Question: I'm entering new books over several days. I'm not sure I understand the New Table moving to Database concept. Why do they get held in the new table section and then get moved in batches? Should I be moving them after every 20 books or so or just once a day or once a week? Not sure how to use this.
Answer:
If you are entering a small number of items, you can do so directly in the main library catalog.
This allows you to quickly review, edit, or delete an item in case of an error.
Once you add items to the catalog, they are listed in the order they were entered,
which can make it challenging to locate and edit them later.
Use Add Library Items:
- Many items are added in one session (import from spreadsheet, import from MARC, auto-cataloging from ISBN list).
- Volunteers are adding items, and library administrator wants to review new entries.
- Test auto-cataloging feature, before using it in the main library catalog.
