SWAN Member Staff:
As many of you know, SWAN creates new bibliographic records each year for weekly and some
especially popular monthly magazines. This prevents usability problems that can arise when
too many items are attached to a single record.
The weekly serials records for 2017 are ready for the arrival of your 2017 subscriptions.
A full list of these titles and their control numbers can be found on the support site
under "SD Cataloging" or through this link: Weeklies
2017<https://support.swanlibraries.net/system/files/Weeklies%202017.pdf&…df>.
If there are any serials titles that you believe would benefit from similar treatment,
please contact SWAN Support for consideration, and as always, don't hesitate to
contact us at help@swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> with any
questions or concerns.
We are also announcing the release of a new Helper for the Modify Control Wizard in the
Serial Control module: Change Title Link Helper. The Change Title Link Helper can be used
to sever the link between a Serial Control record and one title, allowing you to attach
that same Serial Control record to a different title. This allows you to
"transfer" a Serial Control record from one title to another. Please see the
attached document for more information.
The Change Title Link Helper will be available for use beginning Wednesday, 11/30/2016.
Please feel free to use this Helper if you think it will positively affect your workflow.
If you prefer not to use the Helper and would also like it removed from the available
Helpers in Modify Control Wizard, please send a ticket to
help@swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>.
Thank you.
