SCP Monthly Update December 2019

Update on Springer Collection: Based on a helpline request on Thursday, November 14, from UCB, SCP was informed that Springer had changed their openURL syntax from ‘springerlink.com’ to ‘link.springer.com.’ This change affects 8,300+ URLs in the PID server and a further 1,277 records in the campus catalogs. Our cataloger took this opportunity to instead convert all of the OpenURLs to DOIs. The catalog records were distributed on November 25th in the regular distribution file.

DDA Programs: Update on Airiti DDA: SCP removed 383 records of Airiti DDA discovery records that are no longer available for DDA. Most of them were provided in 2013 and a few provided in 2014. Campus bibliographers of Chinese studies were informed of this change. The removed records were distributed in file 191125.

DDA programs with numbers changed as of today, December 3, 2019: Airiti DDA (3,077 discovery records + 788 purchased titles), CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs (6,260 discovery records + 210 purchased titles), and JSTOR CDL DDA pilot (8,199 discovery records + 1,725 purchased titles).

Please report to CDL Helpline on
• Cataloging Delay (if more than three months): A title might have been missed on the vendor title list, UC-eLinks (SFX) might have not yet been activated, OCLC record might have not been available yet, to name a few things that cause cataloging delays. It usually takes about two-three months for OCLC records to become available or for items to become available for SFX activation when new titles are added to an existing collection.
• Cataloging Errors: Please include the OCLC Number (preferred), ISSN, or ISBN in the ‘Record Locator’ section of the form.

Holiday closure: Due to UCSD holiday closure, SCP will post the last SCP files for the 2019 calendar year on Monday, December 16. Weekly file distribution will then resume on Monday, January 6, 2020. We wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season!

SCP Monthly Update November 2019

SCP posted the distribution statistics report for the month of October 2019. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. They are color coded as: Net Increase (Green) — Net Decrease (Red) — New Package (Purple) — Removed Package (Orange) — Package changed name or absorbed by/split into another package (Blue).

For serials, cataloging end-of-year new acquisitions continues to be our priority. Our major record distributions were EBSCO. CINAHL complete online journals (386 titles).

For serials cataloging transition Phase II, SCP strategized the workflow and tested it out with the first package, the Literature online (LION) online journals. Records switched in batch mode were included in the weekly serial distribution file for 191028 containing “rc” code (both 599 DEL$b rc for the print and 599 NEW$b rc for the online). The 15 remaining records in this package that needed manual review were included in the weekly serial distribution file for 191104. For the details about processing, please see the CDLINFO article and Phase II FAQ page.

For monographs, our major record distributions were: ACM monographs (118 titles, including conference proceedings 116 titles), CRCnetBASE online monographs (66 titles), Elsevier monographs (71 titles in 15 subjects), IEEE Xplore online conference proceedings (289 titles), JSTOR monographs (364 titles), Knovel Library online monographs (68 titles), Safari tech books online monographs (10 titles), SpringerLink monographs (606 titles in 18 subjects, including: Biomedical and life sciences 66 titles, Computer science 153 titles, Economics and finance 53 titles, Education 51 titles, and Medicine 75 titles), and CNPeReading online monographs (436 titles).

For the new collection Gale Archives of Sexuality & Gender, it is taking longer to process than expected. The reason is that over half the collection consists of unidentified or misidentified multi-part monographs. In every record where this is found, each URL has to be checked and it’s enumeration verified. The records will be distributed in smaller batches as they pass inspection. SCP asks for your continued patience.

DDA Programs: DDA programs with numbers changed as of today, November 4, 2019: Airiti DDA (3,460 discovery records + 788 purchased titles) and JSTOR CDL DDA pilot (8,140 discovery records + 1,575 purchased titles).

SCP Monthly Update September 2019

SCP has posted the distribution statistics report for the month of August 2019. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. They are color coded as: Net Increase (Green) — Net Decrease (Red) — New Package (Purple) — Removed Package (Orange).

For serials, it has been another busy month cataloging end-of-year new acquisitions finishing the T&F journal archive and most titles of the Gale Sabin journals, cataloging more titles in the Cambridge journal archive, as well as planning and preparing for serials Phase II–converting print records to online records.  The major distributions were Cambridge online journals (84 titles), Gale. Sabin Americana, 1500-1926 online journals (1,205 titles), Taylor & Francis online journals  (14 titles), and China online journals (37 titles in 4 subject areas). We also added a new set of JapanKnowledge online journals (3 titles).

