Lisa is on vacation until the 13th, but she asked me to do some ebrary work.  I still don't totally understand what she asked me to do.

Guy recommended I simply do what I normally do.

Here's what I did today

  • Updated Marc Records today at the partners site. It is taking awhile, that's for sure.

Results:

MARC records for channel:

  • Requested "Added MARCs" for "All Perpetual (163)" only.
  • The MARC file I received was 0 kb, so there weren't any new SUPO or MUPO titles to load.

Thread on June 28th:

If you go to the ebrary marc records page and look at the marc record download list, you will see downloads dated yesterday. I imagine that was everything, the bulk of it Academic complete. So the records are formated and waiting to be loaded into sirsi from the ebrary web page. I'm sorry to have jumped the gun on you, but I was trying to get the stats done before leaving for vacation and a comparison between last month and this month showed a difference of close to 3000 and threw me off. Will you load the records into sirsi and let Guy know he can delete the titles in the delete file?
Again, apologies for jumping the gun.

Dear Lisa,
 
I'm a little confused.  Are you saying below that you "Updated the MARC data" as of yesterday?  If so, then I won't need to do that step, right?
 
also
 
By "get the records from the ebrary site", are you asking for me to do my usual routine and just get/load the records for our collection of purchased SUPO and MUPO titles  (which is definitely not 2907 records) and not the Academic Complete ones?
 
I'm happy to do my usual routine or load all 2907 records, but I just need to know which one you'd like me to do.
 
I'll also gladly make a report about all 389 deletes, as per my standard practice.
-Matthew

Hi guys,
 
Sorry to be a pest but I was trying to do monthly stats for ebrary before I left for vacation and noticed our total holdings were completely out of whack with our record download numbers. So I checked the site, and retrieved the records as of 6/28. There are 2907 adds and 389 deletes. Would you guys go ahead , get the records from the ebrary site and load the reports into SIRSI? I'm going to go ahead and put the 6/28 rocords into the monthly stats.
 
Let me know if there's a problem. Thanks,
Lisa
