  SCCTP MARC21 Holdings Format/Serials Format    
Course description    
This SCCTP workshop introduces  trainees to the MARC21 Format for Holdings Data (MFHD) and provides the  basic principles of creating holdings records and publication patterns.  All materials are based on the MARC21 Format for Holdings data and on  the ANSI/NISO Z39.71 holdings standard. This two-day workshop focuses  on creating both coded and freetext holdings records, recording serial  publication patterns, and on the details for the MARC21 format itself.  The instructions and exercises are system-neutral, but the course will  include some discussion of local system implementation if time permits.  It is optional but recommended that trainees bring with them their  copies of the MARC 21 for Holdings Data and Z39.71 documentation to  refer to during class discussions.

      Local Holdings Maintenance Basics    
Prerequisites     
Familiarity with searching on Connexion     
Course description    
In February 2006, OCLC retired the  Union List System and replaced it with a Local Holdings Maintenance  (LHM) capability in the Connexion Browser. The new LHM feature allows a  library to efficiently create and maintain holdings for all formats of  library materials--serials, books, sound recordings, etc.--and adheres  to the national standards for holdings, MARC Holdings (MFHD) and  Z39.71. This hands-on workshop gives a detailed overview of the new LHM  and explores the many options and methods now available to add,  maintain, or delete a library's holdings on WorldCat.