Note on SCP serials cataloging transition Phase II: On August 19, SCP distributed 860+ print serial records set for deletion with the usual 599: DEL|c1908xx.  These are records that should already have a distributed online counterpart SCP record. They are from all serials packages. The major net decrease for packages are highlighted here: EBSCO journals (372 titles: Academic search complete 180 titles, Business source complete 51 titles, CINAHL plus 22 titles, Education source 48 titles, Library literature & information science 20 titles, and MasterFILE premier 42 titles), Gale.

The serials Phase II transition by package will delay until after the EEBO URL switchover is complete.

SCP Monthly Update August 2019

SCP has posted the distribution statistics report for the month of July 2019. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. They are color coded as: Net Increase (Green) — Net Decrease (Red) — New Package (Purple) — Removed Package (Orange).

For serials, it has been the busiest month cataloging end-of-year new acquisitions such as Taylor & Francis journal archive, Gale Sabin journals, Cambridge journal archive, keeping up with aggregator database monthly updates (EBSCO and Gale) and updating Elsevier journals due to Elsevier closing access to the Freedom Collection and shutting off access to 2019 content (and content going forward) for UC’s licensed ScienceDirect journals.  New packages distributed: Gale. Sabin Americana, 1500-1926 online journals(6 titles), Open access resource selected by the UC Libraries. Hate in America online newspapers(20 titles). Other major distributions were Cambridge online journals(10 titles), Open Access journals(51 titles, including ScienceDirect 30 titles), ScienceDirect online journals(43 titles), and Taylor & Francis online journals (51 titles). The distributions also included a removed package: ScienceDirect online journals. Freedom collection(2,226 titles).

Kudos to Kate Garvey-Clasby for getting the Elsevier journals access updates done on very short notice. It’s a challenging task as our serials often cross multiple packages with different coverage. The Freedom Collection update consisted of either deleting Freedom Collection records entirely, or by deleting access links from existing records. For ScienceDirect records that had open holdings, she closed off the holdings in the 856 field with a “-2018.” Kate also had to generate Local Holdings Records (LHRs) and update holdings on OCLC. It required a lot of intellectual effort to design and craft sophisticated logistics to ensure the updates were done effectively and in the correct order. Kate planned it well and did it on cue.

For monographs, the addition of 36,885 records to the Gale. Sabin Americana, 1500-1926 online monographsbrings title-level cataloging for the monographs to a close. Following up on last month’s update on Naxos, 5,301 new records were added to the Naxos music library online audio main collection with Jazz additions and deletions soon to come.

Other major record distributions were: ACM Digital Library online conference proceedings(135 titles), Berg Fashion Library online monographs(37 titles), Cambridge online monographs(205 titles), CRCnetBASE online monographs(174 titles), Elsevier monographs(145 titles in 17 subjects), IEEE Xplore online conference proceedings(173 titles), JSTOR monographs (385 titles), Safari tech books online monographs(9 titles), SpringerLink monographs (670 titles in 19 subjects, including: Biomedical and life sciences57 titles, Computer science80 titles, Economics and finance48 titles, Engineering68 titles, Medicine 83 titles, Social sciences54 titles), Wiley monographs(18 titles), CNP monographs(91 titles) and Superstar. Chinamaxx online monographs (26 titles). The distributions also included a net decrease for the package: Gale. Eighteenth century collections online monographs(83 titles).

DDA Programs: DDA programs with numbers changed as of today, August 5, 2019: CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs(5,458 discovery records + 132 purchased titles), JSTOR CDL DDA pilot(7,010 discovery records + 1,402 purchased titles). DDA Programs without change: Airiti DDA(3,460 discovery records + 785 purchased titles), CRC Press ENGnetBASE online monographs(406 purchased titles (2013 package (105 titles), 2014 package (64 titles), 2015 package (133 titles), and 2016 package (104 titles)), EBSCO Japanese DDA(466 purchased titles), Maruzen eBook Library online monographs(311 purchased titles) and YBP/Ebrary online monographs via ProQuest(665 purchased titles).

Note on SCP serials cataloging transition, Phase II: After consultation with SCP-AC members and SCP system liaisons, SCP will start Phase II implementation to convert 44,000+ print records to online records. On August 19, SCP will include in the distribution file 800+ print records for deletion. These records are from all packages that they already have equivalent online records distributed in the past by SCP. Starting September 1, SCP will take a package by package approach to convert print records to online records. We expect to send out most of a package at one time along with notification to the SCP-AC and SCPSYS lists. We will include the Phase II implementation updates in the SCP Monthly Update as well. Please see this CDLINFO article for more details.

