To make it easier for you to consistently follow CCS local practices we recommend using the Local Practices Macro in OCLC Connexion. The following actions are accomplished by using the macro:

Deletions

  • 020 subfield z for e-resources in print records
  • Punctuation in the 257 field
  • Unapproved subject and genre headings
  • "Junk" tags
  • Tags containing DLC in a subfield 5
  • 710s for common audiobook publishers

Additions

  • Subfield q before ISBN qualifiers
  • 340 field for large type, microfilm, and braille
  • 347 field for sound and video recordings
  • 655 field for Bilingual books
  • 753 field for video game platforms
  • 380 & 655 fields for Electronic books

Replaces

  • Relator codes with relator terms
  • Bracketed pages with unnumbered
  • "ACLEP" with "Playaway audio" or "Playaway video"

Messages A message box will pop-up when a record contains an untraced series or when a record is a parallel record.
