S Important for Winnebago Imports: When you select the Winnebagor
Records option, you're alerted that some additional processing may be
necessary. If your database already contains records, you will also be
reminded to run a backup before proceeding (see page 607).
When importing Winnebago records, the Import button is disabled
because you must first preview the results of your import. However,
before you proceed, make certain that you review the information starting
on page 297.
See also: If you're running Union Catalog Plus, see page 295 for instructions
on assigning copies to a member.

new barcodes to those copies without them, or assign new barcodes to all
incoming copies:

852_p subfield to the copy. If the incoming copy has no barcode, Import
creates no copy and makes an entry in the exception report.

852_p subfield to the copy. If the incoming copy has no barcode, Import
assigns one starting with the number in the If none available, start at text
