Definition |
|
| ALL |
The status of the record. The system supplies Rec stat. You cannot edit Rec stat. |
Codes |
|
| |
| a |
Increase in encoding level. If the encoding level in selected records from national libraries has been changed to a higher encoding level by those national libraries, and the revised records are received through batchloading, code a indicates an increase in the level of cataloging, e.g., code a is used when a preliminary cataloging record (ELvl code 5) is upgraded to full cataloging level (ELvl code  ). |
|
| |
| c |
Corrected or revised. If a WorldCat record is replaced in any situation other than what is described under codes a or p, Rec stat changes to code c. |
|
| |
| n |
New. The WorldCat record has not been changed. |
|
| |
| p |
Increase in encoding level from prepublication. If a Cataloging-in-Publication record is replaced with the full MARC record received through batchloading (i.e., ELvl changes from code 8 to code or 1), Rec stat changes to code p. |
