Overview

...

  • This field should not be used solely because material is on order, recently received or uncataloged.

Note about previous coding practices of audio visual materials

  • Previous practice mandated placement of the 007 for audio/visual materials in the holdings record.  When updating one of these legacy records, please remove the 007 from the holdings, since conflicts between the holdings and bibliographic 007 might cause a duplicate in OCLC. The 914 field would not be used in these cases.  

Other processes that exclude records from OCLC Bibliographic Data Sync

Records are also excluded from OCLC Bibliographic Data Sync in the following scenarios:   

  • Bib When the bibliographic record contains a 913 Data Sync rejection note 
  • Holdings are suppressed 
  • Bib brief level is 02 – information insufficient for Data SyncWhen the Alma Brief Record Level is 02, “Insufficient elements for reporting to OCLC”
  • When all holdings for a given bibliographic holdings are suppressed
