In this presentation we’ll walk through the process we used to update 2.2 million bib records over the course of two months using database queries to identify records for editing, exporting with Evergreen, modifying with MarcEdit and then re-ingesting using the Blake Bib Magic ingest tool discussed at the last conference. We’ll discuss tips for finding records, things we’ve learned about using MarcEdit, how we do quality control on the records, and the reingest process. We’ll describe how this can be done without any special tools or technology for your instance of Evergreen or how you can reproduce what we’ve done.
