<div>Interestingly, when we asked about permissible duplicates (one DCRM, one
AACR2) OCLC said they did NOT want duplicate records. Instead they wanted to
merge records with the DCRM record surviving as the master record. So, why
exempt pre-1800 books from the de-duping? Why not work the algorithm to favor
DCRM? <br><br>Thanks, Annie<br><br>On Tue, Nov 2, 2010 08:00 PM, <b>"Erin

up on Jackie’s message about the OCLC webinar, note
that it was specifically pre-1800 books that Jay said were exempt from OCLC’s
de-duping algorithms, not pre-1800 imprints. For cartographic materials, Jay
said the cut-off date was 1900. He didn’t mention a date for published
graphic
materials. Does anyone know what the cut-off date there is?<p></p></span></p>
