4.9+Project+Enhanced+MARC+--+More+Notes

There are a number of ways to enhance the information of MARC records that you purchase and there is a lot of information you can add to your catalog to make it more of a one-stop-shop for student information. This week we will be adding a number of new MARC fields that will deepen the information that is available to your patrons.

For the school librarian, there isn't anything more important as far as the online catalog is concerned than making it responsive to the needs of its patrons. Mark in his article, "CE-MARC: The Educator's Library 'Receipt'" (//Knowledge Quest// Sept./Oct. 2006, 35, 1, pp. 64-68) states, "a cataloging record that includes proof that the item's structure and content support a particular set of objectives will undoubtedly influence an instructor's choice of resources...." Another way of saying this is that if our catalog reflects the needs of our teachers they will be more likely to use the resources we have toiled in purchasing, organizing, and storing (if we are storing). I will use concepts from this article in describing the tags that will be the focus of our work this week.

Curriculum-enhanced MARC tags are those which go beyond a basic MARC record and tie the information cataloged to the standards and requirements of educators. Some of these tags we've already worked with because they are so fundamental to making our records relevant to our users:
 * **505** || Formatted Contents Note (used with collected plays, poems, biography, a book's table of contents, songs on a CD, footage segments of a DVD, parts of a kit, elements of a Web site, etc.) ||
 * **520** || Summary (summary, abstract, annotation, review, etc.) ||

This week we will work with the following:
 * **510** || Citation Note (where reviews are noted) ||
 * **521** || Target Audience Note (four main type of notes: age level, grade level, interest level, and reading/Lexile level ||
 * **526** || Study Program Information Note (Accelerated Reader or Reading Counts) Special instructions to students and teachers will be in $z. ||
 * **586** || Awards Note (Information about awards won - Newbery, Caldecott, Mark Twain, Truman, Academy Award, etc.) ||

**510 $a Review Citation Note**

//**[This field is complex because the different indicators with the tag provide different information to the patron. Here the indicators are very important. Pay close attention.]**//

 * The information for the Target Audience Note generally comes from somewhere on the resource itself or from the publisher’s catalog or the publisher information regarding the book.** The information in subfields b and c in the 526 tag may be the same as in 521.

Generate information for this tag as you find necessary for your school. Just be consistent. If a title is intended for an elementary audience, then use that information. If it is mainly for science teachers then use that in the 521 2# field.


 * IMPORTANT:** In Follett’s Destiny software, a search may be narrowed by Reading Level or Interest Level. When narrowed by Interest Level and Reading Level, the software is **looking at the 521 tag** and **not the 526** to determine the level, and thus it may be necessary to replicate the information in these two tags.

We will ignore the following two fields. I list them for information purposes only to show you how much information could be entered to enhance a MARC record: 521 3# $a Vision impaired 521 3# $a

 * Motivation/Interest Level**

**526 $a $b $c $d $z Study Program/Reading Incentive Program Note**
===**//[This one is COMPLEX because of all of the subfields. Note each subfield tells something different from the Accelerated Reader or Reading Counts information. For the purposes of this class, we will concentrate on AR or RC to enter in the records. Unlike the 521 field, the indicator for 526 is the same - 0#.]//**=== > 526 0# $a Accelerated Reader $b MG $c 6.0 $d 3.0 $z 194 526 0# $a Accelerated Reader $b MG $c 6.7 $d 1.0 $z 26514

AND EVEN MORE EXAMPLES

**How will you find the information for enhancement fields? Use any source you would like:**
> === ===
 * 1) ===**Lexile levels can also be found at the Lexile Web site: @https://lexile.com/fab/**===
 * 2) ===**Accelerated Reader's site is fantastic for giving you Lexile and AR information: AR Bookfinder @http://www.arbookfind.com/UserType.aspx**===
 * 3) ===Reading Counts **@https://readingcountsbookexpert.tgds.hmhco.com/bookexpert/default.asp?UID=F2E04E8CCC9F4575A8F23622F15DD31E&subt=0&Test=NA**===
 * Other sources you might find useful:**
 * 1) ===**Suggestions include JCKL's database //Children's Literature Comprehensive Database// and the Web sites for Lexile and Reading Counts.**===
 * 2) ===**Also, check JCKL's CENTRAL SEARCH and go to the databases and type in CORE COLLECTION:ALL for more reviews. (The Core Collection covers collection development for Children, Middle and Junior High, Senior High and Graphic Novels -- any of which is fundamental to the librarian's tool belt.**===

=PROJECT= >
 * Catalog the following using all the field information we have covered so far and as print books that you are holding in your hand.
 * **Reviews:** Find a review of the book using the JCKL Central Search or any journal or book subscribed to by the library. Each record has to have at least one review but I don't want the review to come from the open Web. Best would be if it came from a professional library source but I'm not making that requirement. NOTE: You will not be able to find a review of the specific books for this assignment (they are too old). As a practice for this assignment, find a review of the book title that you believe would be helpful for a student who might be reading this book for a class assignment.

>>
 * **Classic titles:** All of the books assigned for this lesson are classics. You will be comparing records that you find in BestMARC and other copy cataloging sources to the specific book that you will be making a record for. This will mean you need to carefully compare the source record you are looking at to the item you have been assigned.
 * All of these titles should be able to find Lexile ratings as well as Accelerated Reader information. Be careful because both Lexile and AR have **edited** versions of these titles which would affect the accuracy of applying the numbers to the item you are cataloging. You will want your research to **reflect the words of the author** and not an editor. Almost all of these titles have been edited for children - that is not what you want for this assignment.
 * You may have to look at a variety records of different editions of a title to find all of the information that I want in the records but there should be a number to choose from.
 * **Remember - new requirements:** All records must have a summary statement and at a minimum three 6XX fields as well as the enhancements that are required for this week's assignment.
