[Evergreen-catalogers] Evergreen-catalogers Digest, Vol 119, Issue 3

[Mary Wilson]

Here are my answers (Carteret County Public Library System/NC Cardinal Consortium)

*A few questions about Authority Records and how (or if) they are used in
your library: *

1) Is your library currently using authority records?
Yes

2) If so, do you work with an authority records service vendor like Marcive
or Backstage?
Yes, our consortium uses Marcive's authority records service (quarterly).

3) If so, do you have local documentation for working with authorities
beyond what is available in the official Evergreen Community Documentation?
Not really, no.

4) Lastly, if you have any specific topics or questions you would like to
add to the Authority-Fest agenda, please let me know.
Since we don't have any local documentation and I'm still not sure I understand the Evergreen documentation, I'd love it if someone could do an overview of how the system handles authorities.  From what I've gathered, authority records only seem to function in the Browse search, in that the 400 "See" references display in the results.  However, I'm not seeing the 1XX authorized headings displaying in these results, the headings show up as they appear in the bib record, complete with subfields, which is a mess and makes no sense to me.  Here's an example:

Patterson, James 1947- (99)<https://carteret.nccardinal.org/eg2/en-US/staff/catalog/search?org=1&&&&&hasBrowseEntry=2352640,10,8&dateOp=is>
Patterson, James, 1947- (15)<https://carteret.nccardinal.org/eg2/en-US/staff/catalog/search?org=1&&&&&hasBrowseEntry=2352540,8&dateOp=is>
Patterson, James 1947- creator (99)<https://carteret.nccardinal.org/eg2/en-US/staff/catalog/search?org=1&&&&&hasBrowseEntry=8043451,37&dateOp=is>

Patterson, James 1947- creator 1947- author. (1)<https://carteret.nccardinal.org/eg2/en-US/staff/catalog/search?org=1&&&&&hasBrowseEntry=10373920,37&dateOp=is>

As we finalize plans for Authority-Fest next Friday, I would love to gather
a little information from the Evergreen Cataloging Community.

Even if you do not plan to attend Authority-Fest next week, your input will
be greatly appreciated!

The full agenda will be distributed early next week. General topics will
be: a presentation on current authority records functionality; discussion
of current workflows / best practices / documentation; known issues &
launchpad bugs; crafting a wishlist, and making plans for moving forward.

*A few questions about Authority Records and how (or if) they are used in
your library: *

1) Is your library currently using authority records?

2) If so, do you work with an authority records service vendor like Marcive
or Backstage?

3) If so, do you have local documentation for working with authorities
beyond what is available in the official Evergreen Community Documentation?

4) Lastly, if you have any specific topics or questions you would like to
add to the Authority-Fest agenda, please let me know.

 You can reply to the list or email me directly at

Best regards,
Jennifer
