Connexion client 2: Bibliographic searching 1:39 pm - 3:08 pm Tuesday, February 18, 2025 | (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) WEBVTT 1 Crystal Rodriguez 00:22:08.520 --> 00:22:26.040 Okay, so welcome to today's session on connection client bibly graphics searching. This class provides instructions on how to use connection client to perform searches for bibiographic records in the world cat database, and. 2 Crystal Rodriguez 00:22:27.320 --> 00:22:46.360 I will be using connection three point one last class I set I misspoke and said three point two, but it is three point one currently. And as you can see here, my name is Crystal Rodriguez and I am with our member education team, and I am joined by a colleague Mallory who maybe helping with some chat questions if they come through. 3 Crystal Rodriguez 00:22:47.840 --> 00:22:49.040 And let's see. 4 Crystal Rodriguez 00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:59.800 So after this class, you should be able to describe and navigate search results lists, determine the best search to use. 5 Crystal Rodriguez 00:23:01.280 --> 00:23:04.760 Determine whether a given record is a match to your item. 6 Crystal Rodriguez 00:23:07.080 --> 00:23:12.440 Use numeric and keywords searches, limit your searches with qualifiers. 7 Crystal Rodriguez 00:23:14.080 --> 00:23:34.360 And perform phrase searches, and then lastly, you'll be able to use the searching worldcat indexes documentation to help construct complex searches in connection client. And Mallory is going to add into the chat the link to the learner guide for this class. This is. 8 Crystal Rodriguez 00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:54.440 Living document that we will continually update as new have questions or information arise. And I may refer to it throughout the session. A couple of things to keep in mind about this document is it's meant as an accompany company meant to this class, so it'll review a lot of what we've talked about, and. 9 Crystal Rodriguez 00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:59.600 There are some practice exercises at the end of the document as well. 10 Crystal Rodriguez 00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:26.320 So in connection client, you can search Worldcat online or interactively or offline in batch mode. You can perform interactive searches while online and search results display immediately. Or you can perform batch searches offline and view your search. 11 Crystal Rodriguez 00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:46.640 Results from a local same file. Today we will demonstrate searching online, but many of the techniques we demonstrate are applicable to offline batch searching. We will cover the mechanics for offline batch searching in our save files and batch processing class. That's our fourth class. 12 Crystal Rodriguez 00:24:46.840 --> 00:24:47.440 In the series. 13 Crystal Rodriguez 00:24:52.800 --> 00:25:01.480 Connection client has three areas for entering searches. The first is the quick search toolbar. If you have that activated. 14 Crystal Rodriguez 00:25:03.520 --> 00:25:09.600 And then there's also the command line search and the keyword numeric search areas. 15 Crystal Rodriguez 00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:31.160 The quick search in command line search are separate areas for entering searches, but function in the same way. Users must generate the entire search, the indexes search terms limiters, etc. In a search box. This can be good for simple searches like numeric searches or for. 16 Crystal Rodriguez 00:25:31.680 --> 00:25:48.240 Experienced searchers. The keyword numeric search area contains text boxes and boolean operators to guide users in constructing search queries. This is good for beginner searching, searchers or complex searches. 17 Crystal Rodriguez 00:25:53.200 --> 00:26:09.360 There are also multiple ways within Connection Client to open the search worldcat dialogue box. Users can choose to press the F two key on the keyboard or you can click the menu options or the toolbar icon. 18 Crystal Rodriguez 00:26:14.560 --> 00:26:21.680 In connection client, the system defaults displays your search results based on the number of records retrieved. 19 Crystal Rodriguez 00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:40.080 So group list, as you see here, are displayed when you're search returns between a hundred and one to fifteen hundred records. Each group is sorted by format and date. You can then select a group to view a list of records within that group. 20 Crystal Rodriguez 00:26:43.360 --> 00:26:54.200 A truncated list displays when the search retrieves between six to one hundred records from the list, you would select to open and view a full record. 21 Crystal Rodriguez 00:26:56.840 --> 00:27:08.880 And then you would see a brief list when the search retrieves between two to five records. This is similar to the truncated list in that you would select to open and view a full record. 22 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:10.840 --> 00:27:16.280 And then lastly, a full record is going to display when your search retrieves just that single record. 23 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:21.040 --> 00:27:27.160 And this is also what you would see when you click on a single record from the truncated list or the brief list. 24 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:32.560 And we'll see some more of this as we proceed on with the class. 25 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:35.520 Okay. 26 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:48.880 So when you're searching WorldCat database, consider the following. What information is available to you? Do you have the item in hand. 27 Crystal Rodriguez 00:27:50.560 --> 00:28:10.320 Or are you ordering the item for your library? Does the item have a number such as an ISPN, an ISSN, et cetera? If there isn't a number, what else can you search by? How easy is it to determine the author, title, publisher, et cetera? 28 Crystal Rodriguez 00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:17.040 So for example, is this a book with a title page which would be relatively easy to find that information. 29 Crystal Rodriguez 00:28:18.800 --> 00:28:27.720 Or is it maybe an eighteenth century book that might not be as easy to locate? And then almost always, you want to try a number search first. 30 Crystal Rodriguez 00:28:33.520 --> 00:28:52.520 That's. When searching for items in Worldcat via connection client, especially for the purposes of copy cataloging, it is best to match items to the following fields in the mark record that represent them. So here we see the two forty five or the title statement, the two fifty addition. 31 Crystal Rodriguez 00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:57.480 Statement, the two sixty or two sixty four, which is the publication statement. 32 Crystal Rodriguez 00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:14.840 Your three hundred field or the physical description, and the O four O sub field B, which is that language of cataloging. Any significant difference in these fields between your item to be catalogued and the ability graphic record. 33 Crystal Rodriguez 00:29:16.240 --> 00:29:18.080 Means that the record is not a match. 34 Crystal Rodriguez 00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:29.080 For more information on determining if a record is a match, you can refer to the OCLC bibliographic formats and standards chapter four. 35 Crystal Rodriguez 00:29:31.080 --> 00:29:35.440 And this is linked in the learner guide that is in the chat. 36 Crystal Rodriguez 00:29:40.760 --> 00:29:41.040 That's. 37 Crystal Rodriguez 00:29:43.400 --> 00:30:03.280 So as I mentioned earlier, numeric searching is the easiest and most efficient type of searching in Worldcat. This is the one that is most likely to result in one or just a few records. The most common number searches include the ISPN or international standard book number. 38 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:24.000 And this is typically found on the back of title pages or back covers. The ISSN or international standard serial number, which is typically found on the back of Table of contents in magazines or journals or in the first section of a newspaper. And then there's also the OCLC. 39 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:34.640 Control number, sometimes referred to just as an OCLC number. This is an accession number assigned by the system when a record is added to worldcap. 40 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:38.840 --> 00:30:43.000 Okay, so I'm going to go ahead and move over to connection. 41 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:45.520 --> 00:30:53.240 And I'm going to log into connection. Also, in the beginning of the chat, there's information on how you can. 42 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:54.840 --> 00:30:56.400 You zoom in on. 43 Crystal Rodriguez 00:30:58.360 --> 00:31:10.160 Using your Webex in order to make connection a little larger as we know that the menu can be difficult to see, and unfortunately there's no, option within connection to enlarge that menu. 44 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:25.560 Alright, so I'm gonna start by signing in here. I'm gonna go to file, log on, and as we discussed in our previous class, my authorization numbers are already set up, so it just shows there for me. So I'm gonna go ahead and click ok. 45 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:31.560 --> 00:31:34.280 Alright, let me close that announcement. 46 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:37.120 --> 00:31:44.120 First I'm going to demonstrate using the toolbar icon to open the search dialogue here. So this is the icon. 47 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:46.360 --> 00:31:53.400 That looks like a little magnifying glass with the world cat symbol. And if you hover over that, you'll see the command that that icon. 48 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:55.400 Follows. 49 Crystal Rodriguez 00:31:57.720 --> 00:32:04.440 And once I click that, then I get the search dialogue box with my command line search options and my keyword numeric search option. 50 Crystal Rodriguez 00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:20.800 And so I just want to demonstrate where each of those are here, and then also you see at the top of my screen I have the quick search toolbar option and the icon is also right next to there as well. 51 Crystal Rodriguez 00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:25.560 I'm gonna go ahead and open that again. 52 Crystal Rodriguez 00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:52.280 So I'm first going to demonstrate searching for an ISBN. Now I want to point out that if the last character of an ISBN is an X, it is a checked digit and that should also be included in your search. That is not case sensitive though. So I'm just going to enter that. 53 Crystal Rodriguez 00:32:52.600 --> 00:32:54.280 Basic search in the command line. 54 Crystal Rodriguez 00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:11.600 And for the ISPN I don't need to enter any indexes, I can just enter the ISBN number there, and I can either click enter or OK, and here we see our results. 55 Crystal Rodriguez 00:33:14.520 --> 00:33:24.200 Now we see that this is a brief list because actually I apologize, it is a truncated list that was returned, because we do have more than six records here. 56 Crystal Rodriguez 00:33:26.480 --> 00:33:42.520 Now let's go ahead and open up one of these records. I'm gonna choose the fifth record here, and to open that I just double click, and here we see the ISBN O two O field, and we see this first ISPN is the one that we searched by. 57 Crystal Rodriguez 00:33:46.560 --> 00:33:52.600 And then we, once we have our record open open, we can also take a look at some of that matching criteria. 58 Crystal Rodriguez 00:33:56.080 --> 00:34:05.880 To, we want to confirm that this is our, does match our item. So here we see the two forty five field. So does that title match and the. 59 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:07.520 --> 00:34:15.520 Responsibility? Does the publisher match our item, so is does the year match, for example, in the two sixty four here. 60 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:23.280 Is there an addition statement and if there is, does it match our item, that would be in the two fifty field here. 61 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:35.720 And then does the pagination match our item as well? So those are those primary areas we're gonna look at to determine if this is in fact a match. Now I'm going to go ahead and close this record. 62 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:37.600 --> 00:34:39.320 And I'm going to close the truncated list. 63 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:53.120 And next I'm going to search by an ISSN. So I'm going to use the F two key this time to open up that box there, and I want to clear my previous search. 64 Crystal Rodriguez 00:34:56.200 --> 00:35:08.240 Now, when you're searching by the ISSN, you want to always include the hyphen, and again, if there is an X as the last character, it is a check digit and it needs to be included. 65 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:12.640 --> 00:35:25.560 Now when searching for ISSN in the command line search, I do need to enter an index of I N colon for, for ISSN, and then I'm going to enter in my. 66 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:26.840 --> 00:35:27.240 My search here. 67 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:30.080 --> 00:35:31.160 And I'm just gonna hit enter. 68 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:38.160 Now here I get a group list, and I'm going to click on the first group of books here. 69 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:39.680 --> 00:35:44.880 To open up the full list, and I'm just gonna choose one here I'm gonna click on number sixteen. 70 Crystal Rodriguez 00:35:47.920 --> 00:35:57.520 And we see the O two two two field has that ISSSN. Now we do see it's in a sub field L, but it's still searchable here. 71 Crystal Rodriguez 00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:09.680 So usually that ISSN is going to be in a sub field A, but if it's in a sub field L or Z, it is also searchable. 72 Crystal Rodriguez 00:36:13.840 --> 00:36:31.320 And then the last of the numeric searches is the OCLC number search. Now this is a unique number, so it's going to be the most precise search. If it's known, you always use, want to use the OCLC number to search worldcad. It's gonna be that easiest and most precise. 73 Crystal Rodriguez 00:36:33.360 --> 00:36:43.680 This is also a very efficient search to use to find Worldcat numbers if you need to delete your holdings. So for this one I'm just going to use the quick search bar here. 74 Crystal Rodriguez 00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:54.320 Oh I see that there is a question. Let me see. Bear with me just one moment. Sometimes when I've am physically holding a book, Worldcat has the wrong paged count. 75 Crystal Rodriguez 00:36:56.320 --> 00:37:04.080 Okay, so that is sometimes that does happen. It maybe that someone had a different edition or that maybe that item was. 76 Crystal Rodriguez 00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:25.720 Catalogued using pre publication data. There's multiple reasons. So when you see that, if you're pretty confident that it is your item, you can reach out to our QC team at ask QC at OCLC dot org and they can get that corrected if you're unable to correct it yourself. 77 Crystal Rodriguez 00:37:26.640 --> 00:37:46.280 Our next class will talk about how you can make corrections to records if you know that it needs to be corrected. So, and then that's also why you would refer to the billiographic standards and formats as well to determine if a new record is needed because there is some allowance for some discre. 78 Crystal Rodriguez 00:37:46.600 --> 00:37:51.320 In pagination. I forget exactly what that is, but it is explained in that documentation. 79 Crystal Rodriguez 00:37:53.720 --> 00:38:09.920 Alright, so I'm going to use the quick search toolbar for my OCLC search. When you're searching by OCLC number, you do need to either enter an asterisk, a pound sign or the index of N O colon. I'm gonna go ahead and just do an asterisk. 80 Crystal Rodriguez 00:38:16.520 --> 00:38:21.520 And I'm just gonna enter that in here, I'm just gonna hit enter or I could have hit the icon there. 81 Crystal Rodriguez 00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:40.400 Alright, and we can see that the OCLC number is shown at the top of our screen. When you're exporting this record, the OCLC number would be found in the O O one or the O three five field in the your library's catalog as well. 82 Crystal Rodriguez 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:48.720 And here we see that we did just get that single record because that is an exact match to that OCLC number. 83 Crystal Rodriguez 00:38:51.080 --> 00:38:51.360 Alright. 