  8. DDR: Duplicate Detection & Resolution • New DDR has been running small batches since middle of 2009. Began running in production at end of January 2010. • Two methods of attack: • Entire WorldCat database, starting with Record #1 • Daily journal files

  9. DDR: More details • All formats are included, not just books • Statistics: As of early May 2010 • Walking the Database: 21 million records examined • 1.25 million records merged • Daily Journal Files: 7.5 million record examined 250,000 records merged

  10. ISSN-L • ISSN-L enables collocation or linking among different media versions of a continuing resource • Field 022 subfields $l and $m implemented in 2009 • ISSN International Centre assigned a corresponding ISSN-L to all existing ISSNs and provided a listing • Resulting list processed against WorldCat to identify records where ISSN-L was missing • ISSN-L added in field 022 subfield $l by macro

  11. ISSN-L continued • About 1 million WorldCat records were changed in January through April • Changed CONSER records were redistributed • Over 8100 CONSER records deferred for later processing • List of records to be changed grew to 1.5 million shortly after starting the process • Additional records will be modified in a subsequent pass through the database later this year

  12. Provider Neutral e-Books • Conversion of provider-specific e-book records to provider-neutral is being accomplished via use of a macro • A set-by-set approach used to deal with specific fields that may be common to records within various sets • Initial pass through ebrary, Myilibrary, and NetLibrary completed, but a second pass is needed to deal various issues and problems with data and coding • Finding lots of hybrid records—print? or online? • Conversion of GoogleBooks likely to begin in May
