How can I create a report for our held government documents?
Applies to
- WorldShare Collection Manager
Answer
There are 4 material types that make up government document collections. The types include: International government publication , Local government publication, National government publication, and State or province publication.
To see a search result list of each type of government document, please log into WorldShare Record Manager or WorldCat Discovery and run each of the 4 queries below:
International government publication
li:(library symbol) AND mt:igp
Local government publication
li:(library symbol) AND mt:lgp
National government publication
li:(library symbol) AND mt:ngp
State or province publication
li:(library symbol) AND mt:sgp
Once you determine which of the material types you desire, you can create a query collection. If you desire all 4 types, that is okay too, just use:
li:(library symbol) AND mt:gpb
The selection criteria used to create a query collection of government documents will be based on the search logic above. Just enter the values into the WorldCat selection criteria portion of the query collection set up.
