[Wactclc-alma] Material Type

[Thomas, Kirsti]

Lynn,

Can you post some screenshots showing the LDR and 008 fields from the MD Editor? Open the Form Editor on each field before you take the screenshot so we can see what all the codes are.

If you take a look at the current version of the OCLC record in WorldCat, are the fixed field codes in OCLC the same as the fixed field codes in the LDR and 008 fields in your copy of the record?

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] Material Type

Hello All,

Can anyone tell me where the Material Type of Music, the music icon and “Music By Egan, Timothy” is coming from for this non-musical item? All of my non-music is displaying as such.

Titles and items do display properly in Primo but not Alma.

I checked the 6th position of the leaders in these records and they are correct.
I have looked in the DCMI Material Type Mapping, which I don’t even know what it is and could not find a definition of DCMI.
I have looked in the Physical Material Type Code tables and can’t see anything out of whack there.
I have searched the documentation and cannot find an answer.

In the item records, it does not matter if I assign a material type of Sound Recording, Compact Disc or Play Away, they still display as music.

Thank you,
Lynn
