Checking Cataloging Records

Several checking functions in Polaris Cataloging help you maintain accurate and complete records. When you save or import records, Polaris checks for matching authority headings, validates the MARC format, and checks to see if there are duplicate records already in the database. You can also use these tools to check records at any time.

If you change a heading in an authority record, a dialog box lists the linked records that are affected by the change. You can automatically change the headings in the linked records to match the change in the authority record.
