MARC records from vendors

Revision as of 10:32, 5 June 2022 by ErinBlake (talk | contribs) (→‎List of resources with vendor-supplied record sets: added MarcEdit instruction to find Wiggins and Richardson)

MARC records supplied by vendors require editing before they can be batch-loaded into the catalog. This page describes edits that need to be made to all vendor-supplied records.

Printed resources

Fields to add

  • 500__ $a This record was provided by a vendor. It may contain incorrect or incomplete information. $5 DFo
  • 980__ $a BIB
  • 983__ $a Not-vault

Online facsimiles

Delete:

  • 506 Restrictions on access (Folger reserves this for physical restrictions; license restrictions are implicit in 852$h)
  • 538 ("Mode of access: Internet" and "Mode of access: WWW" are no longer necessary)

Replace, if necessary:

  • LDR/06: do not use "m" for digital or digitized documents
  • LDR/06: for digitized manuscripts, use codes t, d, and f (Folger practice is contrary to OCLC, which considers digitized manuscripts to be "published" resources)
  • 008/23: use "o" ("online") not "s" ("electronic")
  • 006 for digital documents: m\\\\\\\\d\\\\\\\\
  • 007 for digital scans of documents: cr\un\---uuuua (in theory, "color" and "antecedent/source" could be coded something other than "unknown" but in practice, we want the records to remain valid if a vendor replaces page images scanned from microfilm with page images scanned from the original)
  • 007 for native ebooks: cr\un\---uuuun
  • Link text in 852 other than $u if they don't make sense for the Folger catalog

Move:

  • Vendor 001 and 003 move to 035, in this format and order: (003)001

Add:

Don't worry about:

  • 040$d (because editing by Folger staff is automatically recorded in TIND record history and manually recorded in MARC 583)

List of resources with vendor-supplied record sets

  • ACLS Humanities E-Book collection
  • Oxford Scholarly Editions Online (OSEO): 272 records
    • Remove individual records for each volume of Martin Wiggins and Catherine Richardson, British Drama 1533–1642: A Catalogue in favor of one record for the entire set (rec id 544900): subject headings are identical, and tables of contents are very incomplete (e.g. v. 1 covers 1533-1566 with entries for 440 plays, but table of contents only has entries for 37 plays, and goes to the start of 1537). Note: punctuation in 245$a varies, so search by field "F#:245$c Martin Wiggins and Catherine Richardson (eds)" to find all nine in MarcEdit.
