Why do I keep receiving a validation error related to the BLvl and the 773 field of our records?
Applies to
- Digital Collection Gateway
Answer
Digital Collection Gateway follows the OCLC standard for bibliographic formats relating to the BLvl of your records. If your BLvl=a, then a 773 field must be present in order for the Gateway to walk the records through to WorldCat.
If this is a new OAI feed you are working with, then the records will need to be updated within DCGs MARC View. Here you can have the system how the unmapped fields and map the correct data to the 773 field in order to pass validation.
