[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Electronic title - search filter

[Hardy, Elaine]

It is always a better thing to get a legitimate record for the item in had 
rather than to get “creative” with an nonmatching record. You never know 
when a mishmash record will cause other problems down the line. There are 
reasons for cataloging standards.



If you use OCLC for a bibliographic utility, there is likely a good 
e-resource record you can use. If not, deriving one from a good print record 
is not that hard.

Hi Elaine,

Kathy's information confirms my cataloging dilemma.

Changing Form to "s" actually changes a print record into an electronic 
record.  Technically I should add a whole new bib record for the electronic 
version. (Lot o' work)

Creating a copy/item record would be less work, and as Jennifer points out 
you could then use the Circ Modifier as a filter. But that doesn't fit into 
the default search filter options.

There's always a problem when a cataloger gets "creative". I probably should 
go ahead and just find a legitimate bib record for the titles and be done.

Oh well ...

Don

Don,



As others have said, the search filter is for the MARC fixed field Form 
(008/23). I don’t know if the 006/06 is also included in the filter or if it 
can be added.



Are you adding an 856 to a record for another format rather than using a 
MARC record for the e-resource?

All,

Simply adding an 856 tag to a MARC record does not make it possible to do a 
search for the described electronic resource using the Advanced Search 
Filter, "Item Form: Electronic". What hook can be added to the bib record so 
that the Search Filter can be used?

Thanks,

Don