84 Crystal Rodriguez 00:38:52.960 --> 00:39:06.440 I'm gonna go ahead and close there. I do see another question. I always use pound sign. Does it matter? No, you can use any of those. So you can use the asterisk, the pound sign or the Index. All of those will search in the same way. 85 Crystal Rodriguez 00:39:08.240 --> 00:39:11.720 Alright, I'm going to go ahead and click back over to my PowerPoint for the next section. 86 Crystal Rodriguez 00:39:15.560 --> 00:39:20.600 So we just concluded talking about the number searches. Now we need to discuss keyword searches. 87 Crystal Rodriguez 00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:42.760 So keyword searches retrieve records that contain the words that you enter in any order and not necessarily adjacent in the, that are in the fields and sub fields that are searched by that specific index. Keyword searches can be done in the command line search or the quick search tool, where you will enter. 88 Crystal Rodriguez 00:39:42.920 --> 00:40:02.880 Just the keywords. You also can search those in the keyword numeric search area. There you will type the words that you want to search and you would select the index from the dropdown list, which will demonstrate shortly. But here you see some common frequently used keyword indexes. 89 Crystal Rodriguez 00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:23.720 So I'm just gonna kind of review these a little bit. The first is the name or author, and you see that that index is a U colon. And this refers to the author of the work, whether that be personal corporate or a conference, and this index searches a variety of author fields and sub field. 90 Crystal Rodriguez 00:40:24.520 --> 00:40:38.720 For example, your one hundred, one ten, one eleven. It's also going to search your two, four, five, five oh five seven hundred etc. So there's several that are gonna be searched by that, and we'll review that further in the session as well. 91 Crystal Rodriguez 00:40:41.120 --> 00:41:00.360 And the next that you see here is the corporate or conference name. This can be used for works for a corporate body or other collective offer, and this index searches both the one ten and seven ten fields. Next is the personal name or the, and that's PN colon, and this can be either. 92 Crystal Rodriguez 00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:10.160 An author or another named person such as the illustrator, editor etcetera. And this index searches both the one hundred and the seven hundred fields. 93 Crystal Rodriguez 00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:31.880 Then there's the series, which is the SE colon label, and that's going to search various series fields and sub fields like the four ninety, the eight hundred, eight ten, etc. And then we have the subject index or SU colon label. This. 94 Crystal Rodriguez 00:41:32.240 --> 00:41:52.280 This searches a variety of subject fields and subfields like the six hundred, six ten, six fifty, six fifty one, and others. And then lastly is the title or the TI colon and this searches for the work in a variety of title fields and sub fields like the one thirty, the two forty. 95 Crystal Rodriguez 00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:55.680 Two forty five, two forty six, et cetera. 96 Crystal Rodriguez 00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:01.160 So that's just a review of some of those commonly used indexes. 97 Crystal Rodriguez 00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:27.200 Now with the item in hand, we can search Worldcat to find a matching record. So looking at our book here read reader come home, we're gonna assume that the item does not have a number for us to search, so we need to search WorldCat using another way. So I'm gonna go over to connection. 98 Crystal Rodriguez 00:42:30.560 --> 00:42:32.880 And let me open up that search dialogue. 99 Crystal Rodriguez 00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:36.120 I'm gonna clear that previous search. 100 Crystal Rodriguez 00:42:39.560 --> 00:42:57.960 Now there are a couple of settings that we want to consider when we are searching Worldcat in connection client, the first we wanna look at is this routine search. This is very helpful when you're searching because you may need to add additional parts to the search, and I'm gonna. 101 Crystal Rodriguez 00:42:58.240 --> 00:42:59.880 Demonstrate that here in a few moments. 102 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:03.440 --> 00:43:12.720 This is also helpful in case you don't remember to clear out terms or the some of those limiters and qualifiers that you've retained, you want to use those. 103 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:14.760 --> 00:43:22.120 So it's also useful if maybe you didn't get the search that you expected because there's a typo and maybe you just need to correct that typo. 104 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:24.680 --> 00:43:32.480 And it's also useful if you get too many results because then you can refine that. So, like I said, I've got that checked here for my next search. 105 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:34.600 --> 00:43:48.600 Now, like any large database limiting and qualifying your search of Worldcat is oftentimes necessary to find the record that you're looking for. You can customize the indexes, limiters, and qualifiers that are available. 106 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:49.920 --> 00:43:55.600 In Connection Client to give you quick access to those items that you use most often. 107 Crystal Rodriguez 00:43:57.040 --> 00:44:17.240 So to do that, we're gonna look at the keyword numeric search area, and you'll see the icon that looks like it's got a bunch of lines with a pencil on it. So if I hover over that, that tells me that I can customize the list of, indexes. So right now with it the way it is, I just. 108 Crystal Rodriguez 00:44:17.400 --> 00:44:36.240 Have a short list, but if I click on that, then I can add in additional indexes that I would like on my short list. So maybe I don't necessarily want to use the publisher number. So first of all I can remove it. I can go ahead and click that and then remove. 109 Crystal Rodriguez 00:44:38.200 --> 00:44:46.120 I can click on modify to add additional items. So maybe I want to, let me try to think of one here. 110 Crystal Rodriguez 00:44:49.040 --> 00:44:49.680 I want to have. 111 Crystal Rodriguez 00:44:51.520 --> 00:45:11.560 Maybe I'm I know that I'm doing some, some work with LC children, so I want to add that children subject in my shortened list, so I'm gonna click the box there to do that and click ok. And now that shows in my list. And then at any point you can click on restore defaults to go back to the default list that connect. 112 Crystal Rodriguez 00:45:12.080 --> 00:45:15.640 Provides. But I'm going to go ahead and click ok and leave that there. 113 Crystal Rodriguez 00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:33.040 Now, right now we see the next to that list icon, there's a plus and it says show more indexes. So right now if I click on the dropdown I just see the short list, but if I click on that plus sign. 114 Crystal Rodriguez 00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:43.000 I can click on the dropdown and now I see all of the options that are available to me. So that's just one way that we can customize that. 115 Crystal Rodriguez 00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:48.080 Alright. 116 Crystal Rodriguez 00:45:50.920 --> 00:46:04.080 So with that done, I'm gonna go ahead and perform a search here. I want to use the keyword numeric search area. So first I'm going to enter in the term for my book reader come home. 117 Crystal Rodriguez 00:46:06.880 --> 00:46:12.800 And I'm going to select from the dropdown, I want to select the title colon index. 118 Crystal Rodriguez 00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:34.920 And then I'm not I'm not gonna add anything else at this point. I'm gonna go ahead and just click OK, and we see that I get a grouped list. I could click through this to see additional titles, but that is quite a few titles to search for. So I want to go ahead and re. 119 Crystal Rodriguez 00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.000 Refine my search. So I'm gonna open up that. 120 Crystal Rodriguez 00:46:39.600 --> 00:46:48.440 Dialogue box again. And this time I'm gonna use the cataloging menu, and I'm gonna choose search, and then WorldCat, and that brings up my box. 121 Crystal Rodriguez 00:46:50.600 --> 00:47:00.360 So to refine a little further, I'm going to add a personal name, and because we're searching by personal name, you can enter that in with first name, last name. 122 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:02.600 --> 00:47:06.280 And I already have personal name selected here as my index. 