If you select Delete All, once processing is complete, the application

by the Delete All process. This report identifies the title, LCCN, and the tag

number that was deleted.

reverse changes that have been made by canceling the process.

Deleting titles without copies globally

With Global Delete Titles Without Copies, Cataloging finds and deletes all title

MARC records in your database that have no copies attached to them. Optionally,

you can choose to preserve certain MARC records that have no copies but do

have usable links to electronic resources. Use this feature to remove unneeded or

duplicate records from your database. Search results in OPAC then include only

titles with actual copies (or links) for your patrons.

Warning:

All deletions are immediate. You cannot undo them by canceling the

process. The data cannot be recovered.
