If you haven't already, Configure institution settings for knowledge base collections.
Use the MARC Records setting to enable record delivery. Note that collection-level record delivery settings will remain disabled. You will need to enable record delivery within your collections before records will be delivered.
To enable record delivery in the institution settings:
Once you enable record delivery, tabs of settings to customize your records will appear. The settings in these tabs apply across all collections and records you output from Collection Manager. To customize your records, complete the settings in each tab relevant for your collection types: Customize Records, WorldCat Updates, Record Delivery, Cataloging Partner Options.
Leave the field blank or to enter a four-character code. Use any holding library code that you want mapped to the 049$a of all of your records.
To delete fields from your records:
To delete subfields from your records:
Use the Add fields area of the Customize Records tab to map data elements to your records. Map all data elements you need in records from any of your collections in this single profile area. Record customizations apply across all records you receive from Collection Manager. See the default values in records from Collection Manager.
To add fields:
Knowledge Base Collection 856 Field settings apply to knowledge base collections.
WorldCat records include 856 fields and various URLs that are not accessible to your institution. For records from knowledge base collections, Collection Manger removes the URLs from WorldCat records and adds your library-specific links.
Titles are often available through more than one provider. If you have a title in multiple knowledge base collections, Collection Manager will deliver a single record for the knowledge base title and the record will have multiple URLs. By default, your library will receive updated records when titles are available through new providers and the relevant URLs will be added in those records. Likewise, your library will receive updated records when providers no longer offer titles and the relevant URLs will be removed in those records.
To see an examples of the 856 field in a records, see 856 field processing in records.
If your ILS requires a separate MARC record with a single URL for every instance of an electronic title, you can select collection-level settings to have the records for a collection delivered in a separate file and select a setting to isolate the file output from other collection activity. For more information, see the knowledge base collection-level Delivery File Output settings.
By default, the Collection Manager interface will show subfield u and value KB URL. Thus, by default, records for knowledge base titles will have your library's URL in the 856$u. Edit the default settings if desired.
To add a subfield and a value (such as "Enter Free Form Text" or "Collection Custom Text") to 856 fields:
After your records are output, you will see the subfield and text in records from knowledge base collections:

Does not apply: WorldCat 856 Field settings apply to query collections, cataloging partner collections, and WorldCat updates.
You have the option to have Local Holdings Records (LHRs) interleaved with your records and/or to have Local Bibliographic Data (LBD) embedded in or interleaved with your records.
Caution: When including local holdings records (LHRs) to records, you must select MARC 21 with MARC-8, MARC-21 with UTF-8 Unicode, or MARCXML with UTF-8 Unicode in the Record Delivery tab.

Update Option
Use the settings in Institution Settings > MARC Records > WorldCat Updates to configure whether or not you receive updated records based on changes to the record in WorldCat. By default, records will not be output when the WorldCat record is enhanced.
For information about merged records, please see About WorldCat Updates.
Update option | Description |
---|---|
None (Default) |
For collections that can output records on an on-going basis, you will receive updated records for OCLC number merges, when there are URL changes, and when an essential change to knowledge base data is made. |
Knowledge base and query collections |
In addition to the above, you will receive updated records when WorldCat records are enhanced for titles in your knowledge base and in ongoing query collections. |
Knowledge base, query and data sync collections and WorldCat holdings |
In addition to the above, you will receive updated records when WorldCat records are enhanced for your holdings in WorldCat (i.e., holdings you set via Collection Manager or via another service). If you select this Update Option, a field will appear to enter your library's OCLC symbol. If you enter multiple OCLC symbols, you will receive one set of records. Note: You have the option in Institution Settings > MARC Records > Record Delivery to have updated records for your holdings in WorldCat output in a separate file. |
Update Conditions
The following setting will be visible if you select an option to receive WorldCat Updates. Use the setting to select what types of changes should trigger an updated record.
