Hi Rose,
We set up our match set for loading order records to match on tag 020 or 024, or (028 a and 028 b) or 035, or tag 001. That last one was set up as a record attribute since 001 doesn't have a subfield like the other tags. Baker & Taylor uses tag 001 for their control numbers (BK#####), so it's a good way to keep from adding duplicate B&T records. When the libraries load their records, they select "Match only merge" so they don't accidentally match and replace a fuller record with the vendor record. They check the boxes "Import Non-Matchng Records" and "Merge on Best Match."

I've run some reports and on the titles that I know created duplicates - it looks like there were two copies of that book coming in - not sure if this has anything to do with it or not. I was just wondering if someone had this problem and knew what settings Evergreen likes better for B & T records (if it does need tweaking). Thanks. Rose M.