123 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:09.000 --> 00:47:14.920 Now this is gonna retrieve only records for the name that are found, that's found in the one hundred or seven hundred. 124 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:17.560 --> 00:47:27.640 If you wanted a broader index to search in Worldcat, you would want to use the AU colon or the author, but I'm going to go ahead and click ok here. 125 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:29.720 --> 00:47:35.160 And we see down at the bottom that I get sixty six results. So it's a little bit more manageable. 126 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:49.400 But it's still quite a few titles, so I'm gonna refine this a little bit further, but before I do that, I do want to open one of these up to show you what's being searched here. So if I double click on number eighteen. 127 Crystal Rodriguez 00:47:52.000 --> 00:48:04.640 I can see that Marianne Wolf is in the one hundred field and I can see the title of reader come home. So I understand why that was brought back for me because that personal name is in the one hundred field there. 128 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:08.520 --> 00:48:08.800 Alright. 129 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:11.640 --> 00:48:13.160 Going to go ahead and open up the search box. 130 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:15.520 --> 00:48:35.120 And now I want to discuss qualifiers before we add them in here. So because Worldcat is a very large database, qualifiers or limiters are important for efficient searching and limiting of the results retrieved. So here we see the available qualifiers. We have. 131 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:35.960 The language. 132 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:37.480 --> 00:48:50.520 This means the language that the book is written in or the language that it sung in, if it's a sound recording or that the actors are speaking in a DVD. So here we would just use a dropdown to add in our option. 133 Crystal Rodriguez 00:48:53.320 --> 00:49:10.320 Then we also have the language of cataloging Limiter. This means the language that is in the mark record, that being the physical description, the notes etc. Now it's important to note that the resource may or may not be in that same language. 134 Crystal Rodriguez 00:49:14.800 --> 00:49:34.760 So for my search, I'm going to go ahead and I want to apply the language of catalog ring limit limiter, so I'm gonna click there and I'm going to leave this as English, but you can use the dropdown to change the language of cataloging. So maybe your library prefers. 135 Crystal Rodriguez 00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:41.960 Spanish you want it, you're looking for items that are in the language of cataloging limiter. I'm sorry of Spanish. So you could choose that. 136 Crystal Rodriguez 00:49:44.560 --> 00:49:52.960 Now it's important to remember that when you set this, this is going to remain in place from session to session unless you change it. 137 Crystal Rodriguez 00:49:55.360 --> 00:50:03.320 And this setting applies whether you're searching using the quick search toolbar, the command line search or the keyword numeric search once it's in place. 138 Crystal Rodriguez 00:50:07.520 --> 00:50:15.840 So it's highly recommended to use this limiter to limit your search results so that you only get the items that are catalogged in your libraries preferred language. 139 Crystal Rodriguez 00:50:18.680 --> 00:50:38.000 Now, other options here are the source. So if we click on the dropdown there, we see the option of DLC. So this is going to retrieve records that are catalogued by the library of Congress or LC cooperative programs. Then we also have the option to add, either a single. 140 Crystal Rodriguez 00:50:38.160 --> 00:50:55.000 Year or a range of years. So for a single year you're just gonna enter in that year. If it's a range, you can enter like twenty twenty dash twenty twenty five or you can just, if you want from twenty twenty on, you can just leave it with the dash. 141 Crystal Rodriguez 00:50:58.760 --> 00:51:07.600 And then there's the format. So this is the general physical format of the material like books, computer files, visuals, et cetera. 142 Crystal Rodriguez 00:51:12.840 --> 00:51:32.120 And then there is the material type. So material type is going to include physical formats like CDs, DVDs, it's also going to include audience, like here we have juvenile all types, it's also going to include publication types like bibliographies. 143 Crystal Rodriguez 00:51:32.600 --> 00:51:39.640 I'm sorry biographies. And again, we also do see the option to, expand the list. 144 Crystal Rodriguez 00:51:40.960 --> 00:51:47.080 And also to customize that list the same way we did our, index other indexes. 145 Crystal Rodriguez 00:51:52.520 --> 00:51:55.760 So let's go ahead and actually apply some of these to our previous search. 146 Crystal Rodriguez 00:51:58.160 --> 00:52:01.920 So I want to go ahead and look for the language in English. 147 Crystal Rodriguez 00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:21.360 And I'm going to go ahead and click ok and see how that returns. So now we go from sixty six records down to twenty five. So that is much more manageable, but we can go even further. So let's go ahead and open up that box again. 148 Crystal Rodriguez 00:52:26.440 --> 00:52:43.880 And we're also going to choose the format of books, and I'm going to specifically look for the year of twenty eighteen. And if I hit enter or ok, now I just have ten records. This is a much more manageable option for myself to use. 149 Crystal Rodriguez 00:52:47.280 --> 00:52:56.920 And then the last index, if we wanted to look specifically for records that were LC catalog records, we can refine this search one more time. 150 Crystal Rodriguez 00:52:58.320 --> 00:53:12.400 By adding in the source of DLC. Click ok. It's taking a moment, and here we just get one record, and since there's just that one result, that full record is retrieved for us. 151 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:19.360 Okay, let me checking here. I don't see any questions so far. 152 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:22.240 --> 00:53:28.440 But I am going to pull up a couple of questions for you all. Bear with me just a moment while I get that up. 153 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:34.200 Okay, so here's our first question. I'm going to open up a poll for you. 154 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:36.320 --> 00:53:36.520 I think. 155 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:42.520 Alright, let me bring that over here. 156 Crystal Rodriguez 00:53:44.800 --> 00:54:04.760 Okay, so looking on, oh, actually before I do that, what we're seeing here is our matching points for our previous search. So we see that the language of English is shown there, and then we have our title, first edition that is our twenty eighteen, and our pagination matches. So we know that. 157 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:05.520 --> 00:54:08.000 Previous search was a match for us. 158 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:12.560 --> 00:54:15.240 Okay, so here's the exercise I'm going to go ahead and. 159 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:17.760 --> 00:54:23.360 Launch this for you. Bear with me a minute. Sorry, I forgot to do something here. Here we go. Okay. 160 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:25.760 --> 00:54:30.160 Alright, so you should be seeing a poll on your screen. 161 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:33.520 --> 00:54:51.920 So looking at the PowerPoint slide we see here, we've got three results for the title of the bears ears. We see that this title is published by the WW Norton and company in New York, New York, in the year. 162 Crystal Rodriguez 00:54:52.280 --> 00:55:12.120 Twenty twenty one, and that it's three hundred and twenty pages with maps and images, and it is a hard covered version. So then we want to look at our three examples here, and if you all can enter in the poll or in chat if you feel more comfortable, which of these do you think matches this item? 163 Crystal Rodriguez 00:55:15.520 --> 00:55:15.840 I'm. 164 Crystal Rodriguez 00:55:17.240 --> 00:55:18.480 And I'll give that a few moments. 