[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] 016 & 029

[Mary Llewellyn]

We’re stripping the 029s. Am I missing a reason why we should be keeping them?

Elaine, is your system stripping the 029 on import of records into the system?  If so this is why it will not save the 029 in a record.  We just discovered this with our system (Sage Library System) recently with a different field.  Once we removed the field from those that were being stripped on import we were able to have the field saved in the bib.  Just a thought to explore & it may address Don's query as well, I'm not sure.

An 029 is a field used by OCLC to “system control numbers for records from non-OCLC automated systems (e.g., Library and Archives Canada, the British Library, WorldCat Cataloging Partners vendors, etc.). OCLC uses these numbers to process and track records from other systems.” http://www.oclc.org/bib formats/en/0xx/029.html <http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/029.html> . Not sure why it doesn’t retain on save. An 019, which is another field specific to OCLC, does (see http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/019.html). 029 seems to be system supplied; but, the 019 is system supplied…

Hi Everyone,

As part of a project to add more fields to the general keyword index, we discovered that we can't add the 016 and the 029 control number fields to a MARC record. 

It looks like it saves, but it isn't there when you do a new search. It also never shows on the MARC View screen. 

What do we need to do to add these fields?

Thanks!

Don
