Good morning New Zealand cataloguers, I have been passed this report from the most recent DDC Editorial Policy Committee* meeting, which was held on the 12th-13th June 2017, and asked to share with the New Zealand community. It’s an interesting insight into the process of how the standards we use in our daily work are shaped. The report was prepared by the Australian Committee on Cataloguing (ACOC) representative on the EPC, Melissa Parent.

Question for those using Alma / OCLC DataSync function
by Tamsyn Bayliss 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

Forwarded on behalf of David Church Hello everyone, I am wanting to find out what workflow process you use when cataloguing items from scratch. Do you originally catalogue an item: A- First in your institutional catalogue and then have that new record transferred to WorldCat via DataSync (daily batch mode) OR B - First in WorldCat with Record Manager and then transfer (either item by item or a bulk process) to your institutional catalogue? Our current workflow is A but I am interested in your experience with either. We started with DataSync on 13 October 2016 and transfer of records was completely successful until 23 February 2017. Since then we have had a success rate of 70%. Plus 50 records added to our institutional catalogue before the implementation of DataSync are not yet transferred. So how has your own institution's experience been with either workflow - where have you been happy with it and where do you think it could be improved? If you are using Workflow A - would you consider switching? Any replies please send direct to me at: dchurch(a)unitec.ac.nz<mailto:dchurch@unitec.ac.nz> Many thanks, David David Church Resources Specialist (Metadata) and Research Bank Administrator Tari Whakararangi Matatiki Unitec Institute of Technology Library 139 Carrington Rd Mt Albert 1025 Auckland New Zealand New Zealand Private Bag 92025 email: dchurch(a)unitec.ac.nz<mailto:dchurch@unitec.ac.nz> Ko te tangata e rapu ana i te maunga, te tangata e tu ana ki runga.
