What's included in the Next-Generation Melvyl Pilot
What can I find in it?
Everything with our OCLC holdings code (CUY) set on it is in the
pilot. Additionally, our Shared Cataloging Program materials will be in the
pilot with their (CUYER) holdings code, as well as at least some
records from the Google digitization project, with another unique holdings
code.
What has our CUY holdings code set on it?
All records in GLADIS that are high level (GLADIS levels f, r, b = 5.5
million records). Also, new d-level records for the new temporary
cataloging workflow are being created in OCLC, so d-level records created
after mid-April 2008 will be in the pilot (d = DLA/CDL minimum standard
records - usually no LC subject headings). Another category that will have
our holdings set over time are t-level records provided for us by
PromptCat when a full record is not available, intended for later upgrade
to full level.
How does this relate to what Berkeley has
in Melvyl?
Mevlyl contains all of the above, but includes all d-level and t-level records, and additionally includes
c-level serial records, some p-level records, and records of all levels
for the affiliated libraries (both those who use GLADIS as their catalog
and those who do not).
What additional categories of records are
in GLADIS but not in Melvyl or OCLC?
Order records
Reserve records
NRLF n-level inventory control records for northern UC campuses
Quick records created at charge for items not barcoded
