Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authority Control Questions-Maybe a Solution?
In our previous ILS we sent newly added bibs and edited bibs out for authority control on a monthly basis. We are now using Backstage and had them start with all bibs added between 11/1/2012 and 12/31/2014. We are now sending new bibs quarterly. I would also like to include edited/overlayed bibs with the quarterly file so I’m interested in how to find/include these. I believe our quarterly processing cost is flat rate based on an average number of records so we could send records with any edits.

Hi Tony, I've never done this but as I hope SCLENDS moves to authorities in the not too distant future I'm interested in this topic a lot. If I remember correctly when a MARC record gets updated the old metabib.real_full_rec entries get deleted and new ones are entered. I would be tempted to create a conditional auditor trigger that only write entries for the headings fields so that it's not a huge auditor table. I've not done that but some quick googling showed up examples of it. It would be a fun experiment if nothing else. Then it would be easy to write a sql report to get distinct records from those whose inserted IDs (current metabib) are different from the audited ones and then export just those records.

We have had our entire DB cleaned up and are getting ready to start the quarterly updates. In this, we will be sending them new bibs that have been added to the system for headings cleanup. However, we are also considering sending edited bibs as well. This would be bib records that were authorized and cleaned up, but have since been overlaid or updated. The biggest issue we are having is how to do this. While the edit date in the bib is a starting point, we really only want to send bibs whose headings have changed, not other values in the record. The question is: How? We’ve looked at the auditing tables as a starting point, but am thinking there might be a better solution: - Initial thoughts: 1.Using PGAdmin, we can extract a list of TCN’s that have been modified (edited) since our last full DB dump. 2. Using this list, extract bibs in MARC format from

Hi, all! Hat tip to Dan Wells for pointing out a typo/thinko in my timeline for the 2.9 release. I have the date for the release candidate as August 2. That should be September 2.
