[Evergreen-catalogers] [External] Basket to bucket and batch edit

[Efron, Jessica M]

Tricia,

I have had good luck with

  1.  exporting records from a bucket and checking the ‘Include items’ option.
  2.  quickly running the exported through MarcEdit to come up with a .csv list of the barcodes (852 $p).
  3.  I’ll visually make sure the barcodes are ‘ours’ (consortium situation),
  4.  Save as a text file,
  5.  then use the barcode list to create an item bucket.

I realize it sounds crazy to list the steps, but it really doesn’t take that long.

Hello all,
I'm hoping to find a quick way to batch edit item (holdings) information for 89 titles.  It's our boardgame collection which needs a couple fields in the item information changed. The games are housed in 4 branches so I'm not able to physically scan barcodes.

I've done a search in the staff catalogue and selected them into a basket. From the basket I can move them to a bucket, but it seems I can't specify an item bucket, which has the editing options I need, rather than a record bucket, which is no good to me at all.

Does anyone know of a way I can work on these titles quickly?  I can of course go through the bucket title by title but would very much love there to be a batch solution!
