2 | Shared rules | Review spreadsheet for common fields; talk about vocabularies that do/don’t belong in the NZ | Data removed during OCLC export 6XX fields: which ones do we love, which ones do we hate, which ones are we indifferent to? | We’re reluctant to force all campuses to have the same practices, due to rules about student workers and copy cataloging, foreign language vocabularies, etc. However,
We’ll give it more thought

3 | OCLC# in NZ | Can we require OCLC numbers in NZ bibs? Both NRLF and SRLF have large stores of records with no OCLC numbers. Are they the exception and does RMFG want to formally ask that the RLFs prioritize that cleanup post-migration? From Hermine:

ELUNA paper: Tomren, Holly and Finnigan, Leanne and Gomez, Ligia (2020) Authority Control in Alma: Comparing Workflows and Results. | The preferred term correction job in Alma is universally panned and no one uses it. Other Alma users do authority control in OCLC. Is there a way to get lists of mis-matched headings to make manual authority control easier? Is there a way to set the NZ validation profile to not allow improper local information to be added? |
