Adding a Bib Record to a Selection List Individually

If you have an existing bib record or want to create an individual bib record for a selection list, you can add the bib record individually to the selection list.

To add a bib record to a selection list individually

1 Do one of these options:
If the bib record is already on your system and you need to search for the bib record you want, search for the bib record and send it to the MARC Editor process.
If you need to create the bib record you want to add to a selection list, create the bibliographic record from scratch in Cataloging. (For more information on creating a bib record, see the “Bibliographic Records” chapter of the Cataloging Guide.)

Horizon displays the bib record in Cataloging.

2 At the open bib record, click Status.

Horizon displays the Edit Bib window:

3 In the Selection field, 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.)
4 Click OK.
5 Save the file.

Horizon adds the bibliographic record to the selection list you entered.
