MARC records from vendors

Revision as of 18:26, 3 June 2022 by ErinBlake (talk | contribs) (→‎Online facsimiles: added 583 for MarcEdit batch editing task)

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 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)
  • 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)
  • Adam Matthew databases (from https://www.amdigital.co.uk/support/marc-records, login not required)
    • Early Modern England: 772 records
    • Literary Manuscripts Leeds: 190 records
    • Literary Print Culture: 1,908 records
    • Perdita Manuscripts, 1500-1700: 216 records
    • Shakespeare in performance: 1,138 records
    • Shakespeare's Globe Archive: 1,759 records for documents, 26 records for non-musical recordings (oral history interviews)
    • Virginia Company Archives: 2,899 records
  • Gale databases (by request, except for British Literary Manuscripts)
    • British Literary Manuscripts (from https://support.gale.com/marc/, login not required)
      • 17 records for source microfilm collection titles (leads to description and targeted search)
      • 7 records for targeted searches for each of seven parts of the Medieval literary and historical manuscripts in the Cotton Collection, British Library, London
      • replace =[LOCATIONID] with =wash46354
      • LDR, 006, and 007 are okay as-is, but change "s" to "o" in 008/23
      • ignore the lack of a 300 (the records use the imprint of the original microfilm sets, so adding "1 online resource" would require updating imprint and fixed field dates to match the database)
    • Burney Collection Newspapers
    • Eighteenth century collections online (ECCO)
    • Nichols Newspapers Collection
    • British Theatre, Music, and Literature: High and Popular Culture (from Nineteenth Century Collections Online)
  • ProQuest databases
