Notes

  • Goal: Fold Brian’s curated lists into Alma and Library Search

  • Brian’s process

    • from an RSS feed from local database, applying genres in Excel manually

    • Not satisfied with granularity of documentaries in particular

    • Should we maintain a local extension to IMDB terms list?

  • Ideas from Leanne and Holly:

    • add 655 with $2 tulmedialang and tulmediagenre

    • go with the $2local 655 $a[general genre] $x[language] but use $2 tulmedialang instead of local

      • ask Carla if we still do this - not consistent since migration

    • add 655 $2 code above with Brian's terms list

    • release date ideas

      • possibility to use 730 $f for year only with $5 institution code?

        • $f isn’t repeatable

        • We don’t want to have to control 730$a to connect titles to release year

      • what about omnibus or DVD collections? how to connect year with title

      • Taking Brian’s list and creating 730 $a title from list $f year or year range $5 PPT

    • Should we chat with Kelley at Oregon?

  • Ongoing processing

    • Can we import CSV data and merge with marc records in Alma now?

    • Brian will send us a file every month-ish and we’ll crosswalk it and merge with Alma

  • Action items

    • Settle on terms list

      • IMDB + local extension

      • Something else? (What does Peabody use? UCLA?)

    • Leanne will create a crosswalk from Brian’s database to MARC

    • Leanne and Carla will decide the specifics of the workflow and merging
