[Wactclc-alma] Withdrawing items in batch by scanning barcodes

[Guidry, Wade]

Thanks, Kirsti.

No, we didn’t mention OCLC holdings management.

But good point, if your library is maintaining current holdings in WorldCat, then certainly you should report any withdrawn titles (as opposed to items) to OCLC.

Wade,

I was in another meeting this morning and had to miss the WACTCLC call.  Did the withdrawal discussion include a mention of the fact that people should also remove holdings from OCLC WorldCat when they withdraw cataloged items from Alma?

I’ll add this one to today’s meeting notes, but just wanted to highlight for Colleen and others…

If you’re pulling items off the shelf to weed, and can scan the barcodes into a text files, you can run the ‘withdraw items’ job against that file, as follows:
