[Evergreen-catalogers] batch editing bibs question

Sun Jan 17 09:15:34 EST 2016

I love the record query -- it has simplified merging records so much.
Coupled with being able to view holdings and remove a record from
consideration, I find merging records much easier and faster. 

One problem with it is that you cannot empty the pending records without
reopening the record bucket interface. If I'm working on  a lot of titles,
I just do that every so often.

Hi Elaine,

Thanks for mentioning the record query option and Help button.  You just
made a record merging project one of our libraries is working on a lot
easier.