Note on SCP web pages: As part of the CDL website migration, SCP webpages are in a soft freeze period; all updates are sent to the CDL web team, so there will be some delay in keeping some webpages such as the E-resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc. current.

SCP Monthly Update July 2019

SCP has posted the distribution statistics report for the month of June 2019. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. For serials, major distributions were Open Access journals (95 titles, including DOAJ 61 titles) and Taylor & Francis online journals (13 titles).

For monographs, the new collection Gale. Sabin Americana, 1500-1926 online monographs(7,944 titles) was added. The slight delay in cataloging comes from having to identify the duplicate titles already cataloged in World Scholar Selections from Sabin Americana, 1500-1926, Eighteenth Century Collections Online, Making of the Modern World collections, among others, not to mention the appearance of duplicate titles/records within the collection itself.  SCP is confident the remainder of the collection will be cataloged in July. For details about the collection, please read the CDLINFO article here.
Other major record distributions were: ACM Digital Library online conference proceedings(80 titles), Cambridge online monographs (177 titles), CRCnetBASE online monographs(89 titles), Elsevier monographs(141 titles in 17 subjects), IEEE Xplore online conference proceedings (186 titles), JSTOR monographs(404 titles), Knovel Library online monographs(158 titles), Open access resources selected by the UC Libraries(1,753 titles, including eScholarship online monographs66 titles and JSTOR 1,678 titles), SIAM online monographs(10 titles), SpringerLink monographs(710 titles in 22 subjects, including: Biomedical and life sciences49 titles, Business and management 43 titles, Computer science85 titles, Economics and finance47 titles, Engineering61 titles, Literature, cultural and media studies51 titles,  Medicine67 titles, Political science and international studies 45 title, Social sciences63 titles), Wiley monographs(58 titles), CNP monographs(1176 titles) and Superstar. Chinamaxx online monographs(37 titles).

Note on Naxos: Following up on last month’s update, SCP has identified approximately 20,000 records to delete from our collective catalogs and approximately 35,000 to add as new.  This sounds like an easy fix but it is not.  The Naxos collections frequently overlap with Alexander Street collections, especially in the subject areas of classical and jazz.  SCP must be careful not to delete viable Alexander Street records while at the same time preventing the creation of duplicate records with the new Naxos content.  Time will always be a factor and SCP appreciates your continued patience.

DDA Programs: DDA programs with number changed as of today, July 10, 2019: Airiti DDA(3,460 discovery records + 785 purchased titles), JSTOR CDL DDA pilot(6,801 discovery records + 1,364 purchased titles), CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs(5,625 discovery records + 132 purchased titles), Maruzen eBook Library online monographs(311 purchased titles). DDA Programs with no change: CRC Press ENGnetBASE online monographs(406 purchased titles (2013 package (105 titles), 2014 package (64 titles), 2015 package (133 titles), and 2016 package (104 titles)), EBSCO Japanese DDA(466 purchased titles), and YBP/Ebrary online monographs via ProQuest (665 purchased titles).

At the end of 2018-2019, SCP has cataloged and managed:

Databases:  1,136 records; 1,165 package links
Monographs: 979,930 records; 997,705 package links
Serials:  91,727 records; 123,615 package links

Note on SCP serials cataloging: We are into the fourth month of Phase I of implementing separate record approach, limited to SCP new serials titles and related records only. For the implementation of Phase II, i.e., retrospective changes for existing titles on print records to records for online version, SCP plans to discuss with SCP-AC members at its meeting in July. We will announce it once the implementation date is set. Please check this CDLINFO article for more details.

Note on SCP web pages: As part of the CDL website migration, SCP webpages are in a soft freeze period; all updates are sent to CDL web team for action, so there will be some delay on keeping current with the E-resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc.

This will require distributing a combination of records to be updated, deleted, and/or newly added for each participating campus. This work will not be done quickly but it will be done as quickly as possible.

DDA Programs: The first set of 310 ebook records from Maruzen eBook Library, a new Japanese DDA, were distributed in May.  Other titles can be found by searching the database at http://uclibs.org/PID/330947.  As such, there will be no discovery records for this collection.  Title-level cataloging will occur only when titles are triggered for purchase.  For more details, please check here.

