[DCRM-L] OCLC's Local Holdings Records

[Will Evans]

Please forgive my ignorance (again.)



I’m not sure what is under discussion here. Can someone point me to an
example of an LHR?



Thanks.



Will

We do not have IRs, and have been using notes in our Holdings for
copy-specific information for years.

Thanks, Nina – It is far from an ideal work-around. One has to go into the
Connexion browser to see them! They are used primarily for serials and ILL
functions. I believe we are inclining to use them instead of LBDs to load
local holdings information into OCLC. As you point out, in the end the most
effective way to look at local holdings will be to go to individual OPACs –
I pity the poor scholar …

I’ve never been able to figure out how to see other LHR’s. As far as I know
(although my colleagues can correct me), UCLA doesn’t use them, which is
perhaps the reason.



I know this isn’t addressing your question, but the bottom line is, if
others out there are in my boat, LHR’s might not be the answer. I tend to
visit library’s OPACs to see local info.

Hi, Everyone – In facing the demise of IRs in OCLC, is anyone out there
turning to Local Holdings Records as a way to address the issue of
including local holdings information such as provenance and bindings? These
records permit all MARC holdings fields and can be viewed by other
libraries. Harvard is trying to figure out if this alternative is
preferable to LBDs. Catalogers would still have to put AAPs for local
headings into the master record with subfield 5s. - Karen
