Assigning a Title to a Different Selection List

If you are using selection lists for Cataloging purposes only, you can assign a selection list title to a different selection list. This way, you can reorganize your lists. If you are using selection lists for Acquisitions purposes, you may want to create a purchase request from the title. This is a better method to reorganize and narrow titles you are thinking of buying. (For more information, see Creating a Purchase Request from a Selection List.)

Effects

Horizon reassigns the selection title you choose to a different selection list.

To assign a title to a different selection list

1 Search for the title you want and send it to the MARC Editor process.

Horizon displays the highlighted bib record.

2 Click Status.
3 In the Selection field, delete the old selection list code.
4 Do one of these options:
If you know the code for the selection list you want, enter the code.
If you do not know the code, do these steps:
Click Codes.
Choose the code for the new selection list.

Note: If you have lists that have a status of “Inactive,” Horizon does not display the code. You must know the code of an inactive list and enter it in the Selection field.

Click OK.
If you want to, create a code for a new selection list. (For more information on creating a new selection code, see Creating a Selection List Code.)
5 Click OK.
6 Save the file.

You can now search for the new selection list and find the title. (For more information, see Searching, Reviewing, and Editing Selection Lists.)
