<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Hi everyone, <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">With the update to ASpace v.3 the Agents module has had a complete redesign that does not seem to match the records that have been entered in earlier versions. I have been testing with the new version and have some concerns.
I would like to know how others deal with these issues (if at all).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Background: <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We have invested a lot of time over the last 18 months to convert all our Agent records to LCNAF-records. Our old Agent records were either local or were derived from the Dutch Authority File. We used the LCNAF plugin
to import the LCNAF-records and merge them with the existing records. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Our cataloguers doing this job could easily check to see what records were still waiting to be handled and which ones were already made from LCNAF-records, because they could filter by source when browsing the Agents.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><img width="174" height="200" style="width:1.8125in;height:2.0833in" id="Picture_x0020_12" src="cid:image001.png@01D7A0AE.8B2488E0"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">In the new module there are changes that makes that the LCNAF importer won’t match the records made in the older versions. If a NACO-record is reimported a new record is created.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Q: How do people deal with this? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I also understand updates to records are something on the roadmap. I would like to take advantage of this. Should we somehow convert the old records to the newer version? Any ideas on how to do this?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Because of the new structure the records are also not recognized as being from the NACO Authority File and the Authority ID misses when looking at the search results and they are missing from the Source filters.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><img width="602" height="128" style="width:6.2708in;height:1.3333in" id="Picture_x0020_11" src="cid:image002.png@01D7A0AE.8B2488E0"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">This last bit puzzles me because in the record the Record ID for the NACO-file is labelled as being the primary label.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><img width="221" height="88" style="width:2.302in;height:.9166in" id="Picture_x0020_10" src="cid:image003.png@01D7A0AE.8B2488E0"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Q: Why is there a primary label there, if the system does not take it into account? Do other people also find this to be a problem?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">On a related issue, when exporting to MARC21 the ID was added to $0 of the 1XX, 7XX, 6XX fields. I know it is not customary to have $0 added for LCNAF, but for our Alma instance it is necessary to do the bibliographic
record linking (to authority records) by ID, because we have more than one personal name authority file in Alma.
