[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authority records

[Cerninakova Eva]

Hi all,


We are currently trying to implement Czech National authorities into
Evergreen and  have some question concerning authority records  (and may be
contribution to the debate on authorities during Evergreen conference in
Hood River) .

1) Does Evergreen support Z39.50 update function? Libraries in the Czech
Republic are involved in creation of  authority records s and  the issue of
Z39.50 update  is crucial  because tool providing update of records of the
Czech national  authorities by cooperating libraries  is based on Z39.50
update function.

2) Is it possible to replace Evergreen system authority number in field 001
with Czech National authority control number? According to the  Czech
national cataloging practice in the authority record the field 001 is used
for Czech national authority control number. It is of course possible to
use field 016 (National Bibliographic Agency Control Number), but as the
cooperation is based on „living“ update via Z39.50, moving authority
control number  might be   complication and potential barrier to
cooperation.

Thanks in advance for answers :-)

Eva
