<FONT FACE="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:10pt'>Some of you no doubt attended this OCLC webinar yesterday and have already received this message. For those who didn’t, Jay Weitz gave an overview of how the guidelines for when to input a new record intersect with OCLC’s latest de-duping algorithms. While much of the information was quite basic, he did touch on some issues particular to rare materials during the Q&A—including verifying that no records for pre-1800 imprints are ever de-duped.<BR>
<BR>
Lots of questions about supplying edition statements in various contexts, in response to which Jay repeatedly noted that RDA doesn’t allow catalogers to add ed. Statements in the 250 if they don’t appear on the piece. Putting them in a 5xx field won’t get picked up by the de-duping algorithms. Hmm.<BR>