SCP is also starting to brainstorm and plan for Phase II, i.e., retrospective changes for existing titles on print records to records for the online version. The date for Phase II has not set yet. We will announce it before Phase II starts. Please check CDLINFO for more details.
Note on SCP web pages:  As part of the CDL website migration, SCP web pages are in a soft freeze period; all updates are sent to the CDL web team for processing so there will be some delay in keeping current with E-Resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc.

Note on Naxos Music Library: Naxos is once again moving content around in its collections. Identifying the titles involved and processing them for addition to or removal from CDL’s existing main and jazz collections likely won’t be completed until June 2019. SCP asks for your patience as these issues get resolved.

DDA Programs: DDA programs with number changed as of today, April 3, 2019: Airiti DDA(3,217 discovery records + 784 purchased titles), JSTOR CDL DDA pilot(6,162 discovery records + 1,158 purchased titles). DDA Programs with no change: CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs(4,189 discovery records + 132 purchased titles), CRC Press ENGnetBASE online monographs(406 purchased titles (2013 package (105 titles), 2014 package (64 titles), 2015 package (133 titles), and 2016 package (104 titles)), EBSCO Japanese DDA(466 purchased titles), and YBP/Ebrary online monographs via ProQuest (665 purchased titles).

Note on SCP serials cataloging: Starting April 1, SCP began cataloging new serial titles using online format MARC records and ceased the practice of using print format MARC records. The latter consisted of adding URL links to print records. This essentially acted as a composite record for both print and online versions. The change is happening in two phases.  For Phase I, SCP new serial titles, records started to be distributed on Monday, April 8, 2019. Where there are changes to existing records (e.g. coverage changes) we continue to use the print version record. Phase II, will be retrospective changes for existing titles on print records. The date for Phase II has not set yet. We will announce it before Phase II starts. Please check the CDLINFO article for more details.
Note on SCP web pages: As part of the CDL website migration, SCP web pages are in a soft freeze period; all updates are sent to CDL web team, so there will be some delay on keeping current with E-resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc.

Please stay tuned for the upcoming update.

Note on status of SCP cataloging requests: SCP currently does not have an automatic mechanism to notify requester when a requested title or collection of titles has been cataloged. SCP will try to notify bibliographer requestors individually when an Open Access title is cataloged but notification may not always happen. If you are wondering about the status of cataloging of an individual title (or package), please check for more information on the new collection request status page and/or OA journal titles request status page.  For OA journals, titles highlighted in green indicate the title is cataloged. For new collection/database, titles highlighted in green indicate database level cataloging is done; yellow highlighting indicates title level cataloging is done. The new collection request status page also includes information about SCP’s recommendations and JSC decisions.

Note on status of SCP cataloging requests: SCP received an inquiry recently that if a requester will be notified when a requested title being cataloged. No. currently SCP does not have automatic mechanism to notify requester when a requested title or collection of titles being cataloged. However, SCP provides an active link “Status” to cataloging request status pages for both new collection/database and OA journal titles on SCP webpage next to the request forms, also listed below in the “Useful links”. Anyone can click on “Status” to check the status such as SCP’s recommendation, JSC decision, and cataloging status. For OA journals, title in green highlight indicates the title is cataloged. For new collection/database, title in green highlight indicates database level cataloging is done, yellow highlight indicates title level cataloging is done.

Note on SCP web pages: as part of CDL website migration, SCP web pages are in a soft freeze period; all updates are sent to CDL web team, so there will be some delay on keeping current with E-resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc.

Please note: Some of the Shared Cataloging Program records you receive may be the result of a batch cataloging process. They may not meet the standards for full-level records.

Please report to CDL Helpline on

  • SCP cataloging delay: If any librarian and staff notice a particular title that seems to have been delayed in cataloging for more than three months, please report to CDL Helpline. SCP catalogers are very good at keeping track of the titles/collections they catalog, most packages updated on a quarterly basis. However, a title could have been missed in listing on the vendor title list, SFX has not been activated, missing OCLC record, to name a few. It usually takes about two-three months for OCLC records become available or for SFX to become ready for activation when new titles added to an existing collection. Longer than three months is a good cue that the title may not have appeared on a cataloger’s radar. Reporting via CDL Helpline will help resolve the issue.
  • SCP cataloging errors: If any librarian and staff notice an error in a SCP catalog record, please report to CDL Helpline. Because most of SCP monographic records you receive may be the result of a batch cataloging process. Reporting via  CDL Helpline will help correct the record.

