Creating a New MARC Record

To open a new bib or authority record, you create one from a workform. (A workform is a template used to make MARC records.) A workform includes certain fields to help remind you what information the record for a particular type of item needs. (For more information on workforms, see Workforms.)

To create a new MARC record

1 In Horizon, do one of these options:

To create an authority record

To create a bib record

Start the Create New Auth process.

The default location of this process is the Cataloging\ Authority Record folder on the navigation bar.

Start the Create New Bib process.

The default location of this process is the Cataloging\ Bibliographic Record folder on the navigation bar.

2 Choose the workform that you want to use to create the new MARC record.
3 Click OK.

Horizon opens the workform that you chose.
