Create an export profile

Note: The Export profiles subtab is available from the Bibs tab only if your library has Export Express.

To create an export profile

  1. On the Bibs tab, Export profiles subtab, click Add.
  2. The Add a new profile options appear.

  3. Select one of the following options in the Character encoding box:
    • MARC-8
    • UTF - 8
    • LDR/09 for each record
  4. To include holdings information in the export profile, select the This profile includes holdings checkbox, and do the following:
    • In the MARC tag for holdings information box, type the bibliographic tag number where the holdings information is stored.
    • For each holdings element to include in the holdings data, select the checkbox in the Extract Y/N column, and select the corresponding subfield to map to the holdings element.
    • If applicable, select the form of the data in the Form (if applicable) column. This selection is available only for elements that have more than one format. For example, an assigned branch has a code (numeric ID), a name, and an abbreviation. Use the drop-down list to select which form is exported.

    Note: To create an export profile without holdings data, you must select at least one tag to exclude from the profile.

  5. To exclude tags from the export, select the Tag(s) to exclude from export checkbox, and select one or more tags.
  6. Type a name for the export profile in the Profile box.
  7. Click Save.
  8. The export profile is saved and appears in the list of export profiles.
