ATypicalWorkflowforEditingaGroupofRecordsinMarcEdit
1. Identifyandgatherrecordsthatneedtobeedited.
(SeePartIIbelow,“WaystoIdentify/GatherRecords.”)
2. Sincetherecordsyougetwillbe“raw”MARCrecords(.mrcfiles),
useMarcBreakerto“break”themintoaneditableform(.mrkfiles).
3. UsethevariouseditingtoolsinMarcEditortomakethedesiredchangestoyourrecords.
4. SavethefileinMarcEditor.
5. Convertthe“broken”recordsbackintoregularMARCrecords
(i.e.,convertfrom.mrkto.mrc)usingMarcMaker.
Steps6-8pertaintoI-Sharelibrariesonly
6. FileaWorkRequestOnline(WRO,pronouncedroe)requestingthatCARLIstaffreplace
theMARCrecordsinVoyagerwiththecorresponding(nowedited)recordsinthefile.
7. TransfertheeditedMARCrecordsfiletoCARLI’sFTPsitesothatCARLIstaffcanaccessit.
8. CARLIstaffwilluploadandreplacetherecords,andwillnotifyyouwhenthathas

II.WAYSTOIDENTIFY/GATHERRECORDS

ID).ExporttheresultsandopentheminExceltoexamineand/ormanipulatethelist.
(ForfurtherdetailsaboutusingAccess,viewCARLI’sAccesstrainingvideos.)
b. Ifnopre-existingquerylistedinAccessexactlydescribeswhatyouneed,filea
WROtoaskCARLIstafftowriteaqueryaccordingtoyourspecifications.
• UnderWorkRequestType,chooseAdHoc(Customized)Report.
• UnderNotes,describeyourdesiredrecordset.
Examples:
- Findbibrecordswhere100$d,600$d,or700$dcontains<ca.>
- Findbibrecordswhere130$aor630$ais<Koran>
CARLIstaffwillthenconstructacustom-madequeryforyouandnotifyyouwhen

toyourI-Sharelibrary’sFTPsiteasan.xls,.xlsx.,.xml,.txt,or.csvdocument.
Step2:FileaWROforCARLItoextracttherecords
TorequestafileofyourdesignatedrecordsfromCARLI,submitaWRO.
• UnderWorkRequestType,chooseOther.
• NotethatthewayCARLIextractsrecordsfromthecatalogdatabaseisviarecordIDs.
So,todesignatewhichrecordsyouwant,copytherecordIDsintoa.txtdocument
(Notepad)anduploadittoyourlibrary’sI-ShareFTPsite.
