[DCRM-L] Comments sought on revisions to OCLC document: Merging duplicate score records

[Ryan Hildebrand]

Colleagues,

The RBMS Bibliographic Standards Member Merge task group seeks input on its draft revision of the OCLC document Merging duplicate score records: A field-by-field comparison, which incorporates new guidance for rare scores. This document draws largely on the previously approved revisions of OCLC's Merging duplicate books records, and Merging duplicate continuing resource records. Please make any comments in the Google doc by 3/24.

The draft is available for comment here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tJWHwfTUoOY202IAZb_RbcxDg9KmHnIE5CFIglpOpGY/edit#heading=h.2vegs37s3ydk

The current guidelines are available online: https://help.oclc.org/WorldCat/Metadata_Quality/Member_Merge/Merging_duplicate_score_records_A_field_by_field_comparison

Although we are not revising OCLC's Record merge field transfer and merge matrix, it may provide useful context: https://help.oclc.org/WorldCat/Metadata_Quality/Member_Merge/Record_merge_field_transfer_and_merge_matrix<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https*3A*2F*2Furldefense.com*2Fv3*2F__https*3A*2Fnam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com*2F*3Furl*3Dhttps*3A*2F*2Fhelp.oclc.org*2FWorldCat*2FMetadata_Quality*2FMember_Merge*2FRecord_merge_field_transfer_and_merge_matrix*26data*3D02*7C01*7Cfrancis.lapka*40yale.edu*7C288eeac662124dd2d26e08d71b5ae362*7Cdd8cbebb21394df8b4114e3e87abeb5c*7C0*7C0*7C637007949489133641*26sdata*3DJ1EsX7MDlK4*2F0VkztD0oG56JDZxbHQjjnBjIKw6zRMs*3D*26reserved*3D0__*3BJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSU!!C5qS4YX3!QA9D862dPbDsDhJGa_Qw4EffOTVcyB2moqrpEift0Ix5wdbbAKI3pNFWxRwhHTHI*24&data=02*7C01*7Cfrancis.lapka*40yale.edu*7C8bb4f1f3fdc24904f48408d7e0a9450a*7Cdd8cbebb21394df8b4114e3e87abeb5c*7C0*7C0*7C637224889926474870&sdata=HX8kYoKYTLWG4Fz2*2BhBl5KCH3rtgYODiaYkQs0vqKA8*3D&reserved=0__;JSUlJSUlJSUlJSoqKioqKiolJSoqKioqKioqJSUqKiUlJSUlJSUlJSUlJSUl!!Mih3wA!Vo3ejT5B2zrtRS0CMmh2IoCfiP4TN5dKLrB-kIF0eawMtlVc-tK5-7kviEGGX-Q$>.
