Best Practice: Syncing IZ & NZ Brief Levels for Bibliographic Records

Synchronization of IZ/NZ brief level rules will reduce troubleshooting, better prepare the Alliance for future shared/collaborative work efforts, and aligns with the Alliance’s Work Smart initiative.

Policy: Floor Bibliographic Standards

The purpose of a floor standard for bibliographic records is to specify minimum standards for completeness and content designation. Catalogers must ensure that every record adheres to this floor standard and are encouraged to use their judgement to determine whether additional data elements are beneficial.

Policy: Cataloging at the WorldCat Level

Due to the technical architecture of the Alma NZ, changes must be entered into the WorldCat bibliographic record or they will be lost when the Alma record is overlaid. By cataloging at the WorldCat level, Alliance members improve discoverability for all Alliance Primo users, not just their own users.
