Background

Bibliographic records provided by vendors may contain order data to create PO lines and inventory info to populate the holdings and item records. Import profiles include specifications for loading WorldCat Cataloging Partners (WCP), including shelf-ready, bibliographic records.

Policy Statement

This document describes the procedures and settings for importing vendor Marc records provided by vendors into the Network Zone. This document will specifically discuss using YBP/Gobi but the considerations and setup will apply to other vendors. It also describes the match settings to use when importing Marc records with or without OCLC numbers.

Best practice recommendations

The import process is as follows:

  1. Brief bibliographic record is added to the NZ and a PO line is created. [New Order import profile]

  2. Full bib record overlays the brief recordbib. [Repository import profile]

  3. For shelf-ready materials, item/holdings record is updated. [Update Inventory import profile]
