MarcEdit has a Add/Delete function under TOOLS that will allow you to add a field to a batch of records.

 

 

 

 

Hello,

 

Our Serials Solutions records are often missing the 222 fields which isn’t required by OCLC and we are using the Sierra version of III which has a periodical title search function that searches 222. If your ILS has a periodical search function is it utilized for electronic records?

 

If so or even if not, does anyone have technical knowledge with MARC Edit where you might help me figure out how to add a missing 222 to my records? In batch?   I can find the missing 222 by title 245 but then how do I add these without doing it one at a time? I can’t figure it out.   I might sometimes receive 3,000 new records.   

 

Thanks so much! Have a great day.

 

-Robin