165 Crystal Rodriguez 00:55:39.120 --> 00:55:58.600 It looks like just about everybody had that correct? That is number two. Now let's look at why that is. So record number one is an online source, so we see that in the three hundred field. It's possibly that it's an audio book file or something of that nature, additionally, the location. 166 Crystal Rodriguez 00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:19.040 And the publisher information does not match, so that's not our match. And I'm gonna jump down and look at number three. So number three is a match for CDs or audio CDs here, and again, the publication location and publisher do not match our item. So that. 167 Crystal Rodriguez 00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:24.800 Leads us to the second one, which is the best match. The title information is correct. 168 Crystal Rodriguez 00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:30.080 The publication in the two sixty four matches our item. 169 Crystal Rodriguez 00:56:32.200 --> 00:56:51.240 And the physical description closely matches that item as well. So this is one of those examples where our item had three hundred and twenty pages, the physical description is three twenty two, and the biographic formats and standards does allow force a slight discrepancy in pagination. 170 Crystal Rodriguez 00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:57.800 And that is outlined again in that chapter four. Alright, so let's do one more of these. 171 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:00.040 --> 00:57:00.960 Pull it up. 172 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:05.480 --> 00:57:06.000 Just a second here. 173 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:10.160 --> 00:57:16.240 So here's another example. We have on this one we have an ISP ISPN, and we have. 174 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:31.200 Our publication information with our date. This is the first edition with three hundred and twenty six pages. So here we're just looking at a brief list, but the information that we need to determine this match is available here. 175 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:33.520 --> 00:57:36.200 So I'm going to go ahead and launch that poll for you to be able to answer. 176 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:38.040 --> 00:57:40.840 Which record do you think is the best match for this item? 177 Crystal Rodriguez 00:57:45.280 --> 00:57:45.600 I'm. 178 Crystal Rodriguez 00:58:22.640 --> 00:58:24.360 We'll give us another moment or two here. 179 Crystal Rodriguez 00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:58.680 And we see here that the correct answer is the fourth record, which looks like everyone that answered you. 180 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:02.840 --> 00:59:03.680 To determine why that is. 181 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:05.280 --> 00:59:10.080 So the first record we see that that is a large print large print version. 182 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:11.840 --> 00:59:16.960 The second record is for an online resource. We can see that here in the brief description. 183 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:19.200 --> 00:59:27.600 As is the third record as well, that's also an online resource, and we're looking at the physical book. So our fourth record is a match. 184 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:31.480 --> 00:59:34.680 This is also the first edition so that matches as well. 185 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:37.240 --> 00:59:47.640 And we can see that all in that little brief description there. Alright, before I move on, any questions about what we've discussed so far or questions on those exercises? 186 Crystal Rodriguez 00:59:51.880 --> 00:59:54.680 I'm gonna pause for a moment to give you a chance to ask and if you have any. 187 Crystal Rodriguez 01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:14.200 Okay, seeing no questions, I'm gonna move on, but if anything does come up, be sure to add those into the chat. Oh, it looks like maybe there is a question. 188 Crystal Rodriguez 01:00:17.400 --> 01:00:24.400 I see it. Okay, let's see. Should the is, oh wait, ok, let me go up to the beginning of the question. Bear with me just one moment here. 189 Crystal Rodriguez 01:00:26.320 --> 01:00:46.760 Speak earlier. Okay, so speaking earlier of the two fifty popular fiction tends to have a number of reprints and additions attached to the DLC record. However, these records often have the two fifty first edition including paperback turtleback special editions etc. Should first editions still be used in records, non matches I see a number of. 190 Crystal Rodriguez 01:00:46.840 --> 01:01:00.680 DLC records with pre ISPN books, which have ISBNs added, ok. So I am gonna say that most of your questions here could be addressed by the chapter four, on when to add a mark record. 191 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:02.240 --> 01:01:07.120 In the bibly graphics standards and formats. As I said, sometimes there is room for some discrepancy. 192 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:08.680 --> 01:01:28.080 And that is outlined in that documentation. If that doesn't answer the question for you, you can send a message to our support team at support dot OCLC dot org or you can reach out to our quality control team at ask oh QC at OCLC dot org, and I'm gonna add their information into the chat. 193 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:29.280 --> 01:01:38.800 For you. They're really a great resource for helping you determine is this a match? Should a new record be added? Especially in some of these areas that you've outlined. 194 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:43.400 --> 01:01:45.040 Alright, thank you for that question. 195 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:47.080 --> 01:01:48.200 All right I'm gonna go ahead and move on. 196 Crystal Rodriguez 01:01:50.920 --> 01:02:09.680 So we're gonna shift gears a little bit and talk about phrase searches versus prior to that we had been doing some of those keyword searches. So with phrase searches, you can use, they can be a little bit more precise, which is especially useful for search keys that are short or consist of common. 197 Crystal Rodriguez 01:02:10.000 --> 01:02:14.440 Words. Phrase searches look for exactly what you typed. 198 Crystal Rodriguez 01:02:16.560 --> 01:02:36.200 In order left to right in a sub field. You don't want to leave out any words, so there's no need to worry about stop words, and then when you're searching personal names using phrase searches, you do need to enter last name first, include a comma in space between that last name and first name. 199 Crystal Rodriguez 01:02:37.040 --> 01:02:53.080 Like the example you see here of wolf, comma space Mary Ann. And then an additionally with the phrase searches, you can use a truncation by entering in an asterisk and I'll demo that here shortly. 200 Crystal Rodriguez 01:03:09.080 --> 01:03:25.480 So some common phrase indexes are similar to the ones that we saw for keyword searches, but instead of using a colon, you're gonna use an equals. So for the author, you would use a U equals personal name is P N equals. 201 Crystal Rodriguez 01:03:27.440 --> 01:03:32.800 And so on. Subject would be S U equals title T I equals examples like that. 202 Crystal Rodriguez 01:03:35.240 --> 01:03:47.920 Now, if your item has a title with the same words such as our example here, a phrase search is gonna be most useful and precise to perform in connection client. So let's take a look at this in connection. 203 Crystal Rodriguez 01:03:50.680 --> 01:04:07.000 So we have our title of tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, and we see that this is an English with the publisher being Alfred Namf of New York and our publication year of twenty twenty two with four hundred pages. So now I'm gonna jump over to connection here. 204 Crystal Rodriguez 01:04:11.720 --> 01:04:16.120 I'm going to open up the search dialogue box. I am going to clear my previous search. 205 Crystal Rodriguez 01:04:20.560 --> 01:04:26.280 And I'm gonna start by just searching the title as I see it there. I'm not gonna enter in the commas though. 206 Crystal Rodriguez 01:04:33.160 --> 01:04:53.120 And I'm gonna first demo demonstrate this as a title keyword search. So let's go ahead and leave our indexes TI colon, and let's click OK, and we get a notice that there's too many records in our search, so we need to simplify this. And we can see that what happened was connection is searching tomorrow and tomorrow. 