WorldShare Management Services: Record Manager

OCLC defines cataloging "etiquette" for WorldCat records in their Bibliographic Formats and Standards guide, specifically the Quality Assurance section.

WMS Record Manager users with Cataloging Full or Admin roles should follow the General Guidelines in Section 5.2.1.

Section 5.2.3 - Editing capabilities for PCC records outlines the fields non-PCC catalogers can edit on BIBCO (PCC) records (identified by MARC 042). While not enforced by Record Manager, these guidelines provide best practices for shared bibliographic data.
