Network Zone OCLC Integrations (Search External Resources and Connexion Export) will use a normalization rule that will be configured in the network zone instance and used by all campuses. This document describes the CSU-wide normalization rule used in these integrations.
Policy Statement
Explain effects of NZ norm rule and rationale for why each institution may want to copy the norm rule used for OCLC record import and merge for use with their local IZ.
The current normalization rule, CSU Remove 029,938,948 removes the 029, 938 and 948 Marc fields from the NZ record. The 029 is removed because it is a vendor control number and serves no function in Alma. Futhermore, the Orbis Cascade Alliance found that numerous 029 fields caused problems with record processing. The 938 and 948 Marc fields are also vendor-specific data with no function in Alma.
