The following is a list of macros used in the Collection division. All macros except the Connexion macros were created with MacroExpress.

Connexion

OCLC Connexion comes with about 15 macros pre-loaded for catalogers to use when creating and editing records. Some examples are:

  • Add33x generates a set of 336, 337, and 338 fields (content, media, and carrier types) based on cataloger input, and is useful when creating or updating records to RDA.
  • GenerateAuthorityRecord creates a bare-bones authority record from a 1xx or 7xx field, and streamlines the entry of common authority information such as associated place and language.
  • GenerateERecord derives an e-resource record from the record currently being worked on (for example, if a cataloger discovers that the book they are working with has been digitized by the Hathi Trust, but a record has not yet been created in OCLC for the digitized version)


In the Connexion client interface, macros can be accessed at Tools > Macros > Manage (or Ctrl+Alt+Shift+G). Connexion macros can be edited, adapted, or created from scratch with the Edit or New Macro commands; more information can be found in the Macros section of OCLC's Connexion client documentation.

Many librarians and libraries have made collections of their own OCLC macros available: Joel Hahn has a number of useful macro resources, as does Walter Nickeson.

IrfanView

ctrl+alt+shift+2

When the left page of a two-page-spread is highlighted, saves each page separately and navigates to the next two-page-spread. (To be used with the ctrl+alt+shift+c macro.)

ctrl+alt+shift+c

Crops the blank space from all of the chopped-in-half images in a directory, and exits IrfanView when finished. (To be used with the ctrl+alt+shift+2 macro.)

ctrl+shift+r

Batch renames thumbnails from the "images jpg" folder into the "images" folder (created with the ctrl+shift+i macro), then exits IrfanView.

Other

ctrl+shift+i

Within a BookReader folder within the "bookreaders to upload" folder, adds three empty folders, one called "images", one called "images jp2k", and one called "images jpg", and a book.properties file.

ctrl+shift+e

With Outlook open, sends an email to [Person 1] and [Person 2] alerting them of a bookreader upload.

ctrl+shift+f

After copying a link from Luna, pastes a properly formatted link into the finding aid.

ctrl+shift+a

When a Bard Classic-style link (text: link) is highlighted, changes it to a Bard2/Folgerpedia-style link ([link text]).

alt+shift+s

When the text is highlighed, will flip text from [string a], [string b] to [string b], [string a].

ctrl+alt+t

When text is highlighted, a text box will display with the ASCII values of the characters in the highlighted text.

ctrl+shift+L

For BBI project: in Access, to be used when "leaf" is left off before the signature. This macro will add "leaf" to the beginning of the page-level metadata field in the highlighted cell, and then navigate to the cell below.