207 Crystal Rodriguez 01:04:53.280 --> 01:04:58.640 And tomorrow. Each of those individually. So let's go ahead and click ok to get back to our search. 208 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:00.320 --> 01:05:01.560 And I'm going to change this. 209 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:16.000 I'll, a phrase search, and I can do that using the dropdown and I can see here title phrase, which is T I call in equals. Sorry. 210 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:20.120 --> 01:05:21.600 Before we do that, let me go back to that. 211 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:23.320 --> 01:05:28.280 Other search, and let me narrow down a little bit so we can still sort of see what connection is searching here. 212 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:42.080 So I'm going to go ahead and try and search English as my language. I'm gonna do the formats of books, and then I'm gonna enter that twenty twenty two as my year, and I'm gonna click enter. 213 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:44.160 --> 01:05:49.120 And I still get, I get over a thousand results, but I want to go ahead and click on that books group. 214 Crystal Rodriguez 01:05:53.440 --> 01:06:13.800 And I want to look at a couple of examples here. So when we look at this, we see that regardless of how many times tomorrow was searched, connection is only searching actually on one instance of that entered word. So all of these titles will have tomorrow somewhere in the title, but it won't necessarily begin with the word tomorrow, so. 215 Crystal Rodriguez 01:06:13.840 --> 01:06:30.400 So that's why we get so many results when we're looking at an a keyword search like this. So now let's see what happens when we change it to a phrase search. So I opened up my search box and I'm going to go ahead and change that to title phrase. 216 Crystal Rodriguez 01:06:32.520 --> 01:06:49.240 And I'm going to leave the indexes as I had them before, and let's go ahead and click on ok. In here we only get twenty results, and we see that all of the results begin with tomorrow, and it's tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow. 217 Crystal Rodriguez 01:06:52.280 --> 01:06:53.760 So with that phrase search. 218 Crystal Rodriguez 01:06:56.080 --> 01:06:59.160 We're seeing all of those in an exact order in that sub field. 219 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:00.720 --> 01:07:02.720 And they all begin with what we searched. 220 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:05.680 --> 01:07:08.800 So if we click on one of these, we can view that a little further here. 221 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:10.280 --> 01:07:11.960 We'll double click to open one of those records. 222 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:14.280 --> 01:07:18.080 And we can see the title as we are free search there. 223 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:20.160 --> 01:07:28.440 Alright, now we also can search that with a truncation, so I'm going to take off the last and tomorrow here. 224 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:40.000 And I'm gonna replace that with an asterisk, keeping my index as title phrase equals and my other qualifiers. I'm going to go ahead and click on ok. 225 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:41.640 --> 01:07:44.000 And we see we get a few more results. 226 Crystal Rodriguez 01:07:46.760 --> 01:07:57.960 And that is going to be because connection is looking for any word after tomorrow and tomorrow. So that's why we get for this love poems and quarantine if we look at that. 227 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:08.120 Here within the five oh five we would see it's a little bit long so I'm gonna avoid looking at that. But that would be why it was returned. 228 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:22.480 So again, a phrase search is gonna be that more precise search to find the title in worldcap. Cause it's going to retrieve a smaller number of records, which is going to be easier to examine and determine if that is your match. 229 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:25.080 --> 01:08:25.359 Okay. 230 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:30.319 --> 01:08:37.319 And here we see an example of those searches and we see that one of our results is the DLC. 231 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:39.799 --> 01:08:42.880 So that's the one that we might want to review further. 232 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:46.680 --> 01:08:53.080 Now in addition to using the phrase search, we also have an option for pull phrase searching. 233 Crystal Rodriguez 01:08:55.279 --> 01:09:06.520 So phrase searches are only looking at one sub field at a time. However, whole phrase searches look at multiple sub fields or the entire field. So a whole phrase. 234 Crystal Rodriguez 01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:18.799 Index labels ends with a W So for an example, for a subject whole phrase, we would use SU W equals instead of just s u equals. 235 Crystal Rodriguez 01:09:20.880 --> 01:09:40.960 And when you're using the whole phrase search, you must enter all of the words in all of the sub fields or you can use a truncation. So here on our screen, we see an example of a six fifty one field of United States sub field X foreign release relations, sub field Z. 236 Crystal Rodriguez 01:09:41.319 --> 01:09:49.560 Canada. So we want to make sure that connection is searching for records that have all of those in our subject. 237 Crystal Rodriguez 01:09:50.880 --> 01:09:54.480 So we would want to use a subject whole phrase search. 238 Crystal Rodriguez 01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:01.560 And I'm going to go ahead and demonstrate using that. So I'm going to go back over to connection. 239 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:05.520 --> 01:10:18.120 Now this is also the whole phrase search is helpful when you're doing original cataloging or like I said, if you're searching for records with this specific subject heading, because maybe you want to assign those call numbers. 240 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:21.280 --> 01:10:23.200 That are linked to that same subject heading. 241 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:24.800 --> 01:10:28.120 So I'm going to open up my search box, clear out my previous search. 242 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:32.520 --> 01:10:36.560 And here I'm going to enter in the phrase United States. 243 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:38.360 --> 01:10:39.240 Foreign Relations. 244 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:42.000 --> 01:10:42.480 And Canada. 245 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:44.880 --> 01:10:51.560 I'm going to use the dropdown to change that to the subject whole phrase of S U W equals. 246 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:54.840 --> 01:10:56.960 Going to enter in the year twenty twenty. 247 Crystal Rodriguez 01:10:58.800 --> 01:11:00.520 Just to narrow down my search a little bit. 248 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:04.720 --> 01:11:09.800 And here I get fourteen results. I'm going to go ahead and look at number ten here. 249 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:12.840 --> 01:11:14.440 While that is a Spanish record. 250 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:22.600 We see the language of catalogging is actually in English so we can see the six fifty one fields here and we see. 251 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:24.920 --> 01:11:28.440 The United States foreign Relations Canada was returned here. 252 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:32.080 --> 01:11:52.040 As I mentioned, this could be useful if you want to determine a call number to use here. Last class I did misspeak and kept calling these subject headings. I do apologize, the O five oh and O eight two are call numbers. Oh while the O five oh is the call number O eight two is your doing number field. So this is useful for. 253 Crystal Rodriguez 01:11:53.080 --> 01:11:56.200 Purpose when you're using that subject whole phrase search. 