DELETING BIBLIOGRAPHIC RECORDS IMPORTED IN ERROR

Record Maintenance Procedures

BACKGROUND

Use this procedure to delete records imported in error from OCLC or RLIN that do not yet have MFHDs.

The only records that may be deleted from CLIO are records that do not have MFHD or order records. In other situations, the record should be suppressed and relinked or overlaid. In certain situations, a supervisor may delete the CLIO cataloged records and any associated RLIN records or OCLC holdings. Consult a supervisor if a cataloged record needs to be deleted.

PROCEDURE

  1. Display the bib record that you want to delete from CLIO.

  2. Select RECORD from the menu bar.

  3. Click on DELETE

  4. Click on YES when prompted to complete the delete.