SCP monthly update December 2018

SCP will post the distribution statistics report for the month of November at this page soon. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. For serials distributions, SCP has been focusing on cataloging open access titles, nearing the finish line on cataloging the collection of State Public Historical Library (Russia) online journals (adding 109 titles), thanks again for the cooperation of Peter and Kevin Balster’s student from UCLA. As a result, distributed Open Access journal (147 titles, includes 31 individual open access title requests). Other distribution also include: JSTOR journals (33 titles).

For monographs, our major record distributions were: ACM Digital Library online conference proceedings (87 titles), Cambridge online monographs (190 titles), Elsevier monographs (53 titles in 16 subsets), IEEE Xplore online conference proceedings (89 titles), JSTOR online monographs (410 titles), Open access monographs (58 titles, includes: JSTOR 16 titles, Luminos 28 titles, and OAPEN 9 titles), SPIE online monographs (650 titles, includes: conference proceedings 599 titles and eBooks 51 titles), and SpringerLink monographs (1712 titles, includes a new subject subset: Intelligent technologies and robotics monographs 156 titles; also includes: Computer science 144 titles, Earth and environmental science 236 titles, Energy 58 titles, Engineering 417 titles, Medicine 129 titles, Political science and international studies 227 titles, Social sciences 160 titles, and titles in 12 other subsets).

A note on cataloging about 600 titles of SPIE conference proceedings: Becky Culbertson enlisted Donal O’Sullivan’s help in creating an OCLC macro that helps supply commonly required codes and data elements to OCLC vendor records in addition to the manual enhancement of certain fields. Eventually subject analysis will be done at a later date. Kate loaded the records in batch to get records ready for distribution. This SPIE conference proceedings cataloging project is a snapshot on how SCP catalogers collaborate and get cataloging done in the least amount time possible while keeping on-going with their other regular duties. The macro Donal developed was also modified and adopted recently by Annie Ross for cataloging IEEE conference proceedings.

DDA Programs: SCP has sent the Airiti CDL DDA online monographs titles through OCLC DataSync processing. These Airiti DDA records will appear with a 599 NEW in the Monday 12/3 monos file, and will contain OCLC numbers in the 001 field. These are replacing the Airiti records containing the “p” vendor number in the 001 field, which are being sent as DELetes in the 12/3 file. We will no longer need to post special files/loads for Airiti DDA records in the future. DDA programs with number changed as of today: Airiti DDA (3,279 discovery records + 630 purchased titles), and JSTOR CDL DDA pilot (4,914 discovery records + 662 purchased titles). DDA Programs with no change: CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs (4,300 discovery records + 34 purchased titles), CRC Press ENGnetBASE online monographs 407 purchased titles (2013 package (105 titles), 2014 package (64 titles), 2015 package (134 titles), and 2016 package (104 titles)), EBSCO Japanese DDA 466 purchased titles, and YBP/Ebrary online monographs via ProQuest 665 purchased titles.

Note on reporting SCP cataloging delay: If any librarian and staff notice a particular title that seems to have been delayed in cataloging for more than three months, please report to CDL Helpline. SCP catalogers are very good at keeping track of the titles/collections they catalog, most packages updated on a quarterly basis.

SCP monthly update November 2018

SCP will post the distribution statistics report for the month of October at this page soon. This monthly report shows net increase or decrease of titles from CDL licensed and selected open access collections. For serials distributions, SCP finished the major update on additions, withdrawals, and embargo changes for journal titles in all the EBSCOhost databases. The changes for October were 83 new titles added (include Academic search complete 80 titles) and 23 titles removed. Upon finishing EBSCO update, cataloging open access journals has been the focus in October, catching up most of the requests. As a result, distributed Open Access journal (259 titles, includes DOAJ, 61 titles, and two new collections: Revistas cientificas complutenses online journals 92 titles and State Public Historical Library (Russia) online journals 30 titles). This latter collection is a group of Russian Revolutionary journals from the first half of the twentieth century. Peter Fletcher from UCLA cooperated with us in obtaining good print or microfilm records useful in derive separate electronic records. He has continued to help us when we have Cyrillic transliteration questions. Eventually this collection will grow to become 187 titles. We very much appreciate the cooperation of Peter and Kevin Balster’s student.

