Hi Linda,<br>
<br>
I just re-read your message and noticed that you were asking about
loading records in acquisitions.<br>
<br>
While my previous e-mail is true for acquisitions record loading
as well, I also wanted to point out that in acquisitions, we
always use the match-only merge profile, which does not overlay
existing records, rather than going through this more complicated
process of evaluating record quality.<br>
<br>
Generally, we find that vendor records uploaded during ordering
are going to either be worse or the same quality as the ones
already in the database. If it matches an existing record, then,
we only want to add the holdings information, not overlay any of
the bib fields.<br>

<font size="-1">Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I am wondering if anyone could tell me how to ensure the best
record is kept/chosen during the overlay process when
ordering.<br>
Today I had a brief record in my order which overlaid a much
better permanent record already in the catalog when I
activated my order. This surprised me as I thought the system
was set up to choose the better of the two records and keep
it. In looking at the settings I have selected in the upload
to queue screen, I see "Best/single match minimum quality
ratio __ New record quality/quality of best match" which I
have not been using. Is this where I would instruct the
system to keep the permanent higher quality record instead of
the temporary one in my order? I am also not sure what the
"insufficient quality fall through profile" does but was told
not to use this when we received our training in Evergreen.<br>
<br>
Of course, if I am aware of a permanent record in the catalog
which I would like to keep, I usually order from/on that
record. But as we are a consortium using different ordering
processes, occasionally I am not aware that a record already
exists in the catalog as was the case today.<br>
<br>
Thank you for any advice you can give on this matter,<br>
