MARC updates (Holdings & Authorities)

  • FOLIO Cataloging Capabilities ppt
  • MARC authority app mockups ppt
    • Integrates with QuickMARC
  • Kiwi Release - MARC Holdings capabilities
    • Create via Data Import in Kiwi. With Lotus the MARC holdings record can be created directly from Inventory.
    • Edit in QuickMARC
    • View in Inventory, and locked if source == MARC
    • Relationship between FOLIO and MARC holdings are established
    • Field 001 and 004 are configurable with respect to the data from the Inventory HRID. Field value in the Holdings record > 004 is the HRID of the linked instance record
    • If holdings get moved to another instance record, the value in 004 is updated


  • Questions:
    • Will there be holdings properties we still can maintain in Inventory holdings (when there is an underlying MARC holdings); e.g. statistical codes, and suppress from discovery? → Yes, like with the Instance record.
    • Is the 999 ff $s the uuid for the MARC SRS bib or the MARC SRS holding? → It is the Holdings UUID. 
    • Will the access to MARC holdings related actions be governed by permissions? So libraries who do not use MARC holdings, will not see any action buttons, or other options - while this is not needed if they only use Inventory holdings (with no underlying MARC holdings) → Yes, the known permissions (view, edit, delete)
    • What is the planned connection between MARC authorities and Instance records? → Needs to be discussed, not in Scope for Lotus.
    • is there a list somewhere of which apps will use elastic search? → So far only Inventory and Authority Search. The RM group has done some UX mockups but has not decided yet to implement as far as MM knows
    • What about Modules that pop up that interact with Inventory? → Needs discussion, postponed
Deleting Instance records at MTSUwtf
  • Slides
  • A delete tag is added to instances that should be deleted by the catalogers
  • They use Bash scripts that are automated via a Cron job on a Linux server
  • Step 1: Retrieve instance records by tag, retrieve attached holdings_ids, retrieve attached item_ids
  • Step 2: Delete items, then holdings, then instances
  • SRS records can't be deleted. After a delete request the status changes from ACTUAL  to DELETED 
    • Note Ann-Marie: "I'll check with the SRS devs about the API documentation"
  • Is there a check in place that validates something like an item status == "checked out"?
    • Instance record is set to "suppressed" and then tagged
    • Just a few instances have items associated that could be potentially be checked out
  • Another issue could be if the instance record is linked from a POL in the Orders app
  • Comment from Jessica: "There is definitely a use case for wanting to keep an order/pol but delete the instance. Like if you withdraw something and don't want the bib cluttering up the database, but need to keep the order for accounting purposes."
  • uChicago has a similar workflow with Kuali OLE: They add a tag in a 9XX field ("delete"), and then run a report that checks on dependencies before the record is deleted in the database
  • Q from Sara: "Do we know if we delete and Item that was created by a Piece, will ONLY the item be deleted and NOT the Piece as well?" → A-M: "Hi Sara - I think it's worth testing. I don't think deleting the item will delete the piece. But the opposite may happen - orders does some cleanup in Inventory when orders/pieces are deleted"
  • From Jessica: "being able to report out (ie identify) the dependencies is really 90% of the battle"
  • From Laura: "agreed, Jessica -- and controlling how the tagging to be deleted happens accordingly. we are using a statistical code to mark records that potentially should be deleted, but not all have been vetted for potential dependencies."
  • Feature in Jira: UXPROD-1624 Deletion. Implement action menu in top navigation bar. Enable the user to delete a metadata record (Instance) - is P2. New approach: Set as Folio wide theme. Is also a topic in the App Interaction SIG.
  • Instead of hard delete in the database just hide records? There is a permission "staff suppressed" that matches the checkbox in the records.
  • Q from Lisa F: "So what if I made a mistake, (or we found the book that was lost for 20 years.): can I put them back or do I reimport?  Just curious..."

Future topic idea: Present on batch updates with Shell scripts. This could be a topic for the API lab
