Recommendation

Local campuses should use local_field_1 through local_field_50 for display, search and faceting. Local_field_51 through local_field_100 should be reserved for centrally managed display, search and faceting.

...

There are 100 local fields that are available for customization (local fields 1-_field_1 through local_field_100). 

Dependencies

Recommendation is dependent on whether there will be central management of local fields 51-100. 

...

  • Would we want local fields 51-100 to be centrally managed in order to harmonize common fields used across campuses? If so, who should manage local fields 51-100 (RMFG?)? ? Use of normalization rules and ability to make changes in the NZ require expertise beyond Discovery.

  • Are MARC fields that are currently enabled for display, search and/or faceting by multiple campuses (as indicated on MARC fields document) candidates for centrally managed local fields?
