[Yulcat-l] Voyager 5.0 Cataloging Checklist

[Steven Arakawa]

For those of you who have attended the Voyager 5.0 Cataloging workshop (or 
the combination Acquisitions/Cataloging workshop), here is the link to the 
Voyager 5.0 Cataloging Checklist:

http://www.library.yale.edu/cataloging/Orbis2Manual/unicodechecklist.htm

The link can also be found via the Cataloging at Yale page in the Chief 
Catalog Librarian section (look for Unicode Transition)

http://www.library.yale.edu/cataloging/

The link will take you to the Voyager 5.0/Unicode Transition page:

http://www.library.yale.edu/cataloging/unicodememos.htm

On the Unicode Transition page, note also that there is a link to the 
Voyager 5.0 News & Updates page, where you will find a link to the 
PowerPoint Voyager 5.0 Cataloging workshop presentation.

If you attended the Friday workshop, I apologize for the problem with the 
copy/paste of the Moscow Philharmonic corporate name into the Connexion 
searching box. We had to substitute my computer at the last minute, and I 
had been using it to search for works of fiction by Madonna (don't ask) and 
didn't realize that I'd left the fiction qualifier in the search template 
when I tried to do the corporate name search on:  Moskovskaia 
gosudarstvennaia filarmoniia Simfonicheskii orkestr. I tried it again on 
Connexion when my computer was back in its usual niche, and once the 
fiction qualifier was disabled, the search worked as expected. As long as 
you remember to remove the delimiters, copying a heading from Orbis and 
pasting into a Connexion search window should be no problem. By the way, I 
was able to paste the same heading from Orbis into the OCLC Online catalog, 
and was able to execute a successful search as well.