Another major serials distribution were two new Chinese collections: Chinese periodical journals (20068 titles) and Late Qing dynasty periodical full-text database (1833-1911) online journals (297 titles). Bie-Hwa Ma, Chinese metadata librarian, has been working long and hard, as well as team up with University of Michigan persuading the content provider to provide title list with metadata that met the basic of CDL technical requirements, such as title ID, url (still encrypted after long-term negotiation), summary, more detailed coverage, parallel Romanization element, etc. These two collections are also the guinea pig for SCP testing out adding records to OCLC via DataSync Service. SCP-AC members’ support on making exception to use separate record approach made it possible for SCP using OCLC DataSync to add these two collections to OCLC. Bie-Hwa had been working together with Kate Garvey-Clasby and Donal O’Sullivan, two SCP batch operation experts, developed sophisticated MarcEdit task list to convert vendor title lists into MARC records, tested out in June with 100 records, and sent the complete file of 20,385 records to OCLC DataSync in late September. Bie-Hwa also applied for a new MARC source code to store the title ID and content provider in MARC 024 field, for example: 024_7 $aW_29629 $2cnbksy. The new source code provides additional identifier to discovery and access to these two collections. Although there are some duplicated records generated and problem records need to fix, the overall result is positive and majority of records were distributed to campus. It takes a village to provide access to such a complex Chinese language package. Thanks to everyone, especially Bie-Hwa and Kate!

For monographs, our major record distributions were: ACM monographs (79 titles, include conference proceedings 78 titles), ASCE Library monographs (48 titles, include conference proceedings 44 titles), Cambridge online monographs (307 titles), CRC Press. CRCnetBASE online monographs (316 titles), Elsevier monographs (117 titles in 20 subsets), IEEE Xplore online conference proceedings (343 titles), JSTOR online monographs (375 titles), Knovel Library online monographs (53 titles), Open access monographs (322 titles, includes: eScholarship online monographs 26 titles and SpringerLink online monographs 290 titles), SIAM online monographs (11 titles), SpringerLink monographs (397 titles, includes: Biomedical and life sciences 39 titles, Computer science 131 titles, Medicine 50 titles, and titles in 15 other subsets), and Wiley online monographs (77 titles).

DDA programs with number changed as of today: Airiti DDA (3,370 discovery records + 630 purchased titles), and JSTOR CDL DDA pilot (4,773 discovery records + 623 purchased titles). DDA Programs with no change: CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs (4,300 discovery records + 34 purchased titles), CRC Press ENGnetBASE online monographs 407 purchased titles (2013 package (105 titles), 2014 package (64 titles), 2015 package (134 titles), and 2016 package (104 titles)), EBSCO Japanese DDA 466 purchased titles, and YBP/Ebrary online monographs via ProQuest 665 purchased titles.

Note on SCP web pages: as part of CDL website migration, SCP web pages are in a soft freeze period; all updates will be sent to CDL web team, so there will be some delay on keeping current with E-resource tracking page, record distribution statistics, etc. There were questions about the SCP note at the end of SCP monthly update on batching cataloging and the scope of SCP records not meet the standard for full-level records. Here were the statistics Kate Garvey-Clasby provided based on data pulled at the end of September:

77% of SCP monos contain at least one LC subject heading. The bulk of those that lack LCSH come from the collections below (mostly old vendor sets), with ECCO being by far the largest

Gale. Eighteenth century collections online monographs (ECCO)—130,467
Early English books online monographs—12,753
Naxos music library online audio—11,530
Early American imprints online monographs. Series I—7,625
Early American imprints online monographs. Series II—5,415
Gale. Nineteenth century collections online monographs—5,044
Airiti CDL DDA online monographs—3,201
CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs—3,127
88% of SCP serials contain at least one LC subject heading. Great attention is paid to the verification/addition of ISSN information including MARC 022, 222, and 776 fields. The bulk of those that don’t are the Dacheng online journals brief records (6,822 as expected). This number will go up as the Minguo periodicals are added, again this is to be expected.