254 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:00.800 --> 01:12:10.360 Alright, and it can be useful if you're doing original catalogging as well in case you want to look for similar subject headings and assign those yourself to your records as well. 255 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:12.280 --> 01:12:24.560 Alright, so those are our primary types of searching, and I'm going to shift in a few moments here to talking about our documentation on WorldCat indexes, but before doing that, I'm just checking to see if there's any additional questions. 256 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:28.920 --> 01:12:30.040 I'm just gonna pause for a moment there. 257 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:40.080 --> 01:12:40.440 Okay. 258 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:42.720 --> 01:12:47.440 So I'm going to shift over to my web browser here. 259 Crystal Rodriguez 01:12:50.080 --> 01:13:00.760 And right now I have up the learner guide. But I want to go back to our help site directly, and that's just help dot O C L C dot org. 260 Crystal Rodriguez 01:13:02.280 --> 01:13:06.720 Actually, before I do that, let's go over here and get some info. Oops real wrong thing. 261 Crystal Rodriguez 01:13:09.200 --> 01:13:28.840 Alright, so whether you are a beginner or an expert searcher of Worldcat, the searching Worldcat indexes documentation is a very useful resource. This is linked in that learner guide, but also you can find it by going directly to our help site here, this. 262 Crystal Rodriguez 01:13:29.040 --> 01:13:49.400 This document is going to help you construct complex searches especially searches that you don't do on a regular basis. It also explains why you got the search that you did, what indexes are being searched etc. So you can find that in the learner guide or you can go here to help dot OCLC dot org. 263 Crystal Rodriguez 01:13:50.160 --> 01:13:52.120 Go to the Libraryans toolbox. 264 Crystal Rodriguez 01:13:53.480 --> 01:14:10.440 And then we're going to find the searching Roadcat indexes. You also can just in here where it says, how can we help you? You can search searching worldcat indexes and that would be the first item that comes up as a recommended link. I'm going to go ahead and click on the link here. 265 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:14.040 And I'm gonna review this a little bit. 266 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:18.560 So let's start by looking at the. 267 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:20.320 --> 01:14:24.960 About searching Worldcat indexes. We can find a little bit more about this documentation. 268 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:29.840 --> 01:14:30.520 And this is going to show. 269 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:32.560 --> 01:14:48.720 Indexes, but it's also going to show the mark fields and sub fields that are indexed for each worldcat index. It's going to give you some examples and provide information about how those indexes work to help construct searches that retrieve the records that you need. 270 Crystal Rodriguez 01:14:51.040 --> 01:15:10.720 So I'm gonna jump back to another part of the documentation. Here I can just click on these breadcrumb links here at the top. So I'm gonna go back to searching Worldcat indexes, and I want to scroll down a little bit to bibliographic records. Actually I'm gonna start with the searching Worldcat indexes. 271 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:10.920 --> 01:15:11.280 Guidelines. 272 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:14.760 --> 01:15:17.800 Give us some information about using these indexes. 273 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:19.240 --> 01:15:20.360 There's information on capitalization. 274 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:21.760 --> 01:15:26.480 Using article, initial articles et cetera, but what I want to do is I want to actually click on spacing. 275 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:28.120 --> 01:15:48.280 And here I want to show you that in all of the searches you do not enter spaces between the index label and the punctuation. So as we see here in our exemp, our example, you would use KW colon without a space and then put software for keyword search. And I was demonstrating that throughout the session. 276 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:48.600 --> 01:15:48.840 As well. 277 Crystal Rodriguez 01:15:51.240 --> 01:16:10.920 And then the other area I want to point out is this special characters in Latin script searches. So this gives us information on punctuation diacritics, and special characters. When we're searching, if we click on this little table here, it will open up for us and we can see how. 278 Crystal Rodriguez 01:16:12.240 --> 01:16:12.880 Are searched. 279 Crystal Rodriguez 01:16:14.280 --> 01:16:34.240 And what, how we should treat those as we're searching using these indexes. So for an example, if you're looking for the, I'm think it's pronounced Akutey or the, what I call an accent mark, you would omit and close up that space. So you would just not include that, or if you're looking for an amphersand, you would. 280 Crystal Rodriguez 01:16:34.680 --> 01:16:40.400 Type that and include it. So that is very helpful if you're using any of those special characters when you're searching. 281 Crystal Rodriguez 01:16:42.960 --> 01:16:50.160 Alright, now I'm gonna go back to the searching role cat indexes breadcrumb here, and I'm going to look at bibliographic records. 282 Crystal Rodriguez 01:16:52.040 --> 01:16:56.160 Specifically I want to look at the bibliographic record indexes. So I'm going to click on that. 283 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:00.320 --> 01:17:17.280 And this is a list of bibligraphic indexes, and this tells you what Mark fields each index searches. And these, you can see these are grouped by groups of alphabetical orders so I'm going to go down to the O through R and I want to click on that header there to open up that information. 284 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:19.440 --> 01:17:21.760 And specifically I want to look at personal name. 285 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:23.920 --> 01:17:24.600 So I click on that. 286 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:26.560 --> 01:17:46.160 And here I see that in connection, the label that I would use for a personal name keyword search is PN colon, and I have some examples, and I see that this is going to search the one hundred and seven hundred field with these specific sub fields in those areas as well. 287 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:47.120 --> 01:17:50.800 So this is very helpful to know where that search is coming from. 288 Crystal Rodriguez 01:17:57.320 --> 01:18:00.880 Now I'm gonna go back to the bibly graphic records area, again. 289 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:04.880 --> 01:18:10.320 And here I want to look in the bibliographic records sub field or fields and sub fields area. 290 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:15.920 --> 01:18:19.680 And I'm going to look specifically at the six XX fields. 291 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:21.720 --> 01:18:41.880 So this is going to allow me to determine what is being indexed for that specific field. And again, what labels I can use. So I'm looking at the six fifty one to six fifty five four, and I see here the field and sub field indexed. I've got the information that this is a subject and here I see all three of my options. 292 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:42.040 --> 01:18:44.720 For word, phrase, and whole phrase search. 293 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:51.640 --> 01:18:55.520 And then I'm going to go back again here to buildographic records. 294 Crystal Rodriguez 01:18:58.720 --> 01:19:04.440 And I want to show that we have the format document type values and codes, so I'm gonna go ahead and click on that. 295 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:06.560 --> 01:19:08.480 And specifically I'm looking for a connection. 296 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:10.360 --> 01:19:25.760 Labels here, and this is giving me the labels that I need to use for different qualifiers. So in the format qualifiers, so if I know I want to look for books, then I can use the BKS code, so I would use BKS colon. 