• Outdated LCSH - downloaded ~3500 records from OCLC and asked for them to be loaded through the WCDU profile. Results TBD.

TJ (UCD)

9XXs:

• How is this process going?

Continue to review more 9XX? – yes. Hermine will run a few fields/week.

Will look at 900-949 later as well.

NZ bibs without OCLC numbers checkin

Records that originated in the CZ (e.g. 9914811160206531)

Any other issues?

Orphaned NZ Bibs

10 mins

All

Currently SILS Ops Center has a process for dealing with orphaned CZ bibs ()(as well as NZ bibs that have been marked for deletion), but not for orphaned NZ bibs not marked (e.g. 9918995226306531). Should there be a process?

There seems to be records disconnected from CZ and remaining in NZ--some unidentified CZ issues may be creating orphaned bibs in NZ

Will need a process for orphaned NZ bibs not marked

Rule discussion

• Remove protection of 590s?
  -- Concerns about e-resources
  -- 590 large TOC issue:
  OCLC’s response “one recommendation is to set your customization profile to remove the 590 MARC fields. This may at least remove the extra 590 fields when included in the record. It looks like you have already removed the default add 590s from your profile, but it may help if you have those fields removed from the record entirely”
  Our response “I don’t think we want to remove the 590 since that would mean part of the TOC data would be removed from the record.
  We have an Alma report now that finds the 590s and we’ve been going into the WorldCat record and splitting the 505 fields into two so it’s not one super-long field. We can continue doing that but we were hoping that OCLC could also come up with a solution.”

• Remove 856 fields with 2nd indicator 3 and 4?

035 OCLC# with extra letters:
Should have been added to norm rule#2 (for WCDU) but erased at some point??

Table 59Xs/9XXs

Gather and review records with the new indicators already in Alma; and test the rule in Sandbox

Restricting editing of fields update (if time)

5 mins

All

Cataloger level would need to be configured with Ex Libris, so put a pin in that.
Gem set up the configuration yesterday and the small group (Adam, Hermine, Shi, TJ) has just started testing.

Observations so far:

• It doesn’t affect the NZ instance of Alma.
• We’re still able to run the mark for deletion norm rule (excellent!)
