To edit a record, from the MARC View window (see page 249), select File |

Brief MARC Record tab

The Brief MARC Record tab contains the basic information about the item you're

cataloging: title, standard numbers, material type, author, publication

information, and physical format. Entering information on this one tab creates a

brief record; it contains only tags 000 through 300.

Note:

If you plan to recon the records with Alliance Plus, you need to enter just

the title and any standard numbers (LCCN, ISBN, or ISSN) and select the

correct material type. Alliance Plus adds the rest (see Chapter 31,

Autorecon and Reading Program Recon").

Tip:

To make this even easier: Enter the title; put the cursor in the ISBN field;

and just scan the ISBN barcode on the back cover of the book. See

Appendix H (page 699) for information on scanning ISBN barcodes.

To enter your information, use the table on page 257. For additional information,

click Help.

You must enter a title

before you can save

the record.

If you're adding a new

record, select the material

type that most closely

matches the item you're

cataloging (see page 264

for descriptions).

Please note: microfiche

reproductions should use

the material type of the

original; there is also a

selection in the list

specifically for eBooks.
