Cataloging: Changing a Location
The following areas may need to be updated when a title is moved from one location to another:
Bibliographic Record
Call number prefixes in the 049 field can be deleted. It is no longer necessary to add the call number prefix to this field.
Holding Records (MFHDs)
Location codes in the 852 $b should be changed to reflect the new location
Item Records
The barcode must match the barcode on the item.
If there is an item record in Voyager, but there's no barcode on the item (this often happens with older Reference materials), delete the existing item record and create a new one:
1- ALT - R, T or use New Items button to create an Item Record
2- Scan in the barcode.
3- Look at the Location and Item Type boxes on this screen to check that they are correct.
4- CTL - B to save the Item Record to the database.
