2)First, identify the duplicate by retrieving the bibliographic record in the cataloging module using the bibliographic record ID number from the email. This is the number found after the words “Adding Bib record.”

  1. After retrieving the bibliographic record, copy (Highlight + Ctrl + C) the main title from the record and search Voyager for another copy of the book.

3)If another YBP bibliographic record appears (YBP records can be easily identified because all of the writing uses capital letters), determine whether the book was purposely ordered twice by the selector or if the order was placed in error. If you are unsure, check with the selector.

4)If the book was ordered in error, the line item, item record, MFHD, and bibliographic record can be deleted. If you do not have authorization to delete a bibliographic record, please contact the appropriate staff member in your department and provide him/her with the bibliographic number of the record that must be deleted.

5)If a second copy of the book was purposely ordered:

a. Copy (Highlight + Ctrl + C) the bibliographic record number from the email.

  1. Retrieve the bibliographic record using the bibliographic number you just copied from the email by going to “Record” – “Retrieve by record id” – “Bibliographic” and paste (Ctrl + V) the number into the box labeled “Enter the record id.”
  1. Copy (Highlight + Ctrl + C) the title in the bibliographic record.
  1. Paste the title into the search box to do a title search. From the title index, highlight the YBP title (obvious because of ALL CAPITAL LETTERS) and select “OK.”
  1. From the YBP bibliographic record, click “Get Hldgs.” From the MFHD, click on “Record” then “Relink holding to bibliographic…”
  1. Go back to the email you received from YBP and again copy the bibliographic number as was done in Step a. Then paste (Ctrl + V) the bibliographic number into the box in Voyager and click “OK.”
  1. Next, get the purchase order number from the email and open the purchase order in Acquisitions.
  1. Identify the line item of the book and click “Quick Line Item.” Then copy the quick line item screen (Ctrl + Alt + Print Screen), paste (Ctrl + V) the quick line item screen into a Word document, and print the document so you can use the information to create a new line item.
  1. You may then delete the line item by clicking “Delete Line” while the line item is still highlighted. Then click “Add Line (Bib Search).”
  1. You must then do a search for the title of the book and create a line item for the bibliographic record you wish to keep (i.e. not the provisional YBP record).
  1. Highlight the new line item and click “Quick Line Item.” Then fill in each field from the printout you made earlier.
  1. After entering all of the information, click “Save” in the quick line item. You may then proceed to Section I of this document to approve the purchase order.
  1. After approving the purchase orderyou must go back to cataloging, look up the title again, and delete the provisional YBP bibliographic record. If you don’t have permission to delete the bibliographic record, write down the bib record number found at the top of the screen and notify your supervisor/department head that it needs to be deleted.
  1. Finally, make a note that the YBP bibliographic record for this title that will be loaded after the books are received must be deleted. Make this note in the space provided on the checklist.
