Configure separate file delivery

Many libraries choose to have their file of records delivered in a separate file. To configure separate file delivery:

  1. Click on the Record Delivery tab and find the Delivery File Output settings. Select Change to deliver records for this collection in a separate file.
  2. From the resulting Record Delivery Templates screen, select Deliver records for this collection in a separate file
  3. Specify a file name that already exists or enter a new file name in which to deliver records using the Record Delivery Template.
    • Collection Manager will output the records from the collection in a separate file and include the file name you entered between the time stamp and the file extension. Example where [XXX] represents your library symbol:
 
Exclude records which already have holdings set in WorldCat

This setting acts as a filter to filter out from record delivery titles that you have set holdings on through some process outside of Collection Manager.

By default you will receive a full set of records for the titles in the collection. Your initial batch of records will have a record for every title. The default setting is:

  • Include new records already held in WorldCat (default)

If you do not want records for items you already have holdings on in WorldCat, you can choose to have those titles withheld from record delivery. Change the setting to Do not include records already held in WorldCat and you will only receive records that do not already have your holding attached in WorldCat.

 Note: If you choose not to have records output for titles you already hold in WorldCat, we recommend that you change this setting back to "Include new records already held in WorldCat" after you receive your first delivery.

Troubleshoot MARC record delivery
  1. Are the correct number of titles selected in your collections?
    • Once the holdings feed has been processed, the correct number of titles should be selected within one week. Do not select the collection manually unless explicitly directed to do so.  Selecting the collections manually will result in a significant delay in processing of your holdings feed.
  2. Have you enabled MARC records at the institution level?
    • Navigate to Collection Manager > Settings > MARC Records and ensure the Enable MARC Records Delivery option is set to Yes.
  3. Have you enabled MARC record delivery within the collection?
    • Navigate to the collection and expand Holdings and MARC Records.  Ensure that the Enable MARC Record Delivery option is set to Use institution settings.
  4. Is the delivery frequency for record delivery set to daily?
    • Remember that delivery frequency can be set per collection and this collection-level setting will override the institution-level delivery frequency set under Collection Manager > Settings. If you set your collection to Weekly or Monthly record delivery, then they will have to wait for your first delivery.  If you change delivery to Daily, an initial delivery is triggered.  After receiving this initial delivery, you can then set it to Monthly or Weekly for on-going delivery of records if necessary.
