Edit local holdings records

Discover how to edit a local holdings record from the MARC 21 editor or Text view editor in WorldShare Record Manager.

You can edit an LHR in the MARC 21 editor or Text View editor to update the fields and information for a LHR.

Inserting delimiter characters in fields

When updating LHR fields, workarounds may be necessary for the inclusion of certain special characters and symbols.

  • The US dollar sign symbol ($) is used as a delimiter to indicate a new subfield in Record Manager, and must be replaced by two dollar sign symbols ($$) if included as a non-delimiter. Example: To use the stylized title Ca$h in a 5XX note field, it would entered as Ca$$h.

 Note: If the Check Duplicate Call Number user preference is enabled, a warning message will appear when a call number that you're adding to or editing in an LHR occurs in one or more other LHRs attached to separate bibliographic records. If the duplicate call number exists in an LHR under the same bibliographic record, there will be no warning. You can choose to save the call number anyway or cancel and adjust it.