The less-than-full records are mostly from OCLC (including vender records added to OCLC), including DOAJ titles. Because of the annual CONSER cataloging project, full-level DOAJ titles will eventually overlay DOAJ less-than-full brief records via OCLC daily updates. SCP also creates less-than-full records, currently most for Chinese packages, based on vendor title lists, such as newly added Chinese periodical journals. For these less-than-full records, SCP relies on OCLC daily update and set the criteria to receive notification if OCLC records updated to full, RDA, or added subject headings, etc. The updated records are re-distributed to campuses. If any records get manually cataloged, it would bring up to full level by PCC BSR standard. For Chinese packages, Bie-Hwa Ma takes leadership established several cooperative cataloging teams, one team on one collection modeling CONSER DOAJ project, with catalogers from several CEAL libraries who have subscription to at least one of several collections. Once records update to full-level, they will be re-distributed. For example, about 400 full-level serials records for Dacheng collection were recently re-distributed. Records re-distribution doesn’t reflect in SCP monthly updates.

We also rely on error reports we received via CDL helpline as well as from UCSD users and catalogers.

Please note: Some of the Shared Cataloging Program records you receive may be the result of a batch cataloging process. They may not meet the standards for full-level records.

Our major serial record distributions were EBSCO journals (61 titles, includes Academic search complete online journals, 38 titles), JSTOR online journals, (57 titles), and Open Access journals (130 titles, includes DOAJ, 91 titles). There was also a major transition for LexisNexis academic online journals becoming Nexis Uni online journals. The preparation for this project started in August that involves comparing title lists between LexisNexis and Nexis Uni, updating linking in either SFX or PIDs for matched titles, removing titles that are no longer available under Nexis Uni, and adding new titles. As a result, 2,502 titles have been migrated, and 1,140 titles were removed in December. New titles will be cataloged and distributed in the coming months.

As a result, a long list of Japanese e-books that have become unavailable because EBSCO lost distribution rights for those e-books, and the DDA program couldn’t continue. At this point, our users can freely access 416 DDA purchased e-books in our OPACs, Melvyl, and EBSCOhost. SCP removed all 2,272 DDA discovery records. Other DDA programs with number changed as of today: CNPeReading CDL DDA online monographs (2,543 discovery records + 34 purchased titles) and JSTOR CDL DDA pilot (2,102 discovery records + 186 purchased titles).

In March 2017, Crossref, one of the main sources for DOI URLs, changed the format of their link from http://dx.doi.org/10… to http://doi.org/… This changed format has begun to show up in OCLC and vendor records and should not be mistaken for an error. Further, Crossref is also encouraging its members to use the more secure https:// along with the abbreviated link. All DOI instances are backwards compatible and will continue to work indefinitely.

Update on Dacheng online journals [大成老旧刊全文数据库]. To increase cataloging efficiency and meet user need of instant access to big sets of Chinese e-resources, Bie-hwa Ma has initiated several cooperative cataloging projects among CEAL member libraries. Dacheng was the first one launched in 2016 by four partners from Stanford University, University of Washington, University of Hong Kong, and SCP.

Initially, around 6,970 brief records were distributed to campuses in 2013. We are going to replace these brief records with OCLC records contributed by the 4 participating libraries. Dacheng‘s workflow has been adjusted to facilitate the effort as follows:

  1. Bie-hwa identifies the titles with and without OCLC copy.
  2. Bie-hwa adds encoding level 3 (brief) records into OCLC for those titles without OCLC copy
  3. Participating libraries identify and enhance any existing OCLC records
  4. Once the cataloging of the initial title list is finished, these records will be added as a collection in OCLC Collection Manager.
  5. Brief records may be upgraded at this time by the participating libraries. In addition, new titles may be added. SCP will set up to receive automated notification of updates via OCLC Collection Manager.

As a result, 2,011 level-3 records with OCLC numbers have been distributed to campuses in the Dec. 2016 SCP file to replace the previously created brief records. Please note that most of these records have no coverage. They will be added at the time of cooperative full level cataloging. From now on, campuses will benefit from receipt of increasing number of records from this project.

Other Chinese Collaboration Cataloging projects. Another project is the Chinese periodical full-text database (1911-1949) [民国时期期刊] (25,000 titles) participated by four libraries from University of Michigan, Stanford University, University of Washington, and SCP. This will follow the same workflow model of Dacheng project.

The third project is China Academic Journals (CAJ). Since University of Hong Kong Library has finished the cataloging of CAJ and shared all of the OCLC numbers of records for CAJ titles including title changes, partners will identify and export the records they want on their own. SCP will soon export around 1,500 free full-level records that have not cataloged before due to hidden title changes, a major task on Bie-hwa’s to-do list since the initial cataloging was completed in 2009.
