14:47 Dyrcona Does anyone use the MARC stream importer with OCLC?
14:47 Dyrcona I have questions.
14:51 berick Dyrcona: affirmative
14:52 JBoyer claiming 1284 for (void *)
14:53 Dyrcona Can other staff see the queue used by the importer, i.e. can catalogers use their regular login to access it?
14:54 berick Dyrcona: it's the same as any other bib queue
14:55 collum joined #evergreen
14:55 Dyrcona So, yes?
14:57 * berick doublechecks the view perms..
14:58 berick yes, assuming the right perms
14:58 Dyrcona Here's the thing: We have 3 catalogers that are going to load records via the stream importer from OCLC, and we'll want them to all be able to process it, etc.
14:59 Dyrcona Also, I've never used Vandelay. Can you reuse a queue? That is, can you add some records, process them, then add more later and just process those?
14:59 Dyrcona Well, "never' means once or twice for one time tests.
15:00 berick yes you can reuse queues.
15:01 Dyrcona I thought so, but I've never done it.
15:01 Dyrcona Thanks, berick++
15:01 Dyrcona We're going to set up a test on our training server, and I think I know what I need to do to set it up, despite my seemingly ignorant questions. :)
15:02 berick Dyrcona: you can also tell the stream importer to import the records as they arrive so staff don't have to interract with vandelay
15:02 Dyrcona berick: Yeah. I think they want them in the queue and then they import/overlay later.
15:02 berick *nod*
15:02 berick that works too
15:02 Dyrcona Right now, they're all updating a file on a server that one of them imports later.
15:04 * Dyrcona seems to be having difficulty with task switching today.

16:05 ddale joined #evergreen
16:06 ddale Can anyone tell me how to get a report of the bookings scheduled through the booking module?
16:07 ddale Not the pull list but an annual report
16:15 jihpringle ddale: we have a report template that gives a list by barcode if total reservations
16:16 jihpringle we have it set up to be monthly
16:16 jihpringle it's based on the request_time column in the booking.reservation table
16:16 jihpringle does that sound like what you're looking for?
16:17 ddale Yes, that does sound right.
16:19 jihpringle ddale if you message me your email I can send you screen shots of the Display Fields and Filters in the template editor
16:19 ddale @jihpringle, thanks! It is ddale@georgialibraries.org
16:19 pinesol ddale: <shaggy>We're, like, doomed.</shaggy>
16:20 ddale :)
16:22 jihpringle ddale: screenshots sent
16:23 jihpringle we have several booking templates so let me know if there's anything else you're looking for
16:23 mmorgan jihpringle++
16:23 ddale jihpringle Thanks!
16:23 jihpringle np :)
16:27 Bmagic forgive my lack of cataloging expierence. But I've just manually linked a 650 to an authority record, and Evergreen plopped this little nugget into the MARC $0(Set cat.marc_control_number_identifier in Library Settings)2
16:28 Bmagic I went and found the code that created that. It's a result of that setting being null. OK, then, I'll set that setting. The setting description is a bit vegue
16:28 Bmagic vague
16:28 Bmagic "Defines the control number identifier used in 003 and 035 fields."
16:31 Bmagic and now, I assume that without this library setting, the bib link does nothing. I need to set it to be equal to the Authority record's field? Like "150" ?

17:25 jeff Bmagic: the value of the setting in question is often a MARC organization code. More information on those here: https://www.loc.gov/marc/organizations/ and also mentioned by the 003 and 035 field defs, i.e. https://loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd003.html
17:26 Bmagic jeff: sweet! In other words, it's nothing functional for Evergreen?
17:26 jeff Bmagic: for example, I believe PINES has theirs set to GaAaGPL
17:30 jeff I don't know offhand what the impact is if you have it unset. I think it's recommended to have it set to something if you have maintain_control_numbers enabled, but it might be required/preferred even with that off.
17:35 Bmagic I'm still chasing down the code that should* be giving me authority search results when the search term from the authority record tag 550 is searched for. I think I'm really close
17:36 Bmagic This table: authority.control_set_authority_field  contains the glue. select * from authority.control_set_authority_field where tag in('550','450')
17:37 Bmagic (I'm sure this is all stock default) - shows me that my database is configured to "consume" the 450 and the 550. The search is working when I use anything from the 450 (working in this context means that Evergreen gives me the "see also" stuff)
17:38 Bmagic I think where it breaks down is authority.simple_heading
17:38 Bmagic That table is not* receiving rows from the authority record's 550 field
17:50 Bmagic I'm mistaken on that, the 550 is in the authority.simple_heading, somewhere along the search, my 550 stuff is getting omitted
17:51 Bmagic I'm currently disecting FUNCTION metabib.browse
18:01 pinesol News from qatests: Testing Success <http://testing.evergreen-ils.org/~live>
18:25 Bmagic I think it's this hardcoded string in the function: AND ahf.heading_purpose IN (' || $$'variant'$$ || ')
