Don,

This is a subject that I have recently put many hours into. This begs the question: "How many bibs do we have that should be flagged as electronic but do not have the proper MARC flags in the leader/06 and 008/23?" We have been slowly developing methods of correcting the catalog. One example:

Bibs that contain 856 indicator2=0 but without the 008/23 correctly designated.

This query may help you identify those bibs

select id from biblio.record_entry where
id in (select record from metabib.real_full_rec where tag=$$856$$ and ind2=$$0$$) AND
marc ~ $$<leader>......[at]$$
and
marc !~ $$tag="008">.......................[oqs]$$
and
marc !~ $$tag="006">......[oqs]$$

This will result in a list of bib ID's that are not currently cataloged as Electronic but do contain an 856 with the "linking" indicators.

The mere presence of the 856 doesn't mean that the bib should be converted to Electronic but it's a good start. We added more logic to the decision making code but this query might get you started. Perhaps it can narrow your scope. We created an Evergreen conference proposal to go over our development.

Hi Elaine,

Kathy's information confirms my cataloging dilemma.

Changing Form to "s" actually changes a print record into an electronic record. Technically I should add a whole new bib record for the electronic version. (Lot o' work)

Creating a copy/item record would be less work, and as Jennifer points out you could then use the Circ Modifier as a filter. But that doesn't fit into the default search filter options.

There's always a problem when a cataloger gets "creative". I probably should go ahead and just find a legitimate bib record for the titles and be done.

Oh well ...

    Don,

    As others have said, the search filter is for the MARC fixed field
    Form (008/23). I don’t know if the 006/06 is also included in the
    filter or if it can be added.

    Are you adding an 856 to a record for another format rather than
    using a MARC record for the e-resource?

    *Subject:* [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Electronic title - search filter

    All,

    Simply adding an 856 tag to a MARC record does not make it
    possible to do a search for the described electronic resource
    using the Advanced Search Filter, "Item Form: Electronic". What
    hook can be added to the bib record so that the Search Filter can
    be used?

    Thanks,

    Don
