How NOT to Add Local Fields.
Using the Metadata Editor Edit > Add Field (F8) command and then add the "$$9local" subfield in the ME does NOT work. The field will be a normal field in the NZ and will be lost when the NZ bib record is overlaid. Similarly, adding the "$9 local" subfield in OCLC Connexion before downloading the bib record into Alma will also NOT work, and the new field will again be lost when the NZ bib record is overlaid.
- IZ-only records
Please see Display of Local Fields from IZ Records in Primo for additional metadata required for local fields in IZ-only records.
Reserved Fields
- Ex Libris has reserved 900-949 fields. These fields should not be used for local data. NOTE: 949 is reserved for RapidILL publishing profile.
Network Reserved Fields. Fields 976-979 and 982-988 are reserved for future use as Network-wide notes. Any use of these local note fields will be added to this table after the use is approved by the Technical Services Working Group Leads.
Institution Reserved Fields. Fields 958, 962-969, and 972 are reserved for local institution-defined internal notes. Any CSU library is free to define any of these fields for local use. These local internal note fields do not publish to Primo.
OCLC Reserved Fields. Fields 950, 951, 956, 987, 989-999 are reserved for OCLC use per information contained in OCLC's Bibliographic Formats and Standards and are not to be used for Network or local use in Alma or Primo. Note, however, that field 999 is being used as the default “Network-defined CR_RESTRICTED field for course reserve records” to restrict access to “personal copies” on reserves.
