I. Verifying Required elements in the Instance record: The following elements of the bibliographic information can best be verified either in the “Edit in Quickmarc” screen, or the “View Source” screen in FOLIO, both of which are available from the Actions menu of the Instance record. They can also be viewed in OCLC Connexion before exporting the record to FOLIO.  Note: The Edit in Quickmarc screen should NOT be used to make any changes in the Instance record.  If there is any inaccurate information, typos, or other errors in the record, it the book cannot be fast-cat, and it should be routed to copy-cataloging with the appropriate information filled out on the flyer.

2. English language-of-cataloging: check the 040 field in Quickmarc or View Source.  The subfield ‘b’ in that field should either say “eng”, or be absent altogether.

Note: this field reflects the language that the book was cataloged in, not the language it was written in.  For example, a Spanish (spa) language-of-cataloging record will have the word "paginas" instead of "pages" in the 300 field, or the subject headings may be in Spanish, etc.).
