worldcat local lists for serials reporting
DESCRIPTION
UPDATED NOTE Nov 2013: this method of storing information is no longer recommended by the creator of this presentation in light of new data... We migrated to WorldShare Management systems in June 2013, and this presentation is to show how our library is using WorldCat Local lists to create reports on current serials subscriptions because our system currently does not have the reporting ability we need to do our work.TRANSCRIPT

Things we need in a report for active serials subscriptions:
1) Journal title
2) Price we paid last year
3) Format of subscription
4) Academic department code associated with journal (for
knowing which library liaison to consult for subscription
decisions)
5) Any important notes, such as if a journal comes with a
membership or comes with a subscription to another
journal, etc.

HOW TO GET PRICE INFORMATION
![Page 27: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Copy entire spreadsheet for “Items Paid (Invoice Items Paid)”
![Page 28: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Paste into blank sheet in WorldCat Local spreadsheet
![Page 29: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Select all information in spreadsheet, and click “Format as Table”
![Page 30: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Remember (or change) name of table.
![Page 31: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Look to see how many columns to the right the information you need
is. In this example, we want price information, and that is 9 columns
to the right.
![Page 32: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Go back to WorldCat Local sheet, and insert a new column
![Page 33: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Use VLOOKUP function in the new blank column, choose the OCLC
number as the “lookup_value”
![Page 34: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Type the usage statistics table name in “table_array” section
![Page 35: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
For this example, type “9” for the “col_index_num” because that is
how many columns to the right the info we want is in the usage
statistics table we created.
![Page 36: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
For “[range_lookup]” type or select “FALSE”, then close parentheses
and hit “Enter” key on keyboard.
![Page 37: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
As long as there is a matching OCLC number in the usage statistics
table, the price info from column 9 will appear in this box.
![Page 38: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Hover mouse pointer over bottom right corner of box, and drag it down
through the entire column. Doing this will copy the function into every
box and excel will automatically change the “A2” to an “A3” for row 3 or
“A4” for row 4, etc.
![Page 39: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
If the usage statistics table does not have a corresponding OCLC
number, then “#N/A” will appear in the column instead of (for this
example) the info from column 9.
![Page 40: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Insert new column, copy column C information
![Page 41: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Click “Paste” and choose “Paste Special”, and then choose “Values”
bubble to paste just the numbers (not the functions) into column B.
![Page 42: WorldCat Local Lists for Serials Reporting](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052623/559abd851a28abcf4a8b475d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Then you can format column B to look like currency instead of just a
number.
