General record file workflow

Complete Workflow for Follett shelf-ready for Moore Library

  1. Edith Bowen Librarian orders

  1. Acquisition (Tyler) receives notice from Follett and downloads MARC record file

  1. Tyler passes MARC record file to Discovery Systems Librarian to load (email attachment)

  1. Discovery Systems Librarian loads records and uses Global Update to fix:

  • call number item fields for FIC (fiction) and E (easy reader) (092 to 099)

  • location for E (easy reader) (mdew to measy)

  1. Discovery System Librarian creates review file when loading and lets Tyler know name and availability

  1. Tyler uses review file to attach orders and pay

Notes

949 fields as provided by Follett:

 

=949  \\$a975.3 SMI$i39060018250737$t2

default item gives 092 and mdew

=949  \\$aFIC REX$i39060018250893$lmficb$t2

$lmficb but needs 092 change to 099

=949  \\$aE STE$i39060018250422$t2

needs 092 to 099 and mdew to measy

001 fields are already good (unique with prefix for Follett):

=001  fol14172509

No need to use MarcEdit, if desired.  All edits can be done in Sierra.

II-Loading

Load table = BATCH LOAD Follett shelf ready (.follett)

  1. Remember to select Use Review File as usual; Test, and if all looks good, then Load

  2. In Create Lists, Copy, and find Follett load file as usual

  • no overlay should occur

  • Follett default bib template provides Moore Library location and bib code 3 of “k” (no SkyRiver)

  • Follett default item template provides location of “mdew” and item call number line in load table provides call number field of “092”

  • Follett load table deletes 510, 940, 856, all 6XX other than LC (2nd indicator 0), and 035

  • Follett load table adds 910  Follett shelf ready
