Please note that this procedure has been revised extensively as of May 2018, therefore previous references to the procedure may no longer apply
These are the three cases in which DCAPS initiates a Batch process
1. BIBs need eBIBs
Participants: user-0b855, Batch staff
Scenario: Creation of eBIBs for digitized items in delivery systems. eBIBs will only be created if the following criteria is met:
- Items are individually cataloged (not items where the only representation in the catalog is at the collection-level)
- Access with a URL will be provided (only create eBIBs at the time of provisioning for access)
Input: spreadsheet of BIBs with Delivery URLs
Output: eBIBs are created
- DCAPS emails user-0b855 a spreadsheet of BIBs and URLs
- user-0b855 passes along to appropriate Batch Processing representative
- Batch processing creates eBIBs and notifies user-0b855 when they are complete
2. DCAPS needs to know which things have been digitized
Participants: DCAPS Project Manager, user-0b855, Batch representative
Scenario: DCAPS has digitized items and would like the catalog record to note that these items have been digitized (single items). There is likely not to be an eBIB for these items because we do not catalog this type of access point (i.e. Hathi Trust), or the item is not in a delivery system.
Input: spreadsheet of BIBs and the date that the items were digitized
Output: BIBs get 899 code (INSERT CODE HERE)
- DCAPS emails spreadsheet of BIBs to user-0b855 to hand over to Batch representative
- Batch places 899 code (INSERT CODE HERE) on the BIB records with a subfield $d for date
- Batch notifies user-0b855 which 899 code was used
3. DCAPS needs to know what items are in a digital collection
Participants: DCAPS Project Manager, user-0b855, Batch representative
Scenario: DCAPS has a group of records that belong to a single digital collection and would like the catalog records to note that they belong to that collection
- if representation of these items exists somewhere as a collection (i.e. finding aid, catalog record, etc.), this will be the likely scenario
- it is strongly preferred that all items from a collection are sent at the same time, please email user-0b855 prior to the request if this is not possible and must be sent in batches
- DCAPS will work with the curator to decide whether to group these items on the eBIB or the BIB record
Input: spreadsheet of BIBs
Output: BIBs get 899 code
- DCAPS emails spreadsheet of BIBs to user-0b855 to hand over to Batch representative
- Batch places an 899 code on the records
- see LTS Procedure xxx for the creation of 899 codes (does not yet exist, should include up-to-date list of 899 codes with a way for DCAPS to access the list)
- Batch notifies user-0b855 which 899 code was used
PostScript: Linking the Digital Asset Bib Record to the Physical/Analog Asset Bib Record
When deriving digital asset Catalog records from physical or analog asset Catalog records, we want to indicate the derivative relationship between the two resources.
- a special 035 field is generated by Batch that links the derived, digital asset bibliographic record to the physical/analog bibliographic record (documentation for this?)
