Mazarinades cataloging project

Revision as of 09:32, 26 September 2016 by ErinBlake (talk | contribs) (Added list of fields)

Beginning in September 2016, Mazarinades in the Folger collection that were previously only noted by check-marking the Acquisitions Office copies of the standard bibliographies are being cataloged in Hamnet as part of an intern project. We are starting at call number DC124 .M831 Cage because single pamphlets with Moreau numbers up to and including 830 have been listed in a separate FileMaker Pro database, making them lower priority for electronic description.

Voyager instructions

  • Initial set-up: Options > Preferences > Folders/Files >
    • Templates > Bib: > l:\mazarinades project\mazarinadebib.tem
    • Work Files > Bib: > l:\mazarinades project\mazarinades.bib
  • To create a blank MARC field: put the cursor in the field immediately above where the new field should go and press the F4 key (shortcut for "insert blank field below"), or immediately below where the new field should go and press the F3 key (shortcut for "insert blank field above").
  • Create a new subfield by pressing the F9 key then the number or letter of the subfield; the system automatically inserts the space after it.)
  • Save the record to your Workfile
  • Mark the record "OK to export" on the "System" tab when you're ready for it to be reviewed by the project supervisor
