[DCRM-L] Where do you save your files

[Ann Myers]

I generally save my records in progress in the online save file so that
my supervisor can also access them and check them when I'm done before
they are actually put into the system. However, records in the online
save file expire after 28 days (though you can resave them), whereas
records in the local save file never expire. If I'm working on a record
that's taking me longer to finish, I save it in the local file so I
don't have to worry about losing it until I'm ready to share it with my
supervisor. Then I resave it to the online file so she can see it.

Subject: [DCRM-L] Where do you save your files

 

Another question we've been discussing: where do you save your files on
records in progress in OCLC? In the online save file, or in a local save
file? For either one, what are the reasons?

Thanks much,

Deborah
