Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question about a small library without a catalog to migrate

[Jim Taylor]

I normally do more behind-the-scenes stuff so may display a bit (or a lot)
of ignorance here but.

 

Making sure you have set data rules up-front is a given of course but then.

 

If there is someone who can do a bit of scripting . I am reasonably certain
you can do item creation (including barcode?) on import of bib records.I
tend to be lazy so I would write a script that takes the scanned ISBN off of
a book (or type if not) and retrieves the MARC and retrieves the
Classification info,  gives you the option to pick the correct record and
adjust the classification info, if needed, and creates the needed tags and
subfields from provided defaults for the item record, including the barcode.
You can then have everything done in a few short steps and apply the barcode
at the same time with a minimal amount of typing and book handling.

 

Again, may be missing something obvious but maybe this will help.

 

Jim

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question about a small library without a catalog to migrate

[Elaine Hardy]

I want to echo Janet on not barcoding first and cleaning up inconsistent
call numbers or shelving locations as you go. You would only barcode first
if you had smart barcodes. A book left on the shelves with no barcode is a
good visual cue that it may not be in the bib database.

Also consider reassigning call numbers if you have areas that follow
outdated practice (for example, Dewey libraries used to class all books
about Native Americans in 970.1-970.6).  Develop local practices on
assigning call numbers and cutters and write them up!

Keep in mind that even correcting inconsistent call numbers may mean that
the books won't go back on the shelf in the order they came off, so plan
how you will handle books that are out of the range you are working on.

As Deborah said, keeping the library invisible and nonholdable until
everything is cataloged is best. Even then, make sure you have clear
guidelines on how to handle the inevitable uncataloged item that makes it
to the circ desk.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question about a small library without a catalog to migrate

[Janet Schrader]

Hi Rose,

I've worked with several libraries that added collections manually.

Weeding is an excellent first step. Then deciding on locations. I recommend
the fewer the better and use call numbers to designate where in the
location items are.

Do *not* barcode first. Barcode as the items are entered into the system.
If you barcode first you won't know what's in or not (know this from
experience). Also be sure not to confuse patron barcodes with item ones.

Buy a scanner(s) that will read the ISBNs or UPC codes on the items and the
barcodes you're using.

Make sure the item templates are correct and everyone adding items uses the
same ones. Create a set and export/import if there's more than one login.

I think the easiest thing to start with is adult fiction. These titles are
usually very straight forward. Then adult nonfiction, juvenile fiction and
nonfiction, picture books, audiobooks, paperbacks, DVDs, and music CDs. I
think that's the order of complexity for identifying matching bib records.

Get a sheet or sheets of bright construction paper and use it to stick
between the last item entered and the next. That way if more than one
person works on the collection each knows where to continue.

If you have to use volunteers, use ones you can trust to follow the rules,
no deviations in how to enter call numbers, consistent schedule for
working.

If call number patterns are not consistent, now's a great time to make sure
they are. I'm working with a library now that had 6 different patterns for
audiobook and 5 different ones for picture book.

You can run a report and open it in Excel to sort by barcodes, helps to
find incorrect ones that are too long or too short or are ISBNs (it
happens).

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question about a small library without a catalog to migrate

So they brought each book in as if they were cataloging a stack of new books.  
That was my other question – if you have volunteers, do you go ahead and do 
batch barcoding or do it one by one as you are cataloging?

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Question about a small library without a catalog to migrate

[Tim Spindler]

We have brought a number of small libraries like this into C/W MARS.  We
require the libraries to have 80% of their collection in the system and
their patrons entered before they can circulate on the ILS.  Part of the
reason for requiring the collection to be in the system is we have found
that patrons can get very frustrated if they find a lot of items are not in
the system.  The libraries we are bringing on board generally do a patron
registration drive also to get them into the system.

[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Food for Fines - Goods payment report

[Dana Schwarz]

Hi everyone,

My library will be having a "Food for Fines" event in October and we thought on 
the "Bills" page of a patron's account that we would select "Goods" as payment 
type for fines. The thing is, my library board would like to know the total 
cost of fines that we accepted as "Goods".

Have any of you created a report like this? If so, I would really appreciate 
your assistance in developing it.

Much appreciated,

Hello Bug Squashers,

I finally have power restored, but still no internet either at home or in
the office. I'm doing my best to catch up today via a spotty mobile hotspot
connection and will let you know when I am able to get the bug squashing
week chart updated.

Thanks for your patience!
