Recommendation

The Acquisitions Operations Subteam recommends that all order records (especially brief records) be ingested to the IZ, and only linked to the NZ after being updated with a full record. This includes records containing OCLC #s. We are discussing primarily GOBI in this data analysis, but recognize that other vendors provide data, sometimes including OCLC #s, in brief records supplied in mrc, spreadsheet, or other formats. For campuses that are manually downloading OCLC records to import for materials received, it has been the experience of larger campuses like UCLA that keeping them in the IZ is still the safer option so catalogers can make adjustments like switching between set and stand-alone record without having to make adjustments in the NZ.
