Cornell will share YBP matrix

What kind of things can be tested in the Global Data Change module?

Language code errors or CP
GMD or RDA 3xx
040 $b eng (good test for inserting a string)
Identify changes to make pre ALMA or other system migration.

Something testing for Holdings data would be very useful.
MARC fixed fields from NOTIS migration

Older loaded recon records Date 1 field is blank, bars, uuuus compared to 260
948 fields?
100 10 Relationship designator ; restricted to AACR2 and RDA records.
Tag tables of language codes and compared against voyager.
ISBN's!
Lost a vendor used for smaller press / Booska is now out of business, using Ambassador, EDI set up.
Response time could be improved.
Last used them 9 years ago...
Usually matrix assigned, for smaller press or not current year, videos. GB used to be head of orders, we considered "BookHouse" they had a OP service, but ultimately went to Busca.
Matrix used to alleviate staff time commitments

Cornell has GDC configured. SysAdmin profiles need to be developed ; Peter Martinez and Gary will try.
They use theirs (refreshed every few month for Batch processing) refreshed by CM.
Gary has read through the manual - Mark has not yet.
GUI is a lot like vger select ; kind of clunky.
Store files on the server. So if you screw something up you can restore immediately. You can see befores and afters ; side by side marc views to be fairly sure of your results. They are thinking about batch deleting. Do entire database or selection records.
Build a query in scan or do full database.
Does no MARC validation, so you could delete every 245 and it would let you ; that is the danger of it.

Perhaps, let people identify records, let someone else do the manipulation.

FAST/NIC fast headings returns look good.
2 records with FAST/NIC
/NAF
/LCSH

OCLC will harvest them each month and will generate FAST.
ANother meeting when everyone gets back from ALA.

Lois did a study, perhaps with Karen Calhoun, about what needs to be in a preliminary record for it to match in OCLC (should be considered for Precat).

1) Polycom Team Lead Meeting Tuesday
2) Our page on the wiki
3) GDC

Gary got into the GDC this week. Can get some pieces to work. Cannot yet effect a change. Working through the nomenclature worked about half and hour.
They use a desktop service person does an .ini switcher ; care will have to be taken in using the correct .ini file, a test record to guarantee database as a further safety.
440 field text extract for testing. (records with a testing series to use for various tests)

Sat with manual and still not figuring it out. Not intuitive.
Acts a lot like VGER select in setting query language.
Lot of database cleaning. 1,000 records that need work every day. Historical mistakes in 948 fields
They get daily reports. Out of heavy stuff in 10 days or so....
Updates MFHD's and items.
Second indicator in 852 fix would be desirable.
Perhaps that can be an enhancement request. No ideas as to what will be available in Voyager 10, nothing exciting in voyager 9. GDC might be worthwhile for enhancement requests as it is still new. We can identify needs.
MARC Serials and AACR2 - Gary has a prevent for the 33x from sersol. USE OCLC API and take that sheet into

API is on the OCLC website for downloading, it is what POOF uses. Is configurable, OCLC Master, ISBN, LCCN, Restrict by Holdings Library (Like you can do in CONNEXION) LI: NJP (will append to search if you put a space between them for multiple qualifiers).

Loading of new Serial Solutions records in with the newly formatted 899 fields $i ; Gary more involved with the MARC aspects of it..

Got back their fourth sample of FAST headings and they look ready to move forward. The entire database will be done. For Blacklight facets. Plus FAST/NIC

Some authority fallout and clean up results from what they learn, older headings like Journeys.

Moving two collections to Serials Solutions for Knovel. Records seem to have improved, fairly full. October 1 load, so maybe take a look.

JSTOR records from their old WebInterface. 65,000 NAXOS records from NAXOS site, but very dirty. What Options from OCLC

HathiTrust API. - Google API. Michelle Palillo.

CSV to XML transformation - template file from Calturra video files, convert to XML ; A streaming service. Locally created CSV file by those who are making corrections including course reserves.

Peter Martinez and Hannah Marshall will develop script.

Lydia Pettis is the one leading the pre ALMA cleanup effort.(Suppression, item types, Continuation orders) ExLibris Documentation.

Annex materials with order locations, reference materials with catalog happening locations.
