Putting the records into our system• ELNET consortium’s technical

specialist Anneli Sepp added the MARC records into our system

Customizing

• From Naxos, we had field 856 customized: =856 40$zConnect to Naxos Music

Library$uhttp://ema.edu.ee=http://ema.naxosmusiclibrary.com/streamcat.asp?s=40970%2femanml02&item_code=SMCD5211

We decided to customize the records as much as possible to make them look like ordinary records in the catalogue.

Fields we translated

• 245 |h[electronic resource] / Helisalvestis• 511: Composers / Helilooja(d)• 538: Minimum system requirements..• 856: |zConnect to Naxos Music Library• All the instruments from the field 5XX• All the functions of person’s we use in our

catalogue (e.g. performer, composer..)• We decided to identify the records as

sound recordings, not as electronic resources

ALSO: unifying

• Very different ways to present composer’s names, we tried to unify it

• With the help of Global Update function we unified 210 performer’s and composer’s name

Example of unifying process (with Global Update)

Variants of one name

• Listing duplicates:

• Deleting NML records and adding links to the “real” records

Minimizing the number of duplicates

Results: From that kind of record...• =245 00$aMOZART :$bExsultate, jubilate / HAYDN:

...into this:

Why all this?Positive and negative sidesPositive:• 12830 recordings are

searchable via OPAC• Users can access

more recordings than we have on the shelves easily and quickly

• The recordings are often found by the users, who don’t know how to search

Negative:• They can’t be

searched with general rules (except authors)

• Sometimes the number of licences is increased and the account blocked