Including conditions define the changes to the WorldCat record that will trigger output of an updated record. Default settings are shown below. Change the default criteria if desired.
Receive updates when $1 is modified
If enabled and the $1 data is changed in a profiled field in the Field Changes in WorldCat Record section, the record is output. Refer to Control Subfields, $1 Real World Object URI for additional information on this field.
Field Changes in WorldCat Record
Enter the tags and indicators for which you will receive an updated record when they are added, updated or deleted in the WorldCat record.
Add additional criteria, edit or delete the default values. Default values:
Encoding Levels Changes
By default, all of the levels are selected. Choose specific encoding levels to have update records delivered when an encoding level changes to those values:
Other Changes
By default, neither option is selected. Choose to trigger an update if the:
Excluding conditions define criteria to reduce the number of updated records received. All are disabled by default.
Exclude Material Types
By default, none are selected. Select specific material types to exclude them from your update records:
Exclude Electronic Resources
By default, none are selected. Select electronic resources to exclude from your update records.
Online | o = Online. The resource is accessed by means of hardware and software connections to a communications network. |
Direct electronic | q = Direct electronic. Storage is on a directly accessible tangible recording medium, e.g. disc, tape, Playaway device, flashdrive, portable hard drive, etc. Do not use code q for items that do not require the use of a computer (e.g., music compact discs and videodiscs). |
Electronic | s = Electronic. Item is intended for manipulation by a computer. The item may reside in a carrier accessed either directly or remotely. The item may also require the use of peripheral devices attached to the computer (e.g., a CD-ROM player). Do not use code s for items that do not require the use of a computer (e.g., music compact discs and videodiscs). Codes o and q are preferred to separately identify online and direct electronic resources. Whenever possible OCLC will convert instances of code s to either code o or q. |
Exclude Publication Date
By default, no date is entered. Choose to not receive updates for older materials. For example, if you do not want updated records for materials that are 20 years old or older, you could specify:
Exclude Records Upgraded by my Library
By default, nothing is selected. To exclude from your update records any records that were upgraded by your library, select your library symbol(s).
Collection Manager uses information your institution's WorldCat Registry profile. You can quickly review your institution's information by visiting the WorldCat Registry website.
To edit your information in the WorldCat Registry:
Format
If desired, change the default record format. Available formats:
Note: You must select MARC 21 with MARC-8, MARC 21 with UTF-8 Unicode, or MARCXML with UTF-8 Unicode, if you choose to add LHRs to your records.
If you specify record customizations in the Customize Records tab, you must enter MARC 21 fields. For more information about record formats, see MARC 21, Dublin Core, and MARC XML and MODS.
Delivery Frequency
Delivery Frequency settings apply to collections with ongoing delivery. In collections that output records on an ongoing basis such as knowledge base collections and ongoing query collections, the frequency can be overridden at the collection level.
For collections that output records on an ongoing basis, change the "Daily" default delivery frequency if desired. Available frequencies:
Daily files will not be output immediately. You will receive an emailed report around the time when your file is ready if you completed the settings in Institution Settings > Reports. See Record output and timing.
File Output
Select separate file delivery for all of your serials and/or for all WorldCat update records based on your holdings in WorldCat (if you enabled the settings in the WorldCat Updates tab).
Select from the file output options:
You will be able to distinguish files from different types of collections by their file names. See Files of records and file names.
Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs)
Links in records make resources more integrated with the Web and more discoverable for end users. If you select URI settings, linked data URIs will be embedded in your MARC records for 1XX, 6XX, 7XX and 8XX fields and will be included in the $0 subfield. $0 is a valid field for linked data URIs even if your ILS currently does not use the linked data information.
If you would like to download records with linked data URIs, select the identity service(s) from which you would like to retain links. If you select more than one identity service, multiple $0s will be appended to the appropriate tags with the appropriate URIs. The order of $0s will follow the order listed in the interface.
By default, none are selected:
Name Headings Identity Services
Subject Headings Identity Services
