beginning of each URL

MarcEdit MarcBreaker
Breaks a MARC record into MarcEdit's mnemonic file format (*.mrc), the Library of Congress's MARCXML Schema, and Dublin Core
Use this function to move vendor records from *.mrc or *.dat formats into the *.mrk format used in the MarcEditor
MarcMaker Make MarcEdit's mnemonic file format back into MARC
(*.mrc) from the MARC Tools dialog and the MarcEditor. Use this to convert completed and saved *.mrk files
back into the *.mrc file format used in record loads

MarcEdit MarcEditor
Allows users to interact directly with their MARC records, use this function for viewing and editing
The file types *.mrk and *.mrk8 are associated with the MarcEditor function

Removing records from Aleph Complete sets by system number range Delete items by unique identifier
Need for identifier, preferably in the 035 OLS will centrally delete from Aleph only in
batches of 50+ records
