You can set up MARC maps for indexing, display, limiting, or linking. This section explains how to set up each type of these MARC maps. (For more information on each type of MARC map, see MARC Maps.)
To change or create a MARC map
View: marc_map
Process: Administration\Index Control Menu\MARC Map Table
1 | In these fields, do the following: |
Field |
Action |
|||||||||
Marc_map Code |
Enter the code that identifies the MARC map. Important: Use the prefix suggestions listed in the table under Default MARC Maps as a guide in naming your MARC maps. |
|||||||||
Description |
Enter a description of the MARC map. For example, you may name the MARC map “Stitle” if you are creating a MARC map to extract titles for keyword indexing. |
|||||||||
Do one of these options:
|
||||||||||
Do one of these options:
|
||||||||||
Generally, you will want all types of MARC maps that you create to display one line per tag.
For example, if you want your Bibliographic Detail window in staff searching and PAC to display all additional titles as a run-on line instead of displaying one title per line, you can create a 7xx MARC map with Do Run-on marked. Note: The One Tag Only check box in the mq_index view specifies that only the result of the first tag is considered, so if the One Tag only box is marked, Horizon disregards the Run-on setting. |
2 | In these fields, do the following: |
Note: For more information on completing this Extraction group, see Understanding Conditional Parts of a MARC Map.
Field |
Action |
||||||
Tag |
Enter the tag that you want the MARC map to extract information from. For example, if you are creating an Indexing MARC map to extract author information, you would enter “100” as the tag. |
||||||
Part |
Enter the subfields or fixed field positions of the tag that you want the MARC map to extract information from. For example, if you are creating an Indexing MARC map to extract author information, you may enter “abcdfgklmnopqrst”. |
||||||
Conditional Part |
Enter which part (subfield or fixed field position) must contain the conditional value in order for Horizon to extract the MARC information, only if you want to set a condition on the tag you are extracting. Note: Entering conditions requires that you specify characters, such as the slash (/) before a position, and so forth. (For a list of conditional characters, see Conditional MARC Map Syntax. For an example of how a conditional character can be used, see Example of a MARC Map with Conditionals . |
||||||
Conditional Value |
Enter the value that the conditional part (subfield or fixed field position) must contain in order for Horizon to extract the MARC information, only if you want to set a condition on the tag you are extracting. |
||||||
First Tag: Prefix |
Do one of these options:
Typically, you would only want to display a prefix if you are setting up a Display MARC map.
|
||||||
First Tag: Suffix |
Do one of these options:
Typically, you would only want to display a suffix if you are setting up a Display MARC map.
|
||||||
Other Tags: Prefix |
Do one of these options:
Typically, you would only want to display a prefix for other tags if you are setting up a Display MARC map.
|
||||||
Other Tags: Suffix |
Do one of these options:
Typically, you would only want to display a suffix for other tags if you are setting up a Display MARC map.
|
||||||
HTML Format (Info Portal only) |
If the Display MARC map that you are setting up is for setting up linking tags that display URLs or other information in Information Portal, such as the 856 tag, enter the format for the link in this field. For more information on setting up Information Portal to use 856 tags [Linkable Tags], see the Information Portal System Administrator’s Guide. |
||||||
Distinct Subfields |
Do one of these options:
This option is specifically for Indexing and Display MARC maps. (For example, this feature lets you make full use of the enhanced content notes in the 505 tag.) Note: If you mark this option, you must make sure the Do Not Run-on option is also marked for this MARC map.
|
3 | In these fields, do the following: |
Note: For more information on completing this Conditional group, see Understanding Conditional Parts of a MARC Map.
Field |
Action |
|||||||||
If you are grouping several conditions in this MARC map together, enter a left parenthetical mark in the first entry for the group. |
||||||||||
Tag |
Enter the tag that you are setting up as the conditional tag. For example, if you are creating an Indexing MARC map to extract a main or added entry tag, but only if position 14 of the 008 contains a value of “a”, you would enter “008” as the tag. |
|||||||||
Part |
Enter the subfields or positions of the conditional tag you want the MARC map to extract information from. For example, if you are creating an Indexing MARC map to extract a main or added entry tag, but only if position 14 of the 008 tag contains a value of “a”, you would enter “/14” as the part. |
|||||||||
Value |
Enter the value that the conditional part (subfield or position) must contain in order for Horizon to extract any of the MARC information specified for the entire MARC map. |
|||||||||
If you are grouping several conditions in this MARC map together, enter a right parenthetical mark in the last entry for the group of conditions. |
||||||||||
If you are creating several conditions in this MARC map and you want to use operators to relate the conditions together, do one of these options:
