Deleting subject headings by source globally
The Global Delete Subject Headings by Source feature lets you quickly find and
delete selected subject tags in your bibliographic records. This lets you improve
the uniformity, and reduce duplication, of the subject headings in your database.
If you purchase our Authority Record Service and opt to import LC or Sears
headings only, this feature can help you align your bibliographic records with
your authority records. This makes it easier for you and your patrons to find
items in your collection.
From the Cataloging main window, choose Edit | Global Delete | Subject
Headings By Source. The dialog appears:
