Chapter 24 Working with copies
Each item in the libraryĊbook or otherwiseĊneeds a place to store its unique
information, such as the copy barcode and call number. The Copy Editor
provides you with an easy way to enter and maintain copy information. This
chapter provides instructions for adding, editing, and deleting individual copies.
Note:
If you need to modify the same information in several copies, you may
want to use Cataloging's other copy update options, which are described
in Chapter 27, Maintaining your collection."
Adding and editing copies
Whether you're adding the first copy to a new bibliographic record, adding
additional copies to an existing record, or modifying a copy's information, you
start by displaying the bibliographic record for the item in the MARC View
window.
If you just saved a new bibliographic record, you're already there; otherwise, you
must locate the record (see Finding MARC records..." on page 240). From the
MARC View window, you can add, edit, or delete copy information:
To add a new copy from scratch
or by replicating the highlighted
copy, click Add Copy.
To delete the highlighted copy,
click Delete. For more information
see page 288.
To make changes to a copy,
highlight it and click Edit Copy.
To ensure that you have the
right copy, check the call
number and barcode.
For Union Catalog Plus, the Copy
Information window contains a
Member column and omits the
Copy Status column. For more
information see page 250.
Note:
You can't add copies to a temporary title. You can only edit the existing
copy. (See Permanent or temporary?" on page 234.)
