  30. OCLC Searching Tips • Many subject headings with free-floating subdivisions have been established by LC with cross references • May need to search multiple OCLC indexes • Example: Shakespeare is in both name and subject indexes • Corporate author, uniform title, personal name, subject, conference

  31. OCLC Downloading Tips • Interactive Downloading • Authority records for 100, 110, 111 or 130 headings automatically index as author or title • When authority record is needed for the subject index, copy authority record to subject index • Delete authority record in original index if not needed • Watch authority records with mixed tags (150 with 400 and 500 xrefs) • Batch downloading • Choose correct downloading table in III • No need to copy authority records • No problem with mixed tags

  32. MIXED TAGS 150 0 Holy Cross 400 00 Jesus Christ|xCross 450 0 Cross 500 00 Jesus Christ|xCrucifixion 500 00 Jesus Christ|xRelics 550 0 Feast of the Cross Jesus Christ will be indexed as an author rather than a subject because it is a x00 field

  33. View with Innopac Tags • In database maintenance, type an asterisk (*) to see Innopac tags SUBJ AUTH Holy Cross NAME S FRM Jesus Christ Cross NAME SA FRM Jesus Christ Crucifixion NAME SA FRM Jesus Christ Relics SUBJ S FRM Cross SUBJ SA FRM Feast of the Cross

  34. To Correct Mixed Tag Record View record with MARC tags I> Insert a field (don’t use full screen edit) d> subj auth e> subj s frm (4xx) Jesus Christ|xCross f> subj sa frm (5xx) Jesus Christ|xCrucifixion a> name auth b> name s frm (4xx) c> name sa frm (5xx)

  35. To Correct Mixed Tag Record (con’t) • Select appropriate III tag • Re-key xref (use correct MARC tag, i.e. 400 not 450) • Delete original xref (it will display before the new field) • When saved, xref will be in proper index

  36. REPORTS ON HEADINGS F > Headings used for FIRST Time I > INVALID headings used D > DUPLICATE call numbers & other errors B > BLIND References R > Duplicate authority RECORDS U > Bibliographic UPDATES ** N > NEAR matches ** L > BUSY matches ** X > Non-Unique 4XXs ** Y > Cross-Thesaurus matches ** A > ALL reports C > CLEAR report file Q > QUIT Choose one (F,I,D,B,R,U,N,L,X,Y,A,C,Q)

  37. INVALID headings used • Checks incoming 1xx, 6xx & 7xx against 4xx headings in Authority file • Must be a direct match, headings with subdivisions are not reported • You must make the correction • Search OPAC, verify heading • Search OCLC, verify that the correct heading is still valid, is so, correct the heading

  38.
