Training procedure for monograph copy cataloging in Folio

Monograph Copy Cataloging

Copy cataloging of monographs on Folio requires attention to detail and accuracy. Patrons who use our online catalog need to be able to find the items they want; DRDS/Cataloging Department staff are responsible for enabling them to find their items.


After training with this manual the assistant should be able to:

 

  • Check a book against the Folio record and confirm it is the correct record.
  • Know MARC tagging for basic parts of the bibliographic record
  • Be able to do basic editing to the bibliographic record
  • Construct a call number for the item
  • Add the call number and holdings to the holding record
  • Make notations in the item records as needed