297 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:27.520 --> 01:19:33.840 Or I can use the slash qualifier after my search as well. And again, there's usually some examples that you can find within here as well. 298 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:36.720 --> 01:19:43.240 And then let's look one more item here. We're gonna look at the material type names and codes under the bigger graphic records area. 299 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:45.600 --> 01:19:56.080 And so these are going to be names and codes for more specific material types such as DVD, large print, et cetera. So, for. 300 Crystal Rodriguez 01:19:57.640 --> 01:20:17.960 So we, if we click on the visual materials, we see all of the different items that are under visual materials category. So we can scroll down and look for video disk, and we see the code is VDC, and we get some examples there or we can look at video recording and see VID, et ceter. 301 Crystal Rodriguez 01:20:20.680 --> 01:20:29.000 So here you're going to be using the search indexes, I highly recommend bookmarking this page and referring back to it frequently. 302 Crystal Rodriguez 01:20:30.920 --> 01:20:37.240 And this is gonna be very useful when you are working on complex searches, which is the next thing we're gonna talk about. 303 Crystal Rodriguez 01:20:39.240 --> 01:20:41.200 So let me go back to my connection here. 304 Crystal Rodriguez 01:20:43.840 --> 01:20:49.960 Alright, still not seeing any questions, so I'm gonna go ahead and talk a little more about those complex searches. 305 Crystal Rodriguez 01:20:51.960 --> 01:20:59.840 So I'm going to open up my search bar box. I'm gonna go to Chris cataloging search Worldcat. I want to clear my previous search. 306 Crystal Rodriguez 01:21:04.160 --> 01:21:24.360 And this time I'm gonna enter this in the command line search so that I can enter in those indexes. So just a couple of refresher notes. You're not going to use a space between the index label or the search terms. You can type multiple search terms following an index label. The operator of and is implied. 307 Crystal Rodriguez 01:21:24.640 --> 01:21:45.000 So it's not necessary to include that in between your index labels and your searches. So let's look at our previous example of tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow. So I'm going to go ahead and enter that as a title phrase search, so I'm gonna use T I equals, and i'm. 308 Crystal Rodriguez 01:21:45.360 --> 01:21:46.280 Enter the entire title. 309 Crystal Rodriguez 01:21:52.280 --> 01:22:10.480 No space after that equals sign, but I do wanna put a space before the next index. So my next index I'm gonna use A La colon for language. Enter in the language code of ENG for English, and then I'm gonna put a space, and now I want to enter in the year index. 310 Crystal Rodriguez 01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:14.720 Why R colon and I'm gonna enter twenty twenty two. 311 Crystal Rodriguez 01:22:16.760 --> 01:22:36.560 So I'm going to go ahead and hit enter or ok. And this is the same results that I got when I was searching using the keyword numeric search. However, it maybe a little bit faster to type that query into the command line if you know how to construct that search. And then let's look at one more. 312 Crystal Rodriguez 01:22:36.880 --> 01:22:54.520 Example of a complex search. I'm gonna go ahead and clear that previous one. And again, we're gonna use our previous example of reader come home. This time I'm gonna enter the title as a keyword, so T I colon reader, pump home. 313 Crystal Rodriguez 01:22:56.080 --> 01:22:58.680 With a space, and I want to go ahead and put in. 314 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:00.040 --> 01:23:13.360 The personal name phrase. So that's gonna be P N equals, and because we're doing the phrase search, recall we have to do last name, comma, space, first name. 315 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:16.000 --> 01:23:20.440 We're gonna use material type, we're gonna do CDA so that we can get to that. 316 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:22.000 --> 01:23:22.240 Disk. 317 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:23.720 --> 01:23:30.960 And then LA colon for English E NG for English, and our year of twenty eighteen. 318 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:37.080 --> 01:23:40.200 Alright, and then we're just gonna go ahead and hit enter here. 319 Crystal Rodriguez 01:23:41.600 --> 01:24:01.840 And we get those six results. And again, this maybe faster than using the indexes as limiters. It's really oftentimes a personal preference as to whether you prefer to use that complex search with those. Do you want to also point out that with that personal name search, it is different than an author search. 320 Crystal Rodriguez 01:24:02.000 --> 01:24:10.320 So with personal name, it's last name comma, space, first name, with an author, you can do first name, last name, any order. 321 Crystal Rodriguez 01:24:18.040 --> 01:24:33.920 We got through that pretty quickly. That was all I had to show you on the searches, but let's see if there's any questions that have come in. I don't see any yet. We do have quite a bit of time if anybody does have some residual questions that I can address for you. 322 Crystal Rodriguez 01:24:37.280 --> 01:24:37.600 Oops. 323 Crystal Rodriguez 01:24:39.880 --> 01:24:59.320 So I'm gonna go ahead and leave up here my screen on, if you do have questions after this session, you can reach out to our support team so you can go to help dot OCLC dot org. You can click on contact OCLC support to find information for contacting support in your region. You also can. 324 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:00.960 --> 01:25:04.160 Email so that's an option that you see here, send an email or submit request. 325 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:25.680 S then while we're waiting to see if there's any questions, a couple of little follow up reminders. So you do have that learner guide, and again, it contains information such as different ways to search worldcat. Those frequently used keyword and phrase indexes, as well as information on matching your record. 326 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:26.600 --> 01:25:32.920 And it's got those links to the billographic formats and standards. So it's a really nice resource to kind of hold on to. 327 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:34.280 --> 01:25:35.440 And refer back to. 328 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:41.440 --> 01:25:47.640 Yeah, and thank you Mallory added Mallory added that to the chat again, so you can hold on to that if you'd like. 329 Crystal Rodriguez 01:25:52.200 --> 01:25:58.520 Okay, I do see, let's see, is that a comment question. Okay. I'm so glad to hear that those are helpful for you. 330 Crystal Rodriguez 01:26:01.680 --> 01:26:03.600 That's, that's exactly what we're here for. 331 Crystal Rodriguez 01:26:07.960 --> 01:26:25.760 And, just preparing in case we don't have any other questions, feel free to ask them if you have them, but I'm gonna take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone as well and when this class ends, you will be taken to an evaluation, it's a quick evaluation form. We do appreciate any. 332 Crystal Rodriguez 01:26:26.080 --> 01:26:45.840 And all feedback on our session, any suggestions, you can add those there as well. And, we use those to improve our sessions. So we really do appreciate those, and if you have any other questions regarding the training itself, you can always reach us at training at OCLC dot org. 333 Crystal Rodriguez 01:26:47.480 --> 01:26:56.720 So I'm going to pause and case there are any questions just for a moment or two. If I don't see any, we'll go ahead and close early and give you all some time back. 334 Crystal Rodriguez 01:27:12.440 --> 01:27:12.640 Alright. 335 Crystal Rodriguez 01:27:21.760 --> 01:27:38.840 I do see a question here, so if I remember correctly in the second quiz, the pagination didn't match the offered records, would this be something to submit a possible correction? So if you have the item in hand and you know for a fact that it's should be corrected, if you have. 336 Crystal Rodriguez 01:27:40.240 --> 01:28:00.680 The correct authorizations to make that change yourself, you can do that, which we'll talk about in our next session or you can reach out to have that corrected Yes. I will say that sometimes with just those slight differences, it, it is helpful to have it corrected but you wouldn't, like I said earlier. 337 Crystal Rodriguez 01:28:00.840 --> 01:28:01.720 You wouldn't create a new record. 338 Crystal Rodriguez 01:28:07.840 --> 01:28:08.040 All right. 339 Crystal Rodriguez 01:28:15.240 --> 01:28:20.040 Alright, well, again, thank you all for your time. I'm going to go ahead and stop the recording and.
