Hi,
We are on Horizon 7.3.4 and recently completed an import of
new authorities (subject, author, series…separately) and new bib records
after Backstage performed their magic on all the records. I have discovered
that we now have a tremendous amount of blind authorities and beginning the
process of deleting them when I discovered something. The new authorities
loaded from Backstage were imported with “multiple use” coding
instead of “single use” in the 008 field. From what I can tell quite
a lot of the new authorities with the “multiple use” coding did not
overlay the single use coding we started with. This means that if I delete all
the blind authorities I will delete a lot of the new records from Backstage.
If anyone has had experience with this or has any
suggestions, I would be grateful. I do have a call into SirsiDynix as well.
Just thought I would cover all my bases!
Thanks,
Rendi Hodge
