I would look at how the records needed to be loaded into my file. If I have separate authority files for name, subject and series, than I would want the files separated to make loading easier. f I have one file I would not separate the files.

Subject: [BSLWAC] segmenting authority files for Horizon

 

Hello,

We are just starting the authority cleanup process. We are a small health science college on Horizon 7.3.3. We have only 14,076 bibs and 57,735 authority records. I can’t figure out if we should request our authority files be returned segmented into name,subject, series and title. Can anyone help me with this?

Thank you.

Anna
