Cataloging
This process leaves your catalog with the one best" MARC record with all of the
copies attached to it. The exception report contains information about each move,
each deletion, and any processing errors.
Select the best
record.
Click to view
the record.
All copies are merged to one
MARC record.
The call number is taken from the
first copy. If a copy isn't available,
it's taken from the MARC record.
The Merge
button is
available
when two or
more titles
have been
added to the
Book Cart.
For DX-enabled union catalogs: The application transfers the resultant best
record to the appropriate members. The participation level and filter rules
determine whether or not the record is transferred to a particular member; the
DX matching rules determine whether or not the member's record is actually
updated. In any case, the copy information and statistics at the member are
preserved. Please note that this process does not move the copies in the member
databases, only the union's.
