Create a print serial collection.
Note: If you are a WMS library or using full WorldShare Collection Manager, seeAbout adding print periodicals in your knowledge base
Represent your print serials in order to:
- Add print titles to the link resolver to surface them alongside full-text resources in your A to Z list
- Titles will not surface in WorldCat Discovery.
- Optimize the discovery of full-text resources by using coverage to determine article holdings in WorldCat Discovery
How to create a collection of print serials
Gather information about your print titles
Use a third-party tool to extract data from the records to create a KBART file. See the MarcEdit instructions below.
Utilizzate MarcEdit per estrarre campi specifici dal vostro file di record.
MarcEdit è disponibile per il download all'indirizzo: http://marcedit.reeset.net.
L'OCLC non può fornire assistenza per questo strumento di terzi. Trovate tutorial sull'uso di MarcEdit: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=marcedit.
Per utilizzare MarcEdit per estrarre campi specifici dal file dei record:
- Open your downloaded files of records in MarcEdit and convert them to a tab delimited file.
- Accedere a Strumenti > Esportazione > Esportazione di record delimitati da tabulazioni.
- In Set File Paths, enter the path of the file you downloaded from Collection Manager Fundamentals.
- Inserite il percorso in cui desiderate produrre i file.
- Cercare il file sorgente desiderato facendo clic sulla cartella accanto alla casella di testo. Fare clic su Avanti.
- Definire i campi e i sottocampi che si desidera esportare nel foglio di calcolo. Selezionare un campo e un sottocampo e fare clic su Aggiungi campo finché non sono rappresentati tutti i campi desiderati. Ad esempio, si può scegliere:
- ISBN (020$a),
- Numero OCLC (035 $a),
- Numero di chiamata LC (050 $a e $b),
- Autore (100 $a), e
- Titolo (245 $a, $b e $c)
- Una volta selezionati tutti i campi/sottocampi desiderati, fare clic su Esporta.
