Decision-making process

This decision only encompasses whether a given category of bibliographic record should be added into the Alma Network Zone during data migration. It does not address whether a given category of record should be migrated into a campus IZ or how to prevent those records from being migrated into the NZ; that will be left up to ILS Data Cleanup and the local campus groups. It also acknowledges that there will be errors during the migration and data extract process. This decision also does not indicate types of records that should be left out of the NZ after migration during regular day-to-day work.

**Campuses should be mindful of removing OCLC holdings for any records that they aren’t migrating to either the NZ or their IZ.

To the extent possible, the following categories of records should be left out of the Alma NZ:

  • Records for local equipment

  • Suppressed records

  • Records for non-library reserves resources (i.e., personal copy)

  • Records marked for deletion

  • On the fly records

  • Records with cat dates but otherwise lacking inventory/orders

  • Records with sharing limitations (see separate page on shelf-ready (Test Load/Go-live) YBP Shelf-ready Bibliographic Records in the NZ )

    • From the Technical Services Escalation Group:Records with sharing limitations should not be exported into the Network Zone. Campuses should strive to make themselves aware by the time of the actual implementation of any record sets with such sharing restrictions, so that they may negotiate with the provider the broader UC sharing of the data, or if that is not possible make plans for the data to migrate no further than the IZ. 

  • Other records lacking OCLC numbers

    • Records without OCLC numbers will only load into IZ

    • Campuses can add them to the NZ post-migration using linking jobs
